I've been having gritchy, jittery, free-floating anxiety for several days ("free-floating" as in, no specific thing set it off, which is annoying as hell). Activity seems to diffuse it (I don't mean "defuse," just to be clear), so I'm going to go take a walk. I should be working, but this gritchy jitteriness won't let me concentrate.
Ugh, I had that in the aftermath of the shooting incident and my psychiatrist upped my Sertraline and now I'm just soooooo lethargic and sleepy. I can still only do the bare minimum of what I need to do workwise.
I just want to sleep till noon every day and have constant access to burritos and ice cream sandwiches. Fuck working. I need to pitch but I just... can't.

Can you take it at bedtime? (Or you might already do that, in which case I am not helpful.)
Can you take it at bedtime?
Hmm, I'll try that. If I took my dose this morning, can I take another dose tonight instead of tomorrow morning? Or should I skip tomorrow morning's dose and start on evenings tomorrow night?
I'd wait until tomorrow night. I think it's better to have a 12(ish)-hour gap rather than taking it 12(ish) hours too soon.
Lexapro (which is in the same family as Zoloft) made me tired and dopey as hell when I took it in the morning, so I took it at night. The bonus was that it helped me sleep better.
If you don't want to skip a whole day, you can take it a few hours later every day until you are taking it at the time you want.
The tea keeps disappearing out of my cup today. I have reading material and tea packed for the weekend; that's all I need, right? Also, I must remember to turn off some of ltc's electronic toys when she's napping. They feel extra loud today.

I seriously reached for my coffee mug earlier and was genuinely surprised it was empty. I suspect coffee gnomes.
Seriously, I made two cups so far and don't feel any more awake. Stupid tea gnomes.
That's how SSRIs made me feel too. Actually, that's how I feel anyway; SSRIs serotonin me to the point I can't function.
Man, I've got another author who's livid with rage because we edited his precious paper to style. I do not want to deal with this crap.
