Feeling kind of low

after starting thyroid medication 4 days ago. The mood and the energy levels have dipped, though I am still working and exercising. Maybe my body is adjusting to thyroid medication.

I hope it gets better soon for you.

I’m sure there’s an adjustment period. If you’re concerned, you could always ask the dr who prescribed the thyroid med if it’s normal and if so, for how long.

This is exactly what chat gpt is saying. But, 4-6 weeks is a long time to adjust to the med which is what it is saying, it is just the 5th day, and already plenty of low mood and energy.

Well, I played some badminton just now, I hope this helps raise the mood.

when I was without meds for my underproductive thyroid I cried easily…emotional…intense and probably a bit manic…I bet that’s normal for you to feel that way.
