    Hi, me again, personally i'd be looking forward and getting away from the norm, and a distraction. when I was going through the side effects, all i wanted was to get away. Even went camping in the van -4 temp at night, but It was away and at the time thats what I needed. 

    By week 4 things may start to ease anyway, if not before, so dont fret, about it now or even when the time comes. Make a packed with yourself to enjoy yourself, no matter what.

    Depression/anxiety has taken enough of our enjoyment away, dont let it do it again, your taking the steps needed to get back to being yourself, again. Remember its the side effects from the meds, thats giving you doubts, try distraction technics when they appear

      By the way you will feel better, but we have to do some of the work ourselves, too, Walking is a fantastic distraction and feel good therapy.

      Im away in 2 weeks also, been counting the days, I live in Ireland, with wife, kids, family in the Uk, aint seen in 12 months. It will do us the world of good.

      My distractions walking, cycling, reading, diy(Im a carpenter), this site, camping solo and with my wife and daughter, and work, now the weather is better gardening.

      Hope to combine the cycling and camping when the weather warms up a bit more
