A Voice of HopePlease Stop the Room from Spinning – A Voice of Hope https://www.marylueverett.com Made in the image of God Tue, 01 Feb 2022 05:19:47 +0000 en-US hourly 1 Please Stop the Room from Spinning https://www.marylueverett.com/2006/10/04/please_stop_the/ https://www.marylueverett.com/2006/10/04/please_stop_the/#comments Thu, 05 Oct 2006 04:25:52 +0000 Lu https://www.marylueverett.com/2006/10/04/please_stop_the/ I mentioned a few days ago that I am, with my doctor’s permission, getting off the anti-depressants I began taking two and a half years ago after my parents’ deaths and overseas team implosion and my subsequent medical resignation from the IMB… (any questions as to why I needed anti-depressants at the time?).

I’ve experienced mild (and a few not-so-mild) withdrawal effects, as my brain says, "whaaaahhh…are you doooooo-iinnnggg??" and begins adjusting to life without serotonin help.

Today, however, I’ve had a big effect smack me in the head: dizziness. Extreme dizziness. Sometimes its all I can do to stay upright. It feels like the whole world is spinning; like I’ve just gotten off a very fast moving merry-go-round where I forgot to keep my focus on just one thing. Wwwhhheeee!

It’d be a rather fun experience, except it also happens when I’m driving. Blink_2
