Having just been on meds for a couple of days I'm starting to think about going off them again. I take an anti-depressant Dothiepin which has the side-effect of sleep. I take it after dinner but it does give me a fuzzy head the next day. I was focusing well on my enjoyable life and detaching from anything that caused me anxiety. I just wasn't reacting to things and felt in control of my own life. In a way [it] will probably help me detach again because it makes me feel so tired that I let go of everyting and realise the world and people around me can function perfectly well without me helping them. Hope said once that you need to feel you deserve to sleep and the other night I felt I didn't deserve to sleep, as though I should be working and pleasing people all the time. That was a good insight which will help me do more work on loving and accepting myself.
