Sadly, there's not much to update.
I've been seeing my psychiatrist twice a month for the last little while, and now I'm taking Effexor and an anti-anxiety pill.
I am sad every day, and I cry from time-to-time. Anxiety makes going out a challenge, and I am filled with fear. Not a great thing when you're trying to prepare for the holiday season. I try to face my demons, though.
I still feel nothing positive. NOTHING. POSITIVE. Just that layer of angst.
I wish I could have my life back. The one where I was more care-free (I don't think I was ever care-free). I worry about being unable to regain my status in my career. I dread the thought of my worst fear since childhood being realised... that I would not have a successful career.
Of course, I haven't been able to go workout for the last few weeks... Circumstances and laziness on my part. I think it's been having an impact on my energy levels and potential for recovery.
Christmas is almost here... and I'd love to feel some holuday spirit.
Oh dear. I was so hoping for something cheerier. Have you had any input on how long anhedonia usually lasts?
