I have now been taking an ssri (fancy letters for a serotonin booster) for a week and a half. Thankfully, the effects on my sleep seem to be winding down, though I didn't get much sleep last night. Once my sleep regularly returns to something that resembles normal, I hope to begin to feel a change in my mood.
I can say that I haven't burst into tears since the night before taking the medicine. For quite some time, I had cried every night. I am very thankful for no tears. I did get a little teary when people privately sent me kind and supportive notes of encouragement. Those are tears I can handle.
Overall, I think I am pleased so far. I am looking forward to taking more positive steps and will, from time to time, keep everyone up-dated on my progress.
