i've got a real busy and big day tomorrow. i see my pdoc for the first time since coming out of the hospital with my alergic reaction from depakote. i don't know if she'll add anything to replace it or not. i might suggest topamax.

but i need to shave and get clean clothes out and change my socks and get to bed. i just need a boost to remind me that this is the right thing to do and i'm not just hiding the way i feel by doing this.

thanks in advance...tim

You know what you want, you know what you need, my hats off to you!! Your not hiding, your just taking care of the things that need taking care of something that is important to you, and that's what counts!!

I still find it a chore meeting the 'professionals' and the energy required to communicate to them is sapping sometimes.

I find the lead up tense too.
Treat it as a necessity.That's what it is.Like a daily necessity but spread out.

All the best to you.

Yup, a shave and freshen up always lifts me too.

You'll stroll it..then you can relax again.
