It's been a lot of days since I posted something. A while back I went to see my psychiatrist for an appointment and he prescribed some new stuff for me. Paxil. It sounds like it doesn't contain any serotonin/sertraline like the Serdep pills. I gradually moved over to Paxil from Serdep (probably like Zoloft). I would say I didn't feel too tired thanks to the gradual process.
My feelings might be triggered more from anxiety than depression, but I am thinking of asking him if I could stay on at least half a Serdep pill a day to help a bit with depression.
I think the Paxil pills might be working for me at the moment, at least on the anxiety side.
There's this book I've read a bit out of called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Dummies. It's quite interesting and I found an ABC method involving writing down A - activating event, B - beliefs, C - consequences. That's the basic part of it I would say. I think it is to make you aware of a situation and writing down a more positive way of thinking about a certain event.
I have also read a bit about confidence and think that more confident people think about situations in a more positive, learn from it type of way.
