Med free since...erm... 2016

So I have made my appointment with the doctor. This is happening, I will be meds free. Well, there is still a while to go due to the fact that I could only get an appointment in three weeks time and obviously because I will have to be weaned off them; but woo, I'm doing it.

Having read up on the potential side effects when reducing and stopping your dose, (depression, anxiety, insomnia et al) I am still left wondering if I will be able to feel a change but I am looking forward to it. If that is the right way of expressing it. I think it is.

I am looking forward to med free me. Maybe other people won't be so welcoming, but I can't wait to find out what will happen. I found a useful page on the Mind website which explains it nicely, it lists the following possible symptoms:

• flu-like symptoms• electric shock sensations in head• stomach cramps• dizziness; vertigo• crying spells• sleep disturbance• weird dreams• fatigue• sensory disturbance• tinnitus• movement disorders• concentration and memory problems• mood swings• suicidal thoughts

To be honest, much of those are day to day aspects of my life. I'm confused again.

No matter, I'm going to do this and I'm going to find out. I'll find out how it feels and I'll find out how I feel. It is going to take longer than I would like, but I think it will be worth the wait.
