Hi everyone! I thought I would give an update. I had a very good appt on Thursday. We talked about how it is completely normal for someone to stop taking their medication because they feel better. She said to keep in mind that it only proves that something neurological is wrong and that is why the medication worked and I felt better. So, I have loyally started taking it. We were talking about the things that bothered me and made me angry and depressed. Basically, I am disturbed by the way I look and I am worried and anxious about my babies (mostly normal new mom kinda stuff). She told me to look into the South Beach diet or LA Weight Loss Centers. She also recommended just making one change at a time. One a week. So, one week I switch to whole wheat bread, the next I pick something else and just keep at it.
We also talked about how DH and I want to start TTC again in about a year. She said that the best thing to do now is to make lifestyle changes in my food areas, which will help me loose weight. She also said taking the Wellbutrin and Metformin and making changes will help me quit smoking again. I didnt smoke while I was pregnant, but about two weeks after they were born I got so run down, tired, sad, and angry I started smoking again instead of taking care of the problem.
So, I am glad I opened up and talked to her about all the things that were bothering me. I am also glad that I have finally accepted I need help with my emotions. I hope I can do all the things we talked about.
