I used to be on prednisone (on and off) for the past three years. I have been off the medication for more than a year. I am wondering if even though I am no longer taking the medication, it still might be in my system? I just feel like a mess! One day I am fine, the next day I am sad, want to cry all day, and become obsessive with whatever is bothering me or on my mind (in this case my uc and recent break up). Its been a constant battle of going back and forth. In addition, I am on Fioricet, which is used for tension headaches/migraines. I am pretty much taking 3-4 daily now. I am going to see a neurologist tomorrow to get myself weaned off the medication. I am wondering if taking all of these medications is feeding on my already obsessive personality. Its interesting how medication works.
I am doing alright. I have my ups and downs. Last night, I spoke to my parents about the whole situation with my ex. Naturally, it got me upset thinking why didn't I see the red flags early on in the relationship.
Oh well. Going to take time. I just want that feeling of failure and disappointment in my stomach to dissapear. All of this stress that I am putting on myself is doing a number on my uc. I haven't felt this bad in a long time. Its really hard.
