Last night was the first time in a month when I had a full night of sleep. Now I've been waking up at 8AM instead of going to bed at 2 PM. Don't have a lot of people to share with but I'm not sure how to describe how I feel. It's like the absence of a headache I didn't know I had. My body feels much lighter and energetic. Hopefully I'll get back to cooking for myself this week!

Congrats! I started mine in May of this year and can absolutely relate to the "headache I didn't know I had" feeling. I'm less agitated and more able to enjoy things. The biggest thing for me was being able to enjoy social gatherings again. Since starting my meds we have had 3 parties at our house. Which is more than we had in the 10 years prior. Really a life changer. I hope it continues to go well for you!
