I guess I have been on Zoloft for about three weeks now. It's been going pretty good I think. For the first time in a long time I feel like I am able to handle things and actually be happy about things and get excited about things without my brain holding me back.
These past two days have me nervous that I'll need my dose upped though. It won't be bad if I do, because most people do need a higher dose than me. My prescription was refilled for the same dose and I have to ask my friend to take me to get it. Maybe I'll tell her that I'll buy her lunch next month when I get more money if she takes me. My APRN and I are unsure if my bad mood has been because my sleep schedule has been really broken up these past two days, though, so we're going to wait until December 2nd and see. I wanted to cut for the first time on a while on Monday, but again, my sleep schedule was way broken up. She said I might be one of those people that doesn't need the average dose though and needs less, so we'll see.
I really don't like my APRN though and feel as if the only thing she's really good for is giving me my medication. I don't know why but I find her really weird. I dunno, it's like she tries to be funny and joke around and all but... it just doesn't work, it really doesn't. I find her personality more annoying than anything.
I registered for six classes: Intro to public health, intro to health promotion, environmental health, illness and disease, statistics, and creative writing. She doesn't like the fact that I am taking six classes and basically implied I should drop one because she doesn't think I can handle it. I'm not dropping one, and I WILL be able to handle it. I WILL. With creative writing, I have the prof this semester for another class and she's nice enough and understanding enough. My friend has my stats prof and says he's really willing to help you during class. That fact makes me think I'd be comfortable enough to use his office hours. I don't know anything about the other four profs except that I met one of them once and she seemed nice, but these four profs teach classes directly related to my major, so I KNOW I'll be motivated to do really well in them. I'm not ruining that for myself. DON'T tell me I can't do something. NOBODY tells me I can't do something.
I've also tried a vape recently, and even though it was non-nicotine I am thinking of getting one. Seeing the smoke was relaxing in a way.
And that is my life as of late.

Creative writing is so much fun! I loved that class. You'll have to post some of what you write if you get the chance to.

I'm glad you're doing well on the medication. Don't worry about it being upped. It'll just help that little bit more. You can do anything you set your mind to and definitely don't let that person bring you down. I know you're going to do great.

Glad to see that the Zoloft seems to be working for you so far! As you said, you shouldn't let anyone ruin anything for you just because they think you can't do it. You know yourself better than anyone else, and if you say you can do it, then you can! :D I do hope this semester goes great for you!Posted November 19th 2014 at 07:05 PM by Thereishope

I know that you'll be able to do it. If the pressure gets a bit much, just remember that you can rant to me.

I know Zoloft can have reverse effects on some patients. I have been taking Zoloft for a while now, and been getting even more depressed than before. Even suicidal. My doctor took me off it. I don't know if she is going to try something else yet, but i hope I can find something soon. I'm glad you've been doing so well. I hope your classes go well too. I know you can do it.
Don't worry, I believe in you.Posted November 20th 2014 at 02:43 PM by blueeyes_wildmind
