Day 13 on Prozac: I don’t feel any sadness anymore, but I still get the remnants of anxiety. It’s still a bit much for me to go to crowded places, but I ease in to it the more I’m out. I’m still discouraged when it comes to this medication, but I know it’ll help me in the end.

Day 12 on Prozac: I woke up hella early with a throbbing headache from hell. I still feel very tired. My energy level is depleted at the moment. I’ve been feeling a bit of anxiety just due to my overall physical health right now. I shall continue to hang in there.

Day 11 on Prozac: I took it way later than usual because work was very hectic, and I didn’t get around to eating until 3 pm. I already as it is was dealing with stomach issues, and didn’t want to exacerbate them. My back is aching real bad, but emotion wise, I’m exhausted.

Day 10 on Prozac: I’ve noticed that my sadness isn’t as present anymore. My appetite isn’t the same either, and I’ve been eating less. I’m still doing my best to maintain my health, and working towards improvement. Slowly but surely, I feel as if I am getting better.

Day 9 on Prozac: I don’t feel anything, and it kinda worries me in a sense? I feel like I should be scared, but again I’m not? It’s a bit confusing, and I just feel like I’m at a baseline of neutral. Either way, it’s not a bad feeling, and I’m more so just not used it.

Day 8 on Prozac: We up the dosage today, and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t feeling anxious. I’m about to go out for some errands, and I’m feeling the anxiety but I’m changing my mindset of the “what ifs” to “even if”, so I can get through these obstacles in the future.

Day 7 on Prozac: I’ve been feeling lost and sad, and I can’t exactly pinpoint what is making me sad (besides the medication). I’m trying my best to snap out of this funk because I want to get better. I don’t want to feel this hopelessness, so I shall do something fun today.

Day 6 on Prozac: I didn’t have much of an appetite this morning. I keep having thoughts of “what if this doesn’t work”, but I’m trying my best to remain optimistic. I’ve been experiencing bouts of drowsiness, but I’m not trying to go down that route. I’ve also been exercising.

Day 5 on Prozac: I woke up later than usual, but I didn’t feel tired when I got up. I’ve been experiencing a bit of tightness in my chest here and there. I also got in my pool today and swam for a bit. Now, I’m relaxing for a bit before I gotta help with dinner.

On this day, 25 years ago, The Sopranos episode "Knight In White Satin Armor" premiered.

Day 4 on Prozac: I woke up with a headache, but it’s better now. My appetite has also decreased a bit, but I’m still regularly drinking water. I feel more clear headed today as well. I managed to get some chores done today, so it’s been a pretty productive day so far.
