Day 5 didn’t start out so well. I’m pretty sure they are getting ready to fit me for the straight jacket around here. Here’s a break down:
Side effects: Dizziness is coming and going but it’s not so bad. Still no sign of the Rash, so there’s a plus. On a more personal note, I have noticed that my breasts have been tender but I wasnt thinking that was a side effect until I did a little digging and found out that it actually is. ( As is breast ENLARGEMENT in some cases. Fingers crossed!)
Feelings: I had some trouble controlling my emotions today. Well, not really emotions. Just one. Anger. Angry out burst to be exact. I snapped at my coworker as soon as she said something to me this morning. Now in my defense, this girl has been pushing me for months. She was going through a really rough time in her personal life and we all tried to pitch in and make life easier for her at work. But now the crisis is well over and she’s just acting like a spoiled brat. So when she shot an order at me this morning that she had no intentions of helping out with, I snapped and let her have it. This is not like me. I don’t start drama at the office. I kill my coworkers with kindness and look the other way when someone shoots some attitude at me. It’s just how I like to roll. Drama free.
I also got into it pretty bad with my husband after our 1 year old cut his finger badly this evening. We sat there screaming at each other about whether or not we should take him to the hospital. I was for it, he was against it. I told him that it was going to be all his fault if something happened to little E. ( We did eventually get his finger to stop bleeding. ) This type of anger outburst unfortunately is all too common in our marriage. I scream so much sometimes my throat feels horse. I can’t seem to stop myself although I know it’s not going to do any good for my marriage. In fact, I think it is a huge factor in why our marriage seems to be falling apart right now.
I am really hoping that things like this are just the mood disorder talking and not something to do with the Lamictal. That would suck.
I know it says not to mix your Lamictal with alcohol, but I’m having a big glass of wine. Like, right now.
