Why Do I Feel So Good Today?

I just don’t understand it. Sometimes I don’t know how awful I can feel until I feel better. This morning I woke up and I actually had some energy and spunk and I feel lighter and cooler.

I figure it might be because of a few things. I went to Phsyical Therapy yesterday, and they did the heat and electric stim, and then I got a neck massage. It was fantastic. Wow I am amazed at how much that can help.

Second, it could be because I went for a walk for 30 minutes with Tatum and Muffit. Can exercise help that much? I haven’t jogged for a year or so now. It kinda became work and I just don’t seem to have time. It takes me 15 minutes just to get ready to jog, especially in the winter. So maybe walking will be better for me.

Third, I am not sure if I remembered taking my sertraline every day this last weekend. I’m home four days in a row now, Friday through Monday, and although I work from home on Mondays I still don’t have a schedule quite right in the morning and sometimes forget my pills. I’m so afraid of going back to the intense anger and the intense humiliation I used to feel before the drugs, but sometimes I wish for the sharpness of life I used to experience. I wonder if maybe I could reduce my dosage from 100mg to 50mg? I am running out of meds so need to go back to the doc soon anyway, I am going to ask.

So I’m not sure. Maybe I just finally got rested up and got enough sleep. Hrmph. I wish I could tell which factor is having me feel better!

On this day..

    Maybe it’s the combination of all the things that you mentioned. The physical therapy, exercise and extra rest. I don’t think any of the three could hurt! LOL

    Glad you’re feeling better! :-)
