It has been a week since I've reduced my medication. I was tearful today not because I was feeling sorry for myself, but just reflecting on how far I've come.

Hi there,

How have you been since you reduced your medication? Great to be able to see you have made progress.

I have actually been okay. I do need constantly reminding that my dose is reduced so I shouldn't do anything or put my myself in a stressful situation. I do look ahead to the day. A lot happier when I'm busy.

Sounds really good. Are you hoping to reduce down further?

I won't be reducing down any further.

Are you managing to keep busy? How do you spend your time?

I work part time, so I have enough time to balance everything out. I also spend time at the gym , have attended many classes where I'm able to push myself and it's a great energy booster. Most importantly it has to start with you. The changes you have to make has to come from within. My thought process has taken a big part in all this.
