Day 24 So I should have written this last night but after a 5 hour round trip on a train I thought I’d spare you the pain of having to read my sleep deprived stream of nonsensical consciousness, I have no idea why as usually I just force it upon you. But last night I…

Day 23 Today I woke up 2 hours after my alarm was suppose to go off and 1 hour after I should have started work, good start. When I finally started work though, I did manage to record a new podcast whilst driving which I think I’m pretty happy with, I haven’t listened to it…

Day 22 Happy Monday everyone, I don’t think I’ve said that and meant it in a while. You know when you finally do something that you’ve been putting off or forgetting to do for ages, it’s such a relief, it’s like when you’re bursting for a pee and finally make it to the bathroom, all that…

Day 21 You may or may not have noticed that yesterday was the first day I haven’t posted a blog entry since I started my anti-depressants. I was still alive and on anti-depressants but I accidentally got too drunk at a 90’s themed night out and ended up getting into a bed at 5am. I…

They’re calming, soothing my irrational thoughts and helping me deal with them better.…

Day 16 Hello there, welcome to day 16 of my blog. If you haven’t read the other days don’t worry, think of these blogs like the 7 Police Academy movies. It’s great if you’ve seen them all but don’t worry if you haven’t, they’re all good on their own in any order. Except for Police Academy 6…

Day 15 Hello there readers of my blog. In case you haven’t read any of my previous posts I’ll summarise. 15 days ago I started taking anti-depressants after feeling very depressed and getting signed off work for 54 days. I only started taking the pills towards the end of that 54 weeks period, which I regret,…

Day 14 Two weeks, I did it! This is the second longest time, excluding relationships, I’ve committed to anything. Also excluding a job and bad habits. But this is definitely a good habit. 14 consecutive days of Anti-depressants and blogging. I’m proud of myself. I also feel so much better, the pills have really helped…
