My beloved daddy has been rapidly declining. This week has been one of the hardest of my life. Yesterday Daddy left the hospital but is in no condition to go home so he's now in a skilled rehab facility to gain back all the strength he lost so he can go home. Daddy was stricken with pneumonia that no one saw coming and it completely drained him. Daddy is 82 years young.

I am SO stressed out that my anti-depressants are not working at all and I do not want to increase my dose because I know the current situation is not the norm. This entire past week I have been in adrenalin-overload. My body will not calm down no matter what I try. I know being hit by adrenalin constantly is not a good thing. I will admit that I seem to do a little better when I first wake up because I take my anti-depressants with my evening meal and they've had a chance to work through my system while I sleep. Mid-late afternoon gets a little dicey and by dinnertime I'm crawling the walls. My sweet hubby has been extremely supportive and he understands what I'm going through.

Can this precious Tribe suggest ways I can calm my body down that aren't illegal, immoral or fattening, ((LOL))? ((trying to keep the humor active))
