Happy 4th of July everybody!!!!
Tonight,I am feeling okay.I had a pretty hectic day today.
First off,I did lose some sleep last night as a result of me not being able to take my medication.Yesterday,I took 2 St.John's Wort capsules to help ease my depression but I found out through my pharmacist that the combination of my meds and the St.John's Wort would produce too much serotonin and as a result,I had to skip taking my regular medication.So,I simply took a normal sleep aid that you can buy at any health food store and I tried to get to sleep.I did manage to get some sleep but I kept waking up in the middle of the night and having to start all over again.I don't know what time that I finally dozed off but it was wonderful to get some sleep but I didn't wake up too refreshed.Not only that,I kept having the frequent urge to use the bathroom today.Each and every time that I tried to relax,I had to get up to urinate and this really became a pain.It became so bothersome that I went to the emergency ward at the local hospital and just lay there in a bed and wait for them to get to me through the separate intervals that it would take.They gave me both a urine and blood test and fortunately,they told me that I was okay and that there was nothing wrong.But they told me that if anything should change,come back and let them know.They simply advised me to not drink too much fluids and not to drink too much before going to bed.They also advised me to make an appointment with my regular clinic for a follow-up to this and I promised them that I would.I will have to call on Monday and see if I can get a appointment very soon for that follow-up.The sooner the better.
When I got home,I bathed and I ate a light dinner.I also decided to do some last minute personal PC work.
The depression that I have been feeling lately isn't as bad as it was yesterday.I am still feeling the negative vibes and I am still hoping that I will get out of it soon.I hate feeling depression.It just makes me feel miserable when I want to smile and enjoy life.But I wind up feeling the opposite.I am hoping that this will pass and when it does,I also hope to feel better about myself.
Tonight,I am going out to sing.I am hoping that the night goes over well.I will also have a friend with me to share the fun with.Though I rarely have a bad night,I still hope for things to go well.You never know what might happen.I do have the feeling that everything will work out fine.Still,I hope.
The only good thing is that the whole thing that happened today had no impact on my SSA struggles.
As for the rest of the weekend,I have made no plans but whatever I do,I hope that it gives me positive benefits.
That was my day today and my hopes for the rest of the weekend.FJ
