Hi Kathleen,
I hope that you are good . I have been wanting to write all of this week and part of last week, but just keep on forgetting. I am now in my 5th weeks of taking Lovan (antidepressant) and I must say that my mood swings and irritabilty have vanished so far and it feels good , but somehow I also feel kind of weird. Prior to the Arimidex I was fine, eventhough I still had my black days but at least I wasn't on cloud 14. And now with the Lovan as well , I feel like I am really floating . I am not used to being so relaxed and although in a way I don't mind , I just don't know how I feel...the doctor told me that it would help me sleep better, but that is not the case and in the morning a little after waking up I feel like I just want to sleep and I also feel tired. I know that this cold weather is not helping, but honestly I really feel numb sometimes and I forget things ...it is like I no longer have control of my life . Sometimes I feel really low and even a little depress...I think ?...not sure.? Is this quite normal, or should I be worried ? I do have an appointment to see my doctor next Wednesday , and he will be asking how I feel...truly , I just don't know were to start and he may even think me a little on the crazy side, because I am that kind of a person that always smiles and laughs but many times I wish that I could cry but I cannot even do that. I am very confussed , please advise me .
thank you so much
love and hugs
