Feeling better & Side Effects
Today is definitely a better day than yesterday. I woke up this morning feeling tired but otherwise ok, and I spent the day just kinda relaxing and checking out Google Music (beta). I haven't been triggered nearly as much today as yesterday which greatly contributes to my feeling better because being triggered causes me to get anxious about a relapse.
I am also concerned about the possibility of having another hypomanic episode. I noticed a while ago that they seem to be every two weeks, well this Saturday will be exactly two weeks so I am afraid it will happen some time over the weekend. I was thinking that feeling triggered and anxious like I was yesterday could precipitate a manic episode. I think that is what happened when I had the first manic episode that I was aware of around a month and a half ago or so.
On another note, I seem to have two side effects that I am dealing with regularly.
I am still having stomach troubles, and its getting worse. I am getting nauseous and wanting to throw up at times, especially before eating food. This is getting particularly annoying. I am not sure what is causing this side effect, or even if this is caused by anything. I might have a stomach bug or something.
I have been experiencing sedation during the day, which I think is from the Abilify. I see my pdoc tomorrow and I am going to ask to take my Abilify at night instead of in the morning.
