Month 2 Health Update: Lessons and setbacks

I was on a good track, but we've run into some issues.

Sorry it's been a while. I'm not very good at keeping to a schedule these days. I had planned to do, well, a whole lot more of everything right now. But I'm still in pretty much the same place I was a month ago, productivity-wise.

Health and stress-wise, things are a bit...rocky. This will be a shorter update as I do want to get back on track with timing by posting a longer update in a few weeks.

Let's dive in.

Mental health update summary (short recap)

In my last update, we had your classic "relief at getting help in a crisis" post. I was on an upswing, we had some lovely weather, and I even travelled twice (once out of the country).

But when I returned from the UK in early April, things began to unravel. My first extended vacation on PTO resulted in my shortest international trip to date and I struggled to stay on routine with the massive schedule and time zone changes.

After talking through the issues with both my therapist and psychiatrist, we upped my dosages and I considered some serious life changes.

If this is enough of an update for you, thank you for reading. If not, you can finish the full update on my blog.
