Patience in a Pill

I just have to say that I love my Zoloft. It’s amazing. I never have had this much patience before in my life. I can go shopping for modern office furniture, and household furniture, and actually say what I want and express my concerns.

This morning coming in on the shuttle to work, I actually asked the driver to turn on the air conditioning. It took some effort on my part, though. I was nervous about it. Thinking I could sit there and suffer and it wasn’t too long a ride… but then I got up the guts and I asked. That is a huge thing for me.

I have so much more patience now, I’m amazed. And I can even sit and just relax, which is weird.

For my whole entire life I have always felt rushed and stressed, and still it is a very odd feeling to try to be at peace. I don’t really know how. It’s a foreign feeling to me. I like it, though, and I’m learning to accept it. My doc said I should be on Zoloft for life and that is just fine by me. I’m really liking these changes! Of course my anxiety is not 100% gone, but probably about 70% gone.

    My meds are finally kicking in and patience is the thing that I know that I have picked up! It really is nice to move about your day without worring about crying, screaming or getting angry for no reason!

    Take Care

    Hi Molly, I agree! It is nice to be able to be calm. I’m glad your medication is helping you. I did the worrying, crying and screaming for no reason too. Now I can look at things that happen, that I would have freaked about, and can patiently deal with them. I like this!
