Big Tiny Steps

(At ~50% of full dosage, and 13 days after starting the Bright Mind natural Adderall alternative)

After the truly crappy way I was feeling yesterday morning and the day before, causing me to postpone my reduction from 2.5 to 2 tablets, I wasn’t sure that I was going to be able to go down to 2 this morning.

And my sleep last night was pretty bad due to one of my kids’ insomnia, but this morning, I am feeling ok – ON JUST 2 TABLETS.

So I am officially at the 50% dosage mark, and this is a big deal!

I am half way to a new level of freedom, and that’s a beautiful thing.

I am gaining more and more practice in the art of self-care, taking naps as needed, and not over-exerting myself with my kids on account of guilt, which is one of my biggest challenges – guilt.

At any rate, my time is a bit limited this morning, but I wanted to at least check in to celebrate this milestone, since it’s so important that I celebrate the “small” victories.

I may check in here again later, but so far, about 1 hour into my waking hours today, things are going quite well.
