Better living through chemical intervention
I have tired to get into running several times in my life, but it wasn't possible until I wen on a 60 mg dose of Cymbalta. My exercise drive shot up and my interest in running bloomed. Unfortunately after about 18 months I couldn't sleep well at night so I dropped my dose down to 30 mg. My mood is great, but my exercise drive, particularly my drive to run is totally shot. On the up side I sleep like the dead again and I can concentrate while at work.
This makes me wonder about how much of my personality and likes/abilities are totally dependent on my brain chemistry. Which ultimately, I guess is all of them. Duh! Part of the reason I haven't been keeping my blog up to date is that I feel a bit like a fraud posting under the current title. So I think I will change the name to reflect my current state of exercise/being.
Any suggestions?
