I hate to keep calling in sick, too....but I have to. I think it's best to just tell it like it is (not necessarily all the gross details), but then that way they know that it's not "excuses" that something really is wrong. Ya know? Just like this morning....I had some side effects hit me this morning after taking my first dose of Effexor last night....shaky, terrible nausea, tired.....so I called in again and explained EVERYTHING to my employer, the owner, and he was so understanding...even gave me some suggestions with this medication because he has been on antidepressants, too! He knows my health history so that helps, too. I'm lucky to have a very understanding employer and co-workers. Even the two co-workers who were teasing me have been understanding. I'm feeling a little better and may be able to make it to work this afternoon. I hate to use up all my vacation time being sick. I'm already out of sick days.

hang in there! we are all in this together!
