Had my 3 month appointment this morning. Didn't put as many eyedrops in as usual so they'd be able to see what my eyes are normally like. With severe dry eye, you don't see as well because things are blurry around the edges. Even on a bad day like today my eyes were 20/25. They said my eyes were healing very, very well and looked great. And Dr. Erdy gave me prescriptions for Restasis eyedrops that'll help in about 4-8 weeks (eek) and said I needed to take fish oil - giving me a prescription for pharmaceutical grade. Can't wait to belch that stuff all day.
It's been nice not having to think about election stuff any more. They're over - yeah! Time to start doing stuff for me and start coping with the SAD. It's been more intense this year than usual - so if you don't hear from me for a few days, don't worry. I'm just camped under the king-sized bed with a bag of Doritos unable to communicate in anything more than grunts. I tend to truly become a hermit when the depression gets really bad - I find it hard to focus on others and I really don't want to talk about my depression so I just avoid everyone. I remember some bad years where I didn't go to Christmas parties because I literally could not get off the couch and could not bear to socialize when I felt so horrible. I haven't had that bad a winter since we moved here 4 1/2 years ago - I really hope this won't be one of those winters. They're hard to survive.
