What's up with Janelly

Oct 29, 2007 11:00



It's been a weird few weeks.  Not realy bad, just weird.

I feel profoundly disconnected from myself.  I feel like I have no idea what my body's trying to say--is that hungry or tired or thirsty? Eating is a "because I should" sort of thing instead of "reaction to hunger" thing.  I'm sleeping more.  Or just not getting up.  I think that's partly because of the cold.  I do that every winter.

I feel disconnected from my emotions.  Everything is like a distant echo of what I should be feeling.  In some ways it's nice, because I'm less stressed about--well, everything.  On the other hand, I feel like it's a waste of money for me to go to the movies or whatever.

I got the test-thing for gall-bladder function on friday.  That was interesting.  three hours with an IV in my arm lying on a table with an x-ray lookin' thing above me as I freakin' froze to death.  They should know something in a few days.

I was diagnosed with depression ten days ago so I'm on meds for that now.  I always thought I'd be very angry if I ever found myself in this situation, but I don't feel much of anything.  It's like it's someone else, not me.  It's really weird.

I really want to write this week.  I put down 8 words of model-verse today.  It felt like an accomplishment.

I'm still going to the gym and Amtgard.  I am pleased with how my body's looking these days.  I'm down to 158 (losing about 1-2 lbs a week, so it's all reasonable).  Clothes that didn't fit a month ago fit again.  It's pretty cool.

HOpe everything is good with all of y'all.  Sorry if I've been weird or distant or whatever these past weeks.
