When I fast to get a blood test I don't sleep well. I usually eat right before I go to bed and this helps me sleep. I know that my doctors say not to eat at that time, but if I do not I can't sleep. I get very hungry. Very much so now because of the VNS device. It burns the calories. A VNS device helps to burn the calories.
I am forcing myself to take it easy. To slow down, to not multi-task. To concentrate on one thing at a time. This will help my mind, to train it to focus. And when I come back after this depression I will have learned to slow down and to help prevent what happened this last week. Yes, a depression for seven days.
I am living with depression. I was implanted with VNS therapy on March 11,2008 and am blogging what experiences I have, not only with the device but with depression itself, and just what depression is. This is to let people know depression is not just the "blues". True depression is a disease, not a mood problem. One can manage the depression with various treatments and I invite you to learn with me as I go through it.
