I'm back--at least for the moment!!! Mood
Monday, February 23, 2009

I asked for medicine for depression last month.  It made me sick--I was dry-heaving multiple times daily and just felt aweful until I took myself off the med.  Then the doctor increased my trazadone which I have been taking--now I just want to sleep my way through the day and I can't sleep at night for some reason.

 

 I had a migraine last week--Derick was mad and was staying gone all week.  I don't think he casued the fever though.  lol.

 

I miss talking with my friends here.  I started doing more and then really exhausted myself and I got more depressed with the yoo-yooing, with the feeling bettter and then worse. 

 

 I was approved for social security disability.  I don't even know how much I will be getting or when I will get it (in the next two months).  But I feel validated about getting it.

 

Take care and hugs!

    Patty...congrats for the social security disability. That is good news. I miss you and glad to hear from you. Dry heaves from the anti-depressant? That's is really unusual side effect. Could it be you just had the flu? Trazadone is both an anti-depressant but because of its side effects, it is also used as a sleeping pill. Let your doctor know how you feel. Maybe the dose isn't right. Hang in there and keep in touch.

    Yes congrats on getting aproved for SSDI. You should get a big check for the back pay and then your monthly checks. Not much but everything helps.

    So glad your back, I missed you. Congrats on finally getting your disability. Hopefully you will start getting your checks soon. Sounds to me like you need to talk to your doctor about your meds. Maybe he can adjust the dosage. I take trazadone also, but I only take it at night because it makes me so drowsy. Do you take it during the day? That might cause you to be so tired during the day. Let me know if you get to talk to your doctor. Take care friend and have a nice day.
