My plumbago plant has bloomed! It’s kind of hard to tell, but there is this pale baby blue to the centers of each petal. It’s just gorgeous. And occult-wise it’s good for headaches and getting rid of nightmares. So yeah, I’ll have harvesting some of the flowers to dry them and use them magickally. I plan do to a page in my witch’s journal about this plant.
I had my appointment with my doctor today, and fuck man, I just love her even more. After really talking in depth with her, we both agree with what my Mom had said years ago – I’m not bipolar. I have Major Depression – more accurately, my doctor has labeled me as having Dysthymia (chronic depression). We are also testing to see if I have Hashimoto (an auto-immune thyroid issue), as I do have a low-acting thyroid.
Yeah, it’s been years, but when I got my blood taken today…I straight up passed out. ::sighs:: And my hands were trying to seize up. So, I obviously didn’t go to work. Hell, the phlebotomists weren’t even sure they were going to let me drive home after I got myself under control again. They really wanted me to call someone to come pick me up. But it was noon, and I knew it would be at least an hour before my husband could get over to the office to pick me up, so I opted just to wait a bit longer with them until I regained some color and then drove myself home. I drank some water and gatoraid and ate some cereal and then I took a nap.
So we are upping my Pristiq dosage. And then the doctor is prescribing a mood stabilizer as well. I can’t remember what it’s called, but she did explain that she’s using this one because the other one usually has MAJOR weight-gain as a side effect.
