Hey all!

so I’ve been on Atomoxetine 40mg for 4 weeks and things have been going well. I’ve never done my BP consistently before, but since starting, I have been.

So when I started originally, it was 118/74 and HR 88bpm.

I’m on day 4 of a 10mg increase and today it’s reading at 137/92 and HR 68.
I have health anxiety so am reading far too much in to this - but is that ok? Will it reduce as I get used to it?
as the increase is early, I’m tired, foggy and have a headache - but am alright. - maybe a slight wheeze (but it’s Summer).

I just want to know I’m ok and it will get better - my aim is to be on this so that I can get off the huge amount of meds I’m already on!
please no horror stories - thanks ❤️

hi guys, 

I had my UC review today and it’s made me realise how much I need to get my head out of the sand. I am the person who is meant to enter my husbands earnings and support him with tax - I have been putting 0 each month because I can not face doing it. 

Today she asked about a payment which was for my husband - to an undeclared bank account, I panicked and lied nd then made my husband lie. 

I am sure it will be ok - but I don’t want to hide this anymore, I’ve been hiding it from my husband, kids and UC. 
I’m catastrophising that I will go to prison and my kids will be humiliated - how would I even tell them knowing I just lied? 
My husband is my carer (so double whammy) and I had one job! I haven’t done it and am now putting the whole burden on my family. 
it’s a years earning of £34,000 with expenses of approx £14,000. 
I feel like I can’t go on - please help!
