Well, here I go. I am in desperate need of a good vent session. Generally those are not pleasant for most humans to witness so if you are NOT me you may want to sit this one out(: I started taking lamactal on Thursday after stopping depacote under doctors care. The first day it made me dizzy for several hours and nauseous for a couple. I was told to try taking it with food. I think I waited too long to eat that first day and that is what caused the side effect. The other problems I seem to be having are headaches every morning which wake me up. It is my sinuses so the netti pot helps that to go away, but then I have trouble getting back to sleep. I have a burning in pain in my neck where my spine is that started only hours after taking it and has not gone away. Last night (day five), I started to get muscle aches in my shoulders and back. This morning I am very stiff and sore. I also noticed that vertigo problem returning. I have had it twice in the last two days. That is when I feel like the floor beneath me is collapsing. I have called the psychiatrist once already. I will be calling again today to let him know if the muscle pain gets any worse, I will stop the medicine. I will not take pain medication every day because my other medicine is causing pain. Okay I feel way better now. Maybe now I can try sleeping again. I am really tired so I hope I can get the pain to stop so I can sleep.
I am starting my own blog to reduce my boredom and give me a place to put my thoughts. Recently some people I know put some very difficult words out for all the world to see. I have been chicken to do the same and now I want to set the record straight. I didn't talk to people from high school for over ten years. It seems so silly now. I found out recently that I'm not the only one who grew up in college and beyond. We aren't kids anymore so the past is just that the past. I'll admit some of it I don't want to remember, but we did have some fun times in high school. The truth is something happened to me that I was not at all ready to talk about so I just avoided people. I got married in 1998 to a really great guy I met in college. We were giddy and in love. We decided after nine months of bliss to have a baby. Why not? I was bored and we wanted one. That sounds terrible to say that, but it is true. Boom one month later I was expecting. Three months later Jo
