I feel like these are grim times and naturally most of us are going to be affected. Probably reassessment of medication can help, but I would caution there's a limit to what medication can actually do. I'm sorry to hear you're going through this, and tbh suspect this may have a lot to do with long stretches of a straight line on my mentioned x-y axes. And while stability is desirable, that doesn't mean real events don't affect where that line floats on the y axis.
Yeah, it may be more than coincidence since it started this year. I try not to worry about things beyond my control, but it's been hard to look anywhere lately and not see something dark.
I've had to learn how to deal with things in healthy ways since "getting better" and this may just be the hardest situation I've come on since then.
Some of my stressors should be going away soon, and I have a few vacations coming so perhaps relief is near.
I hope so, my cherished friend. At least enough relief to chart our paths through this rough patch with grit and gumption.
I always enjoy your support!
