Pills

I went to the doctor yesterday morning. She was really nice, I don't know what I had expected, but in the end it was ok. I went in and she saw immediately that I wasn't the same person as I was the other week when I went about the gym. She wanted to sign me off owrk, but I said I would rathe be in work because if I was at home I'd only sit and mope. Time off work only seems to make it worse, at least if I have to go to work I have to get up in the morning. Anyway she asked what I was feeling and if there was any particular reason for it, and how I was sleeping, and if I'd thought about harming myself. Uncomfortable as I was about that particular question, I answered it truthfully. I find it hard enough talking to Pete about it, let alone a stranger, but there is no use hiding things from someone who is trying to help you. She didn't seem overly concerned about it, which put my mind at rest a little. She has prescibed mesome mild anti-depressants which should help me sleep as well, Dothiepin they are called. So far I have taken one last night and one tonight. I feel a little odd and they make me want to drink lots of water because of a dry mouth, but apart from that there's not a lot of difference. I suppose it will take a while for them to start working properly. I have to go back to see the Doctor in two weeks to let her know How I am getting on. Fingers crossed that they work.
