Good luck! I know the feeling of things i used to revel in now cripple me with anxiety so i avoid them. But i try to attempt a new thing every week or so. this morning i listened to the news and lived to tell the tale. i hope your cruise is a pleasant and relaxing for you!

Got my vitamins, medications and motion sickness pills. Also packed my cane - I still need it from time to time. I'm just hoping not to ruin our vacation for everybody and myself. Wish me luck

Those remaining are fatigue, brain freezes/overstimulation, headaches, sensitivity to light and sound. Insomnia is getting better but still an issue, and appetite is ba-ack! Depression and anxiety are largely under control thanks to Lexapro, exercise, and a very distant light at the end of the tunnel.

Drugs: Lexapro, occasional 2-5mgs ambien. Off amatryptaline. Taking about 453 supplements.

Just started vision therapy, waiting on some blue-tinted prism glasses.
