Day 8 of lexapro - I cleaned so much today!!!
Felt i should post something positive here!
Yesterday (day 7) pretty much most of my side effects went away, but then today, after a bit of a cry it was like some of the clouds cleared and I got a burst of motivation! I did a small lymphatic workout, cleaned all the dishes, did the stove and microwave, organized the pantry, opened up the blinds all the way and cleaned up the trash.
I havent wanted to clean in forever, I was even so proud of myself I took photos of my work lol. Now im sitting on the couch about to go complete all my dreamlight valley quest and its so crazy cause if this was me a little over a week ago I would have been pacing, sobbing and doing nothing other than ruminating while obsessively googling symptoms. Its so nice to be even just a little bit productive again!
