Due to a glitch in my insurance and the Latuda company’s lack of medication, I went about a week without it. Might have been more. I have been back on it for 4 days now, but have fallen into depression. I wasn’t sure at first, but after sleeping 20 hours a day 3 days in a row, I think that qualifies as depression.
And the crying.
sigh
I hate the crying.
The welling up of tears for (seemingly) no reason. The way they fall unabated, no amount of logic stopping them. They just turn on and off at their own whim.
What am I sad about? Nothing. There is no precipitating factor here, merely biochemical.
I want out of it.
NOW.
That sounds hard. Perhaps check in with your medical practitioner? Or do you have a therapist you see regularly? I need my counsellor sessions like a car service: every 3-6 months, depending on how much ‘driving’ I’ve been doing 🙂
Best wishes, G
PS: The world is in a mess, so there is actually A LOT to cry about in my opinion

The world IS a mess, you are correct. And blessedly, I have therapy every other week… with a therapist I have worked with for 3 years now. I am very glad to have her, but she cannot fix the med issue. In my depression, I accidentally threw away my Levothyroid, but it is cheap so bought a month’s worth so I do not get even *more* depressed.
Thank you for you kind words and support.
