My psych upped my anti- depressants and I noticed changes that I hadn't expected. I'm wincing when thinking how long I was below par...maybe a decade? All that lost time, but it's great to feel normalish again now. What did you notice?
Dealing with people in shops - I was always friendly and courteous (unless they were of the rude variety!) but it was as if my interaction jarred. I noticed genuinely good interactions this week, people were relaxed and friendly responding to me, compared to them being wary or dismissive before. I must have looked tense before.
It's easier to go out without being done up - suddenly I don't care if neighbours see me getting post in my PJs or I meet friends without being made up.
Physical pain is still present but it is dragging me down less.
Talking to strangers is easier. I have always been the one to start chatting at classes or events, but things flow much better now.
