the miracle of tryptophan

Two things that I never thought I would find extraordinary:
- I have only cried once a week the last two weeks
- Each time, the trigger and feeling happy again afterwards, all happened within 5 minutes.

Rewind to all of the Fall semester when it was great to only cry five days out of seven, and when an attack would mean 2.5 hours intense tears. (Due to my Lyme and remnants from the medications I took in the Summer).

I learned so much during that time, but am still so happy to be through it, and back to normal. The ability to be upset, and then think about something else, and be okay - it's a chemical miracle to me now.
