Second dose of Sertraline. I don't like it at all. Last night, I was really tired until I went to bed, when I suddenly couldn't get to sleep and got more and more awake as I tried to doze off. Eventually I gave up, because I was seeing things and it was all just making me angry. I ended up talking to Peb until two or so, and finally got to sleep at three. Those wretched dogs woke me up at half nine today, and I've been awake since.
I didn't get out of bed until twelve - just didn't have the energy. I feel a bit like I've been off school for a few days, and I'm still not 100%. I'm just exhausted and spaced out, which is annoying, because I really need to finish Dan's present, but I just don't have the energy. Usually I'm always doing something - but all I want to do at the moment is lie on the sofa and snooze.
Dan's stressed about the whole thing, even though I haven't said so much about it. He's tired, though, and the film he's working on is stressing him out too. He texted me earlier to say that, next Tuesday, I'm not allowed to get out of bed and he's not going to talk to anyone else. I was sad last night (why do anti-depressants have depression as a side effect?) so Dan says that next week, we can have a bubble bath, a cup of tea, a proper cuddle and gaming session, because that's all I've got the energy for, and he wants to cheer me up.
Zero sex drive right now, which is annoying. If the side effects haven't worn off by next Wednesday, I'm not going to take them until I get back from Paris. I don't want to be all grotty around Dan, and I won't enjoy it if I feel like this the entire time.
Not going to tell Mum and Dad about this.
P.S As a side note, I have zero appetite because of these tablets. I'm not going to complain.
