I have noticed, that something about me is not quite right.  My mood isn’t too bad, but I am not as happy as I have been at times in the past.
     I used to wake up between 4 and 5 AM, every morning, active before the birds.  Now I fall asleep, every night, by 8 PM, and sleep up to 12 hours a night.
     I feel like I am dragging at work, my speed and enthusiasm have been reduced.
      We went to a Superbowl party and I felt overwhelmed and had to leave at half-time.
      So, I’m going to try to see my psychiatrist on Wednesday or at least talk to her on the phone.  We’ve made some medication changes, recently.  I think we need to make another change.  Like a car, I need to be fine-tuned.

I’m Christine

My name is Christine and I am almost 45 years old. This is my very first blog. I am writing because I feel like I am living in a closet. But I am not gay, I am mentally ill, I have Schizoaffective Disorder. I also have PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). Not many people know this about me. I have been fearful of “coming out”, because, frankly, the human population has not always been kind to people with mental illness. But isn’t it time that we come to accept all of our bothers & sisters, regardless of their differences?
