What is it worth, my life?
Two Master’s degrees.
A Bachelor’s degree.
A marriage to a wonderful and very successful man.
A son, lovable, handsome. brilliant.
Friends.
Cats.
These are all part of my life, components of my life.
But what is the sum total of it?
What am I worth? The elements that make up my body may fetch you $3.00!
How much did I contribute to the world?
So what am I worth? What is the sum total of me?
Don’t feel good, probably obvious.
Probably because of stopping Zoloft, my brain is in withdrawal for the effect of Serotonin. I just have to withstand it for 6 months to a year, easy. That is when, according to my doctor, my brain will normalize and the withdrawal effects of Zoloft will go away. Until then, I live with these fluctuations of mood and feeling like a rag doll.
Did go to the lab today, have started in earnest. Waiting for a project. Maybe that will make me feel worthwhile, feel I have worth, feel I am worthy.
There are so many things bothering me, but I am not sure if it is because of my mood or if they are really issues, so I will not speak of them here.
Just go on, put a smile on my face, turn off my brain and exist, live.
Sometimes it is no small feat to put on a smile and simply live, taking one step after another. Hope your brain functions better soon once Zoloft withdrawal ends.

Thank you! It helps when someone understands and says encouraging words!! Yes my mind feels totally slowed down, with a litany of negative comments playing on a loop, and the rest of me feels like all my physical strength has literally been sucked out of me. Not a good thing! But thank you for your lovely words. 😊

I relate to this post so well, and my wonderful friend Kitt O’Malley hits the nail on the head with her comment. I hope with all my heart that your Zoloft withdrawal timefreame is the exception to the rule of 6-12 mos,i.e. that it happens much sooner! I hope by the time you read this message you feel better, but in case you don’t, please know I’m thinking of you and you’re in my thoughts & prayers. You are an incredible and beautiful person!!!! (((hugs))))
