SO I didn't make it out of the house on my own - the fog was rolling in and the temperature had dropped a lot very quickly...and a host of other excuses I could come up with, but really, I just...

I fell asleep a little earlier last night - 3:30 instead of 5 but that's still too late. I slept past the 9-hour mark and hit 10+ but I guess that's still better than the 12 I was doing before. I'll...

After struggling with feeling a bit stuck, I managed to make it out for another walk today. All on my own. It seemed to go by a bit faster today than it did yesterday. I wasn't as anxious going into...

I had a hard time falling asleep last night - I don't think I actually went to sleep until 5. But I made myself get up at 1:30 - to keep to the 9 hours max rule.I was on the phone with my brother for...

So after some encouragement from my fiance (thanks IM technology) I made it out the door and walked a circuit of about a mile that included a stop at the library. I returned my book AND made it...

Freshly (or not so freshly depending on how you look at it) home from the second jaunt of the day. The 1.5-mile walk to the shopping neighborhood was nice. I didn't feel to anxious and I wasn't...

So, I got up after 9 hours of sleep instead of my regular 12+. I increased my intake of Nuvigil and added the food supplement my doctor suggested.I've made it out of the house for one walk to the...

I took the long way back to my car yesterday. So that counts as walking for a bit by myself, doesn't it?I'd better get on this goal since the doctor wants me walking every day!!

So I just got back from the doctor. As I suspected, I'm not responding as well to the medication as he would like. He said that although I may be feeling some improvement, I should be feeling much...

I'm a little nervous about going to my doctor today. I feel like it's a report card and I don't know how I'm doing. I went through the DSM-IV symptoms of depression with my therapist yesterday and...
