53rd Effexor Update - Feeling Okay
May 18, 2026··
Only 5h sleep today, took a nap later. I felt bad and couldn’t wind down yesterday, drank a small beer, maybe that was enough to disrupt the sleep? So i guess i really accidentally took an extra bead out the day before yesterday.
Today was good again for a withdrawl week. Did some good gardening, played the instrument, only a little irritability. Let‘s see if tomorrow is even better.
Good night y‘all.
