Hey everyone ” title=”Smile” />

I just wanted to stop in and say….. LIFE is getting MUCH easier these days. (now that I said this, ill be on tomorrow SCREAMING HOW I HATE IT)… I have been on 75mcg of synthroid for almost 3 weeks and I am slowly returning back to the girl I use to be. Happier, more motivated, and im not sleeping in as late as I was. I still have my "off" days. Yesterday I was super tired but I only slept 4hrs so that could have been a huge factor. LOL. I started the job search ” title=”Smile” />Although I am very hesitant cause I am seriously afraid. I know it sounds stupid but I havn’t worked since I was REALLY hyper. Im afraid Im going to correlate work with previous anxiety/current anxiety. I guess all I can do is try.

Ps. I want to thank you all so VERY much through this crazy journey with GRAVES. I signed up almost a year ago with thoughts I would never get better, I was at the end of my ropes and my future was going to be full of Dr appoitments and fear of the unknown. Today I can say I have that glim of hope back. I am starting school again this semester and am back in all my nursing classes ” title=”Smile” /> Two months ago school wasn’t even an option to me nor was the job search. I am going car shopping next weekend ” title=”Smile” /> Two months ago I didn’t care if I ever drove again because I was scared. It just goes to show how much your thyroid really DOES effect your entire life, emotions, thought process, personality and future plannning. I have grown up A LOT. Graves has taught me to appreciate your health/life much more. It’s sad it took something so debilitating to occur before I found my drive and motiviation to be so strong. Everything happens for a reason right? LOL.

You all have such caring personalitys even as you struggle you took the time out of your days to respond to my CRAZY EMOTIONAL POSTS AND I CAN’T THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH. You all gave me such HOPE, STRENGTH, REASSURANCE, CONFIDENCE AND THIS FOUNDATION HAS BLESSED ME MORE THAN ANYONE COULD EVER KNOW.
