CatHerder's Journal, 16 Apr 16

I let myself get stressed out at work on Thursday. That coupled with trying to have a low calorie day was a recipe for disaster. In the evening my anxiety level went through the roof. I ended up giving in to mindless eating in massive quantities. I now know I need to somehow avoid the combination of stress/anxiety and being physically hungry.

I think part of the stress/anxiety is part of the withdrawal from the SSRI. I did relent yesterday and too a half dose as I woke up with a terrible headache. It appeared to help and I'm planning on staying on a low dose for at least a couple of days. It's been several weeks and the withdrawal symptoms are still pretty severe at times. I'm thinking that it may not be worth this to go completely off the medication. I really want to but the symptoms I'm going through is not helpful to my health.

I did take some time off yesterday and worked outside for several hours. I think the sun and fresh(pollen laden) air helped. I mowed the yard and did some spraying so I was active for over 2 hours. I have several things I want to accomplish today so hopefully I'll be busy which helps with my eating.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
