Feb 35. I'm pretty.
So today I took a big step and went to see the doctor about being put on some anti-depressants. This is a big step for me because I am the last one to admit that something is actually “wrong” with me. But after years of yelling at the kids, being stressed over EVERYTHING and always thinking there is something else that could be getting done, I just had to step back and take another look. I also think that I am going through pre-menopausal stuff isn’t helping the anxiety/stress one bit. I already have to take ambien at night because my mind works in such overload when I try to go to bed, I can’t sleep! It was good to talk to the doc and let her know my feelings and for her to not make me feel like I was over reacting and there was something I could do about it. So here is to starting on 20mg of Paxil and hoping my life changes for the better. I know for the kids and Matt they would certainly like a calmer, less stressful mom who didn’t nag them about everything and be constantly yelling. So here is to changing to a new me and hoping for the best!
