I can’t lose sight of my objectives. Happiness is a dangerous distraction. Contentment is the destroyer of creativity.
It’s so easy for me to lose myself in spending time with another person. Even simply interacting so much with the new group of random music sharing nerds from the chat room I found has been exhilarating and incredibly helpful to my personal outlook.
I suppose I shouldn’t be so hard on myself for enjoying it and for reveling in my reunion with Kendra either. It’s okay to be happy and I am a pretty okay person who deserves love and acceptance just like anyone else. I just can’t let myself become lost in it and forget to write; I can’t forget to work every day on the goal of building a better person in the place of the sad shell I’ve been for so many decades of my life already.
I’m still taking Lexapro in 10mg doses in the early morning after waking up and I am still glad I am doing so for the time being.

How is lexapro working for you!? I swear nothing had ever worked for me. It’s frusterating.

So far I enjoy it. The side effects are manageable and the benefits have outweighed them so far but I'm staying cautiously optimistic until I'm more than a month in. i'm just about on my 2nd week.
Does it work for you now or was it another disappointment for you?

I’m glad it’s working for you. It didn’t work for me. I thought Wellbutrin was the only thing that might have made a small difference for me.
