I'll be frank about this, as 'embarrassing' as it is, and it shouldnt be, but whatever.
Ive been prescribed an antidepressant by my doctor to help with my headaches.
No, Im not bummed out/depressed, but, honestly, it's embarrassing to say that Im taking one. I guess it's the societal taboo with it or something.
Ok, that's out of the way.
So, as stated, been prescribed to help with my headaches, and I think Im getting better, havent had a really painful headache in a week or so. One side effect is it makes you drowsy, typically take it around 6ish and by 9 Im ready for a good night's rest.
Last night I forgot.
It was the second time since the accident/seeing the doc that Ive forgotten.
I barely slept and when I did the dreams were frantic and scary. The other time was like that too. Fast paced, jumpy dreams. Barely slept for more than thirty minutes at a time until about 3am, that's when exhaustion kicked in
This scares the crap out of me.
I dont like medication, never have.
It scares me that maybe my brain is being changed by medication. Hell, it scares me that Ive had headaches for, literally, months now. But those have been getting better, I think. Now I have to worry about coming off of a medicine.
What a hell of a night.
Yall have a rad day.
