Depression: "Just Getting Started" (Are they serious?)
February 4, 2006
A friend said that he’s taking Cymbalta, so I went off to find out what it does. I found the tips on their When You’re Just Getting Started page fun. I’m very good at “Defer Big Decisions”that can account for not bothering to get out of bed long enough to go shopping. As far as “Try to avoid stress” and “Be good to your body” are concerning, I’m certain that napping is an excellent way to take care of both of those. Not so good at “Be aware of your diet” I guess, but I did make a healthy pot of soup today. “Interrupt negative thinking,” hmm, okay I’m failing on this one; but I scored on “Talk to your friends and family” cuz my sister called me twice and during the calls I chatted with my brother-in-law and mom too. If only things actually worked like this.
