Sooo I've had some issues with tagging this last week. And I'm starting to really wonder if it's the new meds I'm on. Because the drive isn't gone. It's just... I can't really focus right now. And it bothers me because the meds were supposed to help not hinder me!

So that's why I might be picking random tags to reply to. Or not tag at all . Because my brain is mean
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
when did you start your meds?
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
About two weeks ago.
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
give it another 2-3 weeks
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Yeah I'm hoping it'll sort itself out. But till then the most common side effect is trouble with memory and concentration lol
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
may i ask the name of your new medication? (pharmacy is my domain)
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Sure. It's Citalopram

lethargy is a thing in the beginning, for sure, to various degrees. it's something common among our patients and i've experienced it myself as well
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
i was constantly in some sort of haze, it's difficult to describe
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Yup that too. Lots of that. that in spades
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
it went away after a month and a half-ish
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
oh joy. It goes away?
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
it does! it's just your brain trying to adjust
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Good. Good I'm glad.
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē
and then the will to do things came back as well
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Yes. I like being able to do things!
đ“ĩ 𝓾Ėˆ 𝓷 đ“Ē

I hope so too! Because finding my focus is getting harder >.>

that's the med I'm on (although I think I need to be screened for ADHD). Brain fog is normal for the first month.
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
Wow brain fog... That's accurate and the beat description for how I've been feeling
Jailynn
yep! I am so used to brain fog
N ᴇ ᴛ ʜ ◈◇◇
iirc brain fog is the 'official' term for it, too (aha)
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
It definitely feels like that. And I hate it. I want to do things but
𝘛đ˜ĸđ˜Ēđ˜ģđ˜Ēđ˜ŋ𝙞𝙖Îŧ𝙭𝙞𝙖 💮
I hope this fixes itself.
