Day 2

Okay so I cheated and didn't post on Day 1.  Partially laziness and partially too busy, you see a good friend from work is leaving us soon and a few of us went out to celebrate over drinks and dinner.  Anywho.

Only thing I'm noticing after 2 days on this stuff is a fairly intense headache.  It isn't anything that some Paracetamol can't fix, but annoying all the same.  I haven't noticed any of the other side effects I was told could happen such as sexual dysfunction, mania, bruxism or nausea.  

Let's hope it stays that way.

Day 0

First some background information without getting too detailed.  

I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder a few weeks back, following a visit to the Emergency Room at a local hospital that has a Crisis Intervention Team on staff.  I had some very strong feelings of suicide and knew it was time to do something about how I had been feeling.

Anywho, today I was prescribed with Cipralex.  I'm nervous about the side effects but on the other hand, I'm looking forward to seeing what positive changes it will bring.

Tomorrow will be my first day taking the stuff, and I'm hoping to use this blog as a means to document for myself the chances I notice and hey, if someone wants to read it - all the much better.

Tomorrow I begin, with Day 1.
