Less irritable now I've had some food but still not great.

Phoned the doctor's office, they seem to want me to see Dr. Hall again. I had Bad Cop receptionist on the telephone and she was being (unusually) helpful so I didn't really want to fight with her this time. So. Thing. Because I've left things too late, she's left a note in Dr. Hall's diary about a possible extended prescription for fluoxetine (it isn't on repeat yet), and I will go and actually see her (and LART her about the non-diagnosis of physical problems that do exist) next week. If she won't give me an extension of the fluoxetine prescription then I get to play with whoever is locum this week.

ALSO phoned the British School of Osteopathy. Go me. I have a nice, long appointment on Wednesday afternoon. Should be good.

Failed to do banking or get forms signed or take books back to the library, and it's bit late now for any of those things. Oh well. Tomorrow, and so on.

I'd like to go to Aikido but I'm not sure I'll make it. I wonder how Sensei would feel about me turning up in civvies instead of my gi; my more comfortable kit needs washing, I was planning to wear the stiffer, less-comfortable one but the way I'm feeling right now this would be very unwise, I think. Hmm. I guess I could turn up in civvies and just watch if Sensei would rather I didn't practise, which at least gets me out of the house and keeps me involved. Isolating/punishing myself because I'm not perfect is something I need to reduce in my life.

I guess that makes it time for me to go do my washing-up and try to find some clean kit.

Just a warning - I had problems on fluoxetine - personality changes, a drastic reduction in sex drive. Ask those you trust to keep an eye on you.

I'm probably odd, but I see this as a big advantage of SSRIs.

Mmm... I had the opposite problem for most of my life. I was frigid. I wasn't aware of the fact until a happy circumstance rendered me not so. I would not go back to that.

Ah.

I'm just terrified of the whole idea, so reduced interest is convenient, if probably not healthy overall.

Ouch. I'm sorry. To some extent I felt like that when I was a lot younger. Emotionally, I was like a sack of razor blades whenever sex threatened.

Food is good. Maybe I should hide later.

Is Dr Hall

BSO for the win. They're really very good.
