have you got anyone to look after your DC whilst you go & lay down?

Although I don't feel tired and had no other symptoms I don't feel quite myself so thinking of stopping these tablets and reading some books to help me conquer things myself.

DS went to a party for a couple of hours. I feel better now. Just strrss of half term. Nothing worse than having to entertain a child when you are feeling down. I am going to persevere with the tabs now. Have tried therapy and nothing changed. Am positive that I will feel better in a couple of weeks. Think a good 8 weeks of tabs before I give up.
I know what you mean about not feeling yourself but maybe give it a bit more time?

Glad you feel better after a couple of hrs peace.

I've decided not to take the tablets and learn to not take things seriously and read all the books I can.
