it’s been just over a week since I’ve been back home and I find myself still struggling with my emotions.. with this combination of meds I seem to struggle the most with anger and agitation, whereas before it was the depression that I had the most trouble with.. i’m not complaining about it, it’s just different.. i’m learning to employ new coping techniques that i’m hoping in the long run will help me to cope better with life.. I am still having a great deal of trouble sleeping and I don’t know what can be done to fix that.. ever since I was a teenager I’ve had trouble sleeping and it’s something I work hard to try to fix, but it’s not yielding at all.. i’m also trying to be out more and not keep myself cooped up in my bedroom, even though that’s what i’d like to do most of the time..
it’s an ongoing process and i’ll forever struggle with mental illness, but hopefully it won’t always be so hard….
