Okay when I saw my doctor re: this pregnancy she recommended I come off my antidepressants.
I'm nervous about this as me and my antidepressants have had a very lovely relationship for a long time. They keep me sane, I keep them in a nice box in the kitchen where they are safe and dry and warm.
So now I'm about 5 days off taking any tablet.
And I'm having a bad day. Now it might just be a bad day, or it might be that my body really, really likes antidepressants and does not cope well without them.
It might just be that I'm an hormonal cow and I'm always (well for the next 7 or so months) have days like this.
But I want to cry. I want my mammy. I'm thinking and feeling irrationally. Something really stupid has happened re a Direct Debit which is so not the end of the world, and not even in my control or my fault, but by the way my heart is racing and brain is going over time, you so would think it is.
I HATE feeling like this. It feels as if the world and his mother are ganging up on me. (And I like the world's mother - she makes nice scones)
I'll give it a day or two before deciding if I'm proper mental - but just now, I wanna go home!

Hormonal rant # 1: I miss Diet Coke...
I mean really,REALLY miss Diet Coke.
But I can't drink it because it suddenly tastes like the devil's pish.
Now you would think that would make it easier to miss - that I would be happy not to have the devil's pish in my life but I'm not.
Because since my body turned against the wonder of Diet Coke there is not one other single solitary drink that quenches my thirst in the same way. There is nothing which has beaten the opening of a can of ice cold DC and hearing that fizz before tipping it to my mouth and feeling the cool, caffeine-y bubbles slide down my throat.
No. Water just aint the same.
And juice is okay sometimes but it's very sweet.
Cordials tastes icky.
And I'm not a tea or coffee drinker anyway.
With The Boy I couldn't drink Diet Coke for my entire pregnancy and for a few months after and the suddenly it was like the sea parted and I was able to enjoy it again.
It's gonna be a long 7 months.
