eighth day of my 40mg fluoxetine diet, and pleased to say the day has been ok, no headache for once, no anxiety to speak of, a very loooong day for some reason, it's not even 10pm yet. the anti biotic side effects have eased as well, that was a bonus smile I do wish the weather would improve so I can get out the damn house, going stir crazy here, have'nt set foot outside today at all. Do hope everybody on here has had a nice day this first day of 2015, caio for now til the next time smile

      We are both at a similar stage and both feeling the same ish so I think we are getting there smile yippee. It feels so nice to b able to handle the side effects more rather then get in a state.

    whoop, fab news, you had a fairly good day, never mind the weather, wrap up, get some wellies on, and get out!half hour in the fresh air will do you good!

    im feeling a little off it today, been awake since 2 am, hot, chest is tight, think i may be coming down with some sort of lurgy, and as for what day it is, well, i seem to be on the wrong day continuously! just put the bin out, but its not bin day.

    i hope today is a good one, get wrapped up, get some fresh air, then home for something nice to eat!!

    keep smiling. xx

      oh dear that's not so good Karen, do hope you are not coming down with something, there's so many bugs about at this time of year. I will take your advice and go out for a wee walk, it's lack of motivation at this time of year! Must sort out some logs first and have a late breakfast, take care and I hope you have a nice day smile xx
