Things are going pretty well, Penny. I started Effexor a few weeks ago and had a few REALLY good days. But now it's gone to a constant jittery agitated feeling. I'm holding on for another week to see if it goes away, because it does give me a bit more energy and seems to make me a bit more cheerful. And not one migraine the entire time unless I forget to take the Effexor! But agitated isn't good for me. It tends to make me want to hurt myself.
My therapist is out of town this week too. :( But I'm starting to miss him less as he is gone more often. I just feel rather detached from everything. I'm glad your regular therapists are coming back soon. Super cheerful positive people are so trying sometimes.
Overall, I'm pretty good. Believe it or not, away from this board I'm a calm, rational, rather detached person who is not overly given to external meltdowns - internal ones, yes. :) But not so anyone would notice.
The goal setting aspect of the IOP program sounds interesting. So it isn't for a set number of weeks but until you reach a certain number of goals?
