Day 16
 
Day 16 and I feel like a emotional mess. I have no desire to drink and the squirrel cage isn't to bad. It's the pulsating nerves in my body that's causing me grief. It's this constant tension that doesn't seem to get any better. I've made a Dr. appt for Wednesday to discuss this and follow up as she's put me on a Anti Depressant Cipralex and a sleep aid called zopiclone. I take them as directed but I think one of these med's is making me worse, each day seems to get worse. I should be feeling better, not worse. After reading up on both these med's, my suspicion is on this zopiclone which can cause restlessness, nervousness, anxiety the next day. That's exactly what happens to me, it starts in the morning and subsides by the evening but it's almost unbearable throughout the day. I'm not a Dr. so I don't know. I know we don't give medical advise on here but anyone have any experience with this?
