I am on AD also but sometimes the blues just take over, good cure for the blues is do something you enjoy but being on tx limits that.

Week one for me, I had my first shot on Friday night, went to bed at 9:00 pm feeling okay, woke up at 11:00 pm soaked, feverish, achy and this went on and off for about 6 hours. Saturday morning I was very sick to my stomach.  I never left the couch on Saturday, woke up Sunday feeling a lot better and today I'm okay and grateful to be working.  I only hope I can keep working through all of my treatment.

I was going to suggest your asking your doctor for some AD but then read you are already taking them, can you go up on the dosage?

Hope it gets better for you!

Well, this last week was number 11 for me also.  I took a nap one day and woke up so depressed and haven't been able to shake it.  I am taking ADs but I think sunshine is a better cure-all for me. I keep meaning to take better care of myself, like taking myself out to a funny movie but...can't say I'm always kind to myself lol. Hang on tight, because you know this rollercoaster ride is going back up again!

Hey I'm on wk 29 and I had a s**t day too.  It just happens, and I have no idea why, it was a gorgeous sunny fall day and I felt like I had a dark cloud over me all day.  Tomorrow will be better. This is not an easy deal, be strong.

I was going to go out on SDI and filed some paperwork. After 5 days at home where I went crazy with the scratching and my rash got worse. I decided to try to work as much as I can to distract me. The afternoons are tough and when I get home I am spent. I am only into my 5th month and have a lot more time on TX.
Hang in there, as they always say it's doable. Some days more than others.

The marathon was not so much as getting to the end, as was the sprint and challenge of each day. Idle time was a scary time, when nothing was going on, no work, no place to be and no challenge to keep you preoccupied from the things at hand. It is a time when the mind wonders to the recesses of ones inner self, to contemplate the true existence of ones being and thinking, what the hell were you thinking, lol.

I felt like that this weekend too, found myself really looking forward to work to take my mind of the fact I'm txing.  On my own it is too easy for me to dwell in the poor me's.  Work is a godsend these days...
