Another month down! 4 MONTHS!

I'm not any better or worse than 3 months, but surviving 1 more month really makes me feel accomplished. I'm just trading off withdrawal effects at this point - struggling with blurry vision (I've had near-perfect vision my entire life and now if someone writes in red/orange on the whiteboard in my classes I have to walk up to the board to make out the words), ACNE (although not as much as before), my right eye twitches ALL THE TIME, irregular sleeping patterns, and tinnitus (it's changing pitches more frequently now). I feel a little more foggy recently, but I'm not sure if it's a 1-2 day thing or if it's going to be a part of this wave.

 

My cognition doesn't seem to be affected - I finished my first two courses in medical assisting with a 99% and a 97%. Just aced another exam the instructor said the rest of the class didn't do as well on. Huzzah!

 

The most depressing side effect is benzo belly. No matter how hard I work out or change my diet it DOES. NOT. COME. OFF. I used to be able to lose weight so easily!  :'(

 

I hear big changes happen around month 6... Very excited!
