Two Hard Things

nibblezzI took a day off of work today.
I did two of the hardest things today:
1) Temporarily stopped driving and bought a bus pass
2) Informed the property rental agency I'm backing out of our pre-rental agreement
I'm experiencing symptoms of carbamazepine toxicity and need to withdraw from the medication. The new medication is pretty expensive and I don't know when it will be approved from my insurance. So, in the interim while my medications are being sorted out, I decided I needed to stop driving. I hate taking the bus, but it is what it is.
As for the awesome apartment, I needed to give that up too. The apartment had new paint and carpets put in, and for someone like me who's extra sensitive, drug withdrawal plus paint and voc exposure will be a health disaster.
I had a good cry about both things, but in the end I have peace over my decisions :)
