My new antidepressant is working, but makes it even harder to get up in the morning. Well, the problem is that it makes me get at least 7.5 hours of sleep no matter when I set my alarm. This week, I've been staying up late working on the final project for the class that I didn't take an incomplete on. However, I'm still not done with the final project and it's two days late (and counting). The Library Director is getting pissed about my getting in late and having doctor's appointments. He's not my boss (who, I suspect, would be cooler about it), but I do have to work with him. (Somehow, I think that he'd be more pissed if I wound up taking a medical leave of absence, but that would mean that I wouldn't have to deal with his reactions.) I have talked to the doctors and therapist about the med making me wake up even later, but they don't want to change it because I am feeling better (and, for that matter, am being more productive at work), and they seem to think that if I'm getting to work at all, I'm doing really well. I feel like I'm between a rock and a hard place.

So, here's what I think that I should do:

1. Take an incomplete in the other class (which is annoying because I'm getting close to being done, but need a couple more late nights to finish).
2. Get to sleep earlier.
3. Talk to my boss about what's going on.

Does that sound like a good plan?

I really hate my life right now :( The thing that I hate the most about any sort of mental illness is that you need to be really need to be at the top of your game to deal with the problems that it causes, but generally, you're at your worst.
