Just sort of a venting post I guess.
In October my doctor added an antidepressant to my medications. I have high functioning autism and ocd and have been on meds for anxiety and the ocd for ever pretty much. The antidepressant made a huge difference in my mood and I really liked it but it also made me really tired. To fight the pretty much constant exhaustion I started sort of sugar bingeing.... not on purpose it’s just how it happened. Now I’m up 40 lbs and can’t kick this sugar habit. I went back to the doctor and they switched my pills around.
It’s been a week and I’m feeling back to normal already! Not craving tons of junk, not tired constantly and feeling mentally as good as before. I’m so happy and am going to get back to the weightlifting and calorie counting I was doing before October. I just can’t wait to get back to normal. I’m disappointed that I gained so much but I’m glad I at least figured out the issue and it’s on the way to being fixed.
