Not so great day.

As each day goes by on my new antidepressant, I notice more of a change in the negative direction. Don't get me wrong-wonderful things are happening in my life: my boys are going to school; Sam is in 2nd grade and Nick has started kindergarten; I'm getting closer to my kidney transplant and the weather down here in southern Utah is getting closer to its peak time: winter. Most of the country looks forward to the summer months when camping, swimming and BBQ starts. Southern Utah; however, is blazing hot in the summer months with most of the days being over 100 degrees! The rest of the year is gorgeous with the temperature being about 15-20 degrees warmer that the northern portion of Utah. So, I have so many things to look forward to, but my mood is just not on the same level as the events. My doctor has increased my Zoloft to 100 mg, which doubles the amount that I started on. I'm not sure if that is the reason or if I just need counseling. I am going to look into that and; hopefully, that will help. I really do get tired of my mood going up and down. Up until recently, I have been so lucky in that I have been on such a high just from surviving my illness. I really have not been depressed or severely saddened from losing my fingers or my legs! It has been incredible, but that; unfortunately, has changed recently. I will keep this blog posted on my progress.
