Hey KL -
I'm glad that your test is over. I was SO RELIEVED when I got my GRE over with back in June. I had been so worked up over it for months. Then every day I crossed my fingers that my results would come in the mail. It was supposed to take no more than 14 days, but it did take longer, of course.
I also have taken an antipsychotic - Risperdal. I didn't feel like it did much, even though my doctor said they give it to suicidal people in the hospital because it works so fast and they feel calm and all this stuff. I took it for a while, but eventually gave up, like with everything else. Then thing is, I don't care that much about feeling CALM right now. I'm not usually un-calm as it is... well, I'm sort of fidgety and agitated at times, but I can deal with it. What I really want is to not feel DEPRESSED!! That is my biggest problem. I really don't have a lot of these other symptoms you hear about - weight loss/gain, lack of concentration, etc. I guess I have a lot of mildish symptoms, but the biggest problem is just the actual feeling of depression, feeling that there is not much that I enjoy, and the only thing I really want to do is sleep, because sleep is such a wonderful relief from life. I actually wake up in the middle of the night and feel so thankful that it is the middle of the night. Unfortunately, the morning always comes. Anyways...
Well, I'm off into the rain for the rest of my hellish day!! (It really is raining, that isn't just some kind of metaphor, although it could be.)
