My Seroxat Diary

Hello Bexie

You've done extremely well to go back to work after the terrible time you've had these past few months.

I know how it feels with these meds: you feel as though you've made some progress then suddenly it's back to square one again. I feel more stable now since I increased my med but it does feel like I'm slipping back again some days. Unfortunately these meds are never a total cure.

Let me know how you're getting on and I hope you're sleeping better too.

Hi All

I'm so glad to report that since raising my dose to 40mg (last wed) i've come on in leaps and bounds, eating and sleeping well and beginning to look forward to the future . When i went back to work i was still on 30mg and feeling pretty ropey, but i reckoned i wasn't going to feel any worse in work. I must admit the first few days were a little scary, but once i pushed through i got back into the routine very quickly. I softened the blow of going back in by popping into work the week before just to say hello to everyone..i think that helped a lot as i wasn't going in cold on the monday.

Mel, i'm glad you're stabilising a bit and thanks so much for asking after me, you've been a great support with great advice. Hope your progress continues...i've found improvements tend to be slow and subtle, but they are there.

Wishing you all health and happiness
Bexie
