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!

What are you taking? I've tried a couple different ones - effexor, pristiq, lexapro. The yawning and sweating drove me crazy. If you start having weird thoughts, remember it's the med. For me the 'suicidal thoughts' were really just an absence of fear of death - feeling like I'm one of a bazillion people to have lived, we all come and go, and my like holds no more meaning than any of those before or after me.
