It's amazing what drugs can do

It's been awhile since my last entry. Honestly, I just haven't felt like writing. I haven't felt like doing much of anything.

Today however, was different. Today I made a nice dinner. Today I did 8 loads of laundry. Today, I finished my lesson plans for next week. Isn't that amazing? For the last month or so I haven't felt like doing much of anything. I would come home from work and be so tired that I'd barely eat dinner before falling asleep. The weekends were just as bad. I loaf around doing not much of anything, and if I did do something like empty the dishwasher, I was so tired I needed to take a nap. For the last month one of the two weekend days was spent sleeping. I could barely get out of bed.

So I talked to my doctor. After talking with him for about 10-15 minutes, he deduced that I was depressed and put me on some medication. It took a little while for the meds to kick in but I think today they really worked. Today I felt great! I had energy and drive again. I was motivated to work and get something accomplished. As a matter of fact, I even got ahead on my lesson plans! That, in and of itself, is amazing! It's amazing what the right drugs can do!
