Gone Fishing Part 2
I started taking Sertraline (Zoloft) a couple of years ago and, while it has improved my daily life immensely by removing crippling anxiety, it has had one very strange side effect—My dreams are becoming more like memories. My brain will think back to them during the day and I sometimes have to pause and consider if the the memory was real or not. The dreams themselves are more maddening, long and tedious than anything, and the themes often repeat. There is generally some level of anxiety or frustration. Common themes for me are being lost is a never-ending shopping mall and trying to find the exit, getting lost in a bad area of a city and trying to find my way back home on foot, walking around my childhood school like I never left and still hang out there, or attempting to sort an endless collection of possessions (often LEGO, go figure). Once in awhile my brain will pull out something original or entertaining, and those dreams I’m happy to remember. But as time goes on, the stockpile of dreams residing in my waking brain grows, and it can be disconcerting at times. Interestingly, while dreaming I do think back to previous dreams, and there is some level of continuity. This isn’t exactly what poor Gregg is experiencing in this comic, but it was certainly the inspiration.
(I thought I’ve already commented on this. Must’ve forgot to click “Post Comment”.)
Both what you and Greg are experiencing sound horrifying. I’m sorry you’re going through these side effects, but I’m happy that at least Zoloft is improving your daily life. 🙂
CONFABULOSCLEROSIS! What a wonderful concept, I might start to use IT 😀
On the other hand, thank you for sharing your experience. That shows us there’s a living person on the other side of internet. Medicaments might be a good starting point for getting the worst problems sorted out, I think. As for me, I find my piece of mind while worshiping God for his creation. Nevertheless, even few of my “siblings” have proper conditions requiring anxiolytics. Perhaps it’s the pace of these days.
Thank you for brightening my day with your comic 🙂
