There was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yuriar.com\/wp\/?p=1376\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this<\/a>.\u00a0 Then <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yuriar.com\/wp\/?p=1382\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this<\/a>.\u00a0 It&#8217;s pretty obvious I have a problem. So I went and got my labs drawn for that Thyroid test.\u00a0 Hoping I&#8217;d get the Synthroid and have the same results as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yuriar.com\/wp\/?p=169\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">last time<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My thyroid level came back &#8211; perfectly normal.\u00a0 The short version of the story is that my doc gave me a high dose of Vitamin D to take once a week, and Celexa.\u00a0 I took the vitamin D alone that night, and the next morning, I felt great! I looked around and saw everything that I had let slide, and just got to work. I had energy!\u00a0 I wasn&#8217;t happy&#8230;\u00a0 but I wasn&#8217;t down either&#8230; I just&#8230; was.\u00a0 The vitD seemed to do the trick, but by the end of the week, I was really worn out, and down.\u00a0 Not a big problem, I figured I&#8217;d take the next dose and get the same bump.\u00a0 So when time came, last Monday, I took the next dose.\u00a0 Instead of a big energy high, I slid very quickly back down the hill.\u00a0 The roller coaster of emotion ran completely off the track yesterday.\u00a0 It was not pretty.<\/p>\n<p>So I prayed.\u00a0 I&#8217;d reached a point where I needed help.\u00a0 That&#8217;s when God reminded me of the Celexa.\u00a0 I was hoping to stay off anti-depressants.\u00a0 But I couldn&#8217;t handle the wild emotional swings anymore.\u00a0 so I took one last night.<\/p>\n<p>Dude.<\/p>\n<p>Today was the best day I&#8217;ve had in&#8230;\u00a0 I don&#8217;t even know how long, it&#8217;s been that long.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t loose my cool at all.\u00a0 I laughed.\u00a0 I haven&#8217;t laughed in a while.\u00a0 I laughed so hard this morning because of this guy:<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"flickr-image alignnone\" title=\"Funny Boy\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/thekytikat\/3465262447\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3532\/3465262447_fea46d208a.jpg\" alt=\"Funny Boy\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hey mom!\u00a0 Know what my shirt says?&#8221; he says to me with the biggest smirk ever.<\/p>\n<p>He looks down at his chest, and reads,<br \/>\n&#8220;Labtuf!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dude&#8230;  This kid cracks me up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow.
