Medication Chronicles, Day 9

Been hes­i­tant to write more because I’ve been so out of it I didn’t think it would make any sense. Decided to start tak­ing my pill in the evenings, which is seem­ing to help. I’ve been feel­ing com­pletely zonked out for the last cou­ple of days. If I sit still for too long I would just go to sleep.

I still hate my job. There’s no med­ica­tion for that, I think. I still feel totally trapped but not quite as over­whelmed. The panic is gone but there’s a lot more apa­thy in it’s place. Were it not for the fear of Kim and I liv­ing on the streets (or worse, with our par­ents) I think I could eas­ily walk out of there with­out a sec­ond thought.

Weighed myself this morn­ing, 221lbs., which is unbe­liev­able. My orig­i­nal diet goal was 220lbs but I didn’t think I’d ever get close. Don’t know if it will stick, though. I haven’t been eat­ing like I nor­mally would. I have an appetite but I am also a stress eater and– even since I’ve been diet­ing, this hasn’t changed. But since a lot of the stress is gone I’m not snack­ing as much. Also my blood pres­sure went down like 10 points in a week. Pretty crazy.
