2 weeks since last drop and doing great!

[Abby]

Just wanted to let y'all know that after a hell weekend and start to the week, I am settling back into some semblance of normal. I dropped from 20 - 10 mg 2 weeks ago..it's been the hardest yet...emotionally I've been all over the show. I am noticing, too, that I am way less resilient to stress than I was...but it's actually quite cool, b/c I am anxious about things that need fixing..and it's productive anxiety, if that makes any sense...I can see it now as a signal to pay attention or act, rather than a catastrophe in its own right.

I still get very dizzy and zappy at the end of the day..I have been out of town on business for 3 days now, and working v hard...noticing that symptoms are way worse at the end of the day, when I am had-it...I just want to go home now I miss my husband and kids, I was s'posed to be home by tonight, but have to stay for one more meeting in the morning.

Isn't it funny how we're never satisfied? I spent all of last weekend yearning for time alone and no stress..now here I am in a hermetically sealed hotel room with nothing for company but a laptop, and I am just very sad and alone. It's that old classic thing. wherever you go, there you are...

I am going to wait another couple of weeks before I make another drop. But so pleased with how I'm doing!
