Round and round and round life feels confused
Like Kylie in her hot pants feeling they’ve been overused Carrying your bags, holding umbrellas in the rain Every smile electric, every word orchestral refrain When the best thing ever also just may be the worst Can instant connections, deep understanding ever be reversed To touch, to feel to shake like a winged Papillon Moonlit sonatas silhouetted in their song Dawn glimpses over the water, glistens on the main Simple pleasures, conversation, heart versus the brain Your favourite song acoustic, stripped back to the core Never give up hoping, encore encore encore

I support my mental health by taking Anti-Depressants, 200mg a day of Sertraline.
I've spent the last month cutting these down to 150mg. It may not sound much of a cut but you have to wean yourself off these things otherwise your head hurts (too much). Last week I went to Glastonbury, and accidentally weaned myself off coffee too (£3 a cup!) so my head is definitely hurting today. But you know what I'm actually pretty proud of myself. It was a huge step to start taking tablets to balance my mind up a bit, and its been a huge(r) step to decrease my dose, because that means I have to reply on my natural self more and not the chemicals. I'm not saying that my mind is sorted, and it probably never will be, but to have the confidence and will to take less of something which helps is a major major step. Still a long way to go, but one step, or 50mg at a time.... Take Care Paul |
