Mystery Solved:)

So last night or I guess I could say early this morning I solved my brain mystery:) It's because of the medicine I'm taking. About six weeks ago I went to the doctor because of terrible anxiety. My blood work has shown that I have had some thyroid issues on and off for over a decade, as well as a cyst, but my blood work never high enough to persuade me to take the long-term medicine for my thyroid, although my doc really persuaded;0). I have struggled and struggled after our adoption. Not because of Joleigh but because I was not who I normally am. I never really struggled with postpartum depression before but I knew I was struggling with post-adoption depression or at least a lot of extra anxiety. I sought God and over and over I knew I probably needed some medical help to move on but kept waiting, thinking it would get better. Several Godly women even brought up the subject with me. Then when talking to my sister-in-law she said, "have you ever had your thyroid checked out?" It was like a wall came down. It hadn't dawned on me that my thyroid being off could elevate my anxiety. I knew I needed to go to the doctor and see if she felt anything could help me. She put me on Viibryd for anxiety b/c it was a medicine I could take for a few months and it would hopefully reset things for me. I have several friends who have taken medicines like viibryd for that very thing and they had positive experiences. I began taking it about 6 weeks ago. A couple to few weeks after I started the medicine, I began having these brain episodes. When I spoke to my doctor about that possibility she didn't think it was possible b/c this medicine doesn't lower your thresh hold for having seizures and that was what my symptoms sounded like. About 3:00 this morning I realized I had googled my symptoms over and over but I had never used the words electrocuted. So this morning I typed in "my brain feels like it is being electrocuted" and sure enough there it was!!! Oh praise the Lord! There were others who have experienced the same thing. I didn't read about anyone having side effects while on different medicines but when they were withdrawing from medicine. There were actually several types of medicine that could cause this when you begin to quit taking it. One was a pain medicine my doc had given me years ago for my endometriosis but it never caused me problems. I fully believe this is happening because Satan knows this medicine is what I'm needing right now. Bonding with Joleigh has grown ten fold in the past 6 weeks because I am ME!!!! These episodes aren't harmful, just terribly disturbing but since I know what it is I think I'm going to try to stay on this medicine for at least a couple more months and give it a chance to reset things in my brain. I think even though it's a terrible feeling to go through, now that I know what is causing it hopefully my body will let me sleep even after the episodes. So please continue to pray for rest for me... my family would appreciate it:)
