I haven’t been feeling so well lately. I’ve been dizzy and nauseous since last Wednesday… and it’s my own stupid fault. I had been taking Lexapro because work was stressing me out and making me very anxious. Unfortunately I didn’t like the side effects..
So I went to my doctor and told him that I wanted to stop taking it, but once you start taking it, you have to be on it at least one year. He gave me Wellbutrin to combat the side effects of the Lexapro, but that didn’t work either.
Anyways… last Friday I stopped taking the Lexapro and didn’t tell my doctor. Everything was fine up until Wednesday. I guess it took a while for it to start getting out of my system. Wednesday I felt super dizzy all day and I had headaches. That continued on Thursday and Friday. By Saturday I stopped having headaches, but was still dizzy. Today I’m STILL dizzy. Actually, it’s not so much dizzy as it is light headed. Kind of like that feeling when you get up too fast from sitting down and you get all light headed and dizzy, that’s how I feell all day. Ugh. I’m going to tough it out another week and if it doesn’t go away, I’m going to have to admit to my doctor what I did. 
So obviously, I did not go dancing Saturday night. There’s no way I could have done that. I have to move slowly or I get really light headed and I feel like I’m going to pass out.
Friday and Saturday nights I didn’t do much. Francisco and I hung out and watched movies, and went to bed early. Saturday, while he was at work, I went to lunch with Xoch and we went shopping. I bought a bunch of really fun stuff for my sister for her birthday. I had to put it away because I was wanting to play with it all. I also spent way too much money on stuff for me. Saturday was an expensive day! Xoch and I bought some stuff to make wax seals with our initials. When we got back to my apartment we made a bunch of seals on the back of one of my bills. We had to test them out, and it was so much fun. I don’t know when I’m ever actually going to use that thing, but if I need it, it’s there. I bought a seal for my first initial, I rarely like to use my last initial for anything.
Sunday we went to the pool and hung out, and foolishly did not put on sunscreen. So yeah… now we are both more red than a tomatoe, and in SO MUCH PAIN. I feel like my body is on fire. It is not fun having to be here at work with clothes on.
