yay! i found a church. it's not an orthodox church- i don't believe a lot of their stuff anyway. it's a lot like the chapel i grew up in. it's called a free church. not sure what that means! it's old fashioned, non flashy, straightforward- 4 hymns, 2 prayers and a sermon- but all so fervent, and alive- even though they're not dancing down the aisles, or even raising their hands. it's a small, suburban congregation, meeting 15 mins drive away, just around the ring-road, 2 suburbs away.so an easy drive, still in the north of the city. our previous church was in the south of the city, not a bad drive on a sunday, but awful during the week. so we've been to the midweek meetings these last 2 weeks, and my kids are going to the kids club tonight. i am excited. we have found a new family, and it's good to get involved.
now, my meds. i stopped taking them this week which was foolish. i went to see my g.p this morning. she advised me to stay on the prozac, and reduce the lithium very slowly. so that's what i'll do. hope it's ok! i so want to be free of the meds and all the side-effects- especially the weight gain. i'm eating healthily, and moderately- still not losing any weight. i hope i can be med-free by the end of this year.
