Update - Life 2 months After Diagnosis




Well, I know it’s been a while.  Been preoccupied.  My mood has been all over the place, no joke.  I almost went mental to a friend over nothing.  I could feel the anger and frustration building but couldn’t do anything about it except warn her.  Later I went home to bed, slept for about four hours.  I was still angry when I woke up, for about 10 minutes, then I suddenly became excited.  What is Borderline doing to me?  I can’t predict myself from one minute to the next.  I am going to lengths such as mixing co-codamol and zopiclone at night, then staying awake so I can feel calmness for once.  Fucking torture.  I want to ask for a mood stabilizer, but I’m worried about asking a psychiatrist I’ve only met twice to give me something.  


I am still waiting for the psychiatrist to phone me back, because I need to ask about coming off of the venlafaxine.  They are making me so depressed I have spent more nights than not suicidal.  I cry uncontrollably over nothing, because I convince myself there is something to cry over.  Someone hates me.  Someone is avoiding me.  I am ugly.  Anything, everything and nothing.  All I have done is hit my head, which I suppose is progress.  

With all of the above, my stomach has been giving me hell.  I can’t eat anything without being in agony.  My stomach twists and turns.  It’s the IBS I gained through my underactive thyroid.  Speaking of which, I have had tested recently.  I could phone for results, but it seems my bad luck that when I phone, there is nothing wrong with it, and therefore no reason for me feeling tired, depressed, aching etc.  I need a reason, because then it can be fixed.  Here’s hoping!

Cross your fingers for me that I can get everything I mentioned above sorted.
