I'm OK - or am I?

First, I haven't been feeling well the past month or so.  Headachy, nauseated, just general ick.  Amylita mentioned that her GIRD symptoms were very similar, so I started taking a zantac-ish pill every day the last few days and it seems to be better.  I'm trying to start eating like normal people do - i.e. actually eating more than once a day with a few "snacks" peppered in here and there.  I just don't feel good.  Like in general don't feel good.  My body isn't very happy with me and I can't really blame it.  I haven't been treating it very well lately.  Hopefully the measures I'm taking will help.

Second, I know that when I don't feel well physically I don't feel in tiptop shape emotionally, either.  I'm tired.  I can't seem to get enough sleep.  I've contemplated whether or not I'm depressed or just dealing with the onset of SAD (seasonal affective disorder) like a lot of us experience when the time changes.

Now, that's not to say that I am completely miserable all the time.  Quite the contrary.  We've been social, I've spent time with my loves, etc.  This weekend Amylita and I are heading to Atlanta for a concert.  So it's not like I'm all woe is me.  I'm trudging through it.

I'm just tired of not feeling well.  Period.  I wouldn't even know what to tell the doctor was wrong with me.  "Uh, I feel like I'm going to hurl at any given moment most of the time and my head hurts."  Seriously?

Ugh.
