Around 5 weeks ago I wrote a post in 30 days only, about feeling like a failure, trying to distance myself from family, constantly worry and getting upset and comfort eating. I was told I had depression and anxiety and prescribed Fluoxetine 20mg.
I lost my previous post which was really helping me so I wanted to start a new one.
I had a review appointment last week and I am now on Fluoxetine 40mg as although I have stopped comfort eating I am still not sleeping great and still worrying a lot. There are happier days now though I passed my first Open Uni assignment, which I was amazed about as I was really struggling when I wrote it.
I am feeling healthier, starting to like walking when before I would have done anything not to walk anywhere. I am feeling more positive about the future, I'm not waking up every morning with a sense of dread about the day ahead. I still do get the dread and worry but there is maybe 2 or 3 days when I feel okay.
