sad

June 25, 2008

just sad today, i can’t pinpoint why

dropped my kids off at their summer activities this morning

went to a obgyn appointment and almost made myself sick with anxiety just sitting waiting for the doc to come in because last time i had a vaso-vagal response (yeah, not fun)

bought a cup of coffee 

but i’m still sad - cried all the way home from the doctor’s

i think i need to talk to someone about getting a low dosage of anti-depressants, i don’t know if i can manage this by myself

 

i’m tired too

    What’s a vaso-vaginal response??

    Sorry you’re feeling sad. Are you getting enough exercise!!/???

    I think since now I’m not nursing I might start on St John’s Wort and see if that helps me.

    actually it’s called Vaso-Vagal syncope - (nothing to do with the vagina :), basically it’s fainting. I’ve had a weird fight or flight fainting thing ever since I was little. It doesn’t happen often, but i can usually feel it coming on. Usually it happens when i’m under stress, or in pain or see other people in pain.

    No, i’m not getting enough exersize and it’s bumming me out!!
    It’s been a tough week this week, but hopefully things will turn around here soon.
