For one reason or another I have had to knock alcohol on the head, but since doing so (I am still very early days) I have noticed a massive increase in appetite.
I would have thought it was the other way round, but does anyone know if this is 'normal'?

Hi Baby_Sham, I really wish you all the best. It does seem like a horrible time at the moment and the shakes and sweats will last for a while longer still. Don't worry that you are eating too much at the minute, it will level out, you will probably get some strange 'hankerings' for Beetroot/ Brocolli and other mineral rich veg and salty food - your body will just be...

Sorry, Chrissa, I did absolutely read what you wrote - I apologise for not responding directly. I have an appointment on Thursday with my doctor, to see how I'm getting on with my medication. I will be honest, and tell her I've stopped it, but I will also ask about having something to balance my moods and help me sleep. Thank you :-)

That is the best post I have read all night, BS. Hurray!!!! Well done and keep at it. I take, Escitalopram. Mention it to your doc.

Let me know what happens won't you. God bless and keep strong. X

Good - night Baby Sham - and don't hesitate to come on line if you wake up and need some support....amongst the 3am pish-artists, there are some bona fide insomniacs who can help you battle this...then the rest of us loons, starting with Boaty's GMEB thread when Minty and I usually emerge, (not at the same time, I hasten to add!).

Chrissa, thank you so so much. I have made a note of that, and I'll be sure to mention it to her. I'll let you know how I get on.
Again, thank you :-) x

Aww, DTC, you are kind - thank you. x
