I don't think I'm in a good enough place mentally at the moment to do that (high stress, uncertainty, and a need to be in control for this class - that would require too much explanation that I don't want to get into at the moment). So now wouldn't be a good time to try it. It would be all too easy to slip beneath the waves quickly.Steve Buchheithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12999709767641212586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19111384.post-71394042197809246872011-06-21T21:55:10.487-04:002011-06-21T21:55:10.487-04:00Well, it was more of a schedule mixup.

I had my prescription ready (hit the expiration date), had called in the metformin, and was all ready to pick them all up on Monday afternoon on the way home. Unfortunately that was the weekend I got the syllabus to the online class and realized it would be less of a schedule issue if I took the regular class, both started that Monday. So I didn't go that way home to get my meds until Friday. I had enough metformin to last, but had run out of the Welbutrin Sunday night.<br /><br />I don't think I'm ready to give up on my hope to go med free. I take them because I have to. And they help. But just like the metformin, I want to get myself to the point that I don't need it. <br /><br />The good thing is that I know my tell-tails. Or at least I know the majority of them. So when I've gone off them before voluntarily, I've been able to notice when Big D started in again. And I would start taking the meds again. Each time I've done that I've made it longer (first was two weeks, second was a month and a half). <br /><br />I will say, I would rather take the meds for life than go through another couple of years in the grips of Big D. I never want to go back there again.Steve Buchheithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12999709767641212586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19111384.post-39216700110490549502011-06-21T17:08:08.854-04:002011-06-21T17:08:08.854-04:00Don't do anything silly re the Big D meds. :)
