PAs Cocktail And… *shrug*
May 7, 2008 — patientanonymousI was having a bit of a discussion with beartwinsmom about meds last night so I thought you might get a kick out of this. Yes, every current med that is prescribed for me at the moment. What do you think?
NOTE: photo taken down as personal information was still visible even though I thought it would not be. Extreme thanks to the two bloggers that emailed me. If you wanted to know, there were 10 scripts in the picture and it was quite cute.
And I’m sure other people might be on more meds? Hmmm?
So what else is happening today? Well, I got up earlier and tried to knock some things off my glorious “To Do” list from yesterday. Uh huh. I grabbed a bunch of stuff from work and promptly tossed it in a drawer. That’s right. Something to definitely add to my resume?
- Extremely capable of procrastination and avoidance of things that are disliked, annoying and/or are simply too tedious to accomplish.
*PA rolls eyes*
No, no…will get to it all. And rest assured, I will not (or try to) bother you with my daily accomplishments. Well, unless they are huge and big shockers!
I’m trying to figure out what to do next. I’m feeling a bit more ADD and spun around than usual, perhaps? Okay, that might be understandable all things considered. I spent way too long on the computer last night too. I didn’t eat. Not good. That indeed was ADD full throttle: Hyperfocus Maximus.
Alright…best move along now and…erm…I don’t know…

Hey, you and I can open our own pharmacy!! Just think of the profit we’d pull in!
I hear you on the hyperfocus… I’m supposed to be finishing up my projects for the semester and I am on total brain block. I’m listening to music right now to hopefully break the block.

impressive. most impressive.

I was wondering if you took down the pic or not… Glad it worked out ok.
I have a fishing tackle box full of my meds - I had to take it with me when i travelled to the middle east a couple months ago… They counted it as my carry on (well, one of the two). grrrr… very frustrating.

Hi mom, yes…and considering my (ahem) situation, I could sure use the extra cash? Indeed, some kind of online pharmacy? Actually, no way in bloody hell! I need my meds probably more than money!
God luck on your studies/workload. The hyperfocus thing can be good but the only problem with it re: AD(H)D is that it generally only applies to things that one is intensely interested in. I mean, if it’s something I really don’t give a toss about–focus out the window. Therefore, try and get on some stims that may help with that? Get you more organised and focused?
Hi Greybeard, if I wasn’t mistaken (or perhaps I am not mistaken) you have now assumed (or you really are) Darth Vader? Still, thanks. Not that I necessarily want to say it or live by it but: “Better Living Through Chemistry.”
Hi Rach, yes, thanks again for the heads up. Another blogger did a bit of PhotoShopping but still… I just said forget it. I’ve had a couple of other “run ins” with my anonymity slipping a bit but I don’t think anyone is going to send any bombs in the mail to PA?
Anyone out there going to do that?
Lots of meds for you too, huh? I know. I haven’t travelled in a long time and was thinking about it…the next time I did. Boy would they have a heyday with all of my stuff. I wonder…my Biphentin is a stim…any problem with that? Being all stimmy and an amphetamine. And the damn Valium (granted that is only short term so I’d probably be off it?
Well, fuck cheese! It’s not like they could deny me my trip because of my medication?! But then again…recall poor nipple ring woman…
Ah…if it got really stupid, I’d just be complete ADD, spaz girl for my vacation. I’d just be pissed off if they confiscated my meds.
And dumb that they counted it as your carry on. I’d be able to pack all of mine in a plastic Ziploc bag or something and then tuck it inside one of my carry ons? Then they just have to pull out the bag and inspect? That’s what I’ve done before. *shrug*

Darth indeed. I love those movies, especially that one.
I had a scaled down version of your collection. I’m little time now, but yes, better living through whatever means possible.

Hi Greybeard…I only saw the first three (or the last three I suppose…)
I agree. Whatever it takes to keep your brain in tact. Although, as said before, I would never give anyone a hard time for going off their meds. My sister did and a friend did and they seem to be doing just fine? Some people can? I think it just depends upon circumstance. However, I have seen some do it and it has been a complete disaster. I know I would be a complete disaster!
What troubles me are those that do not accept or understand the “circumstance” or the vast variability of our brains and the problems we face due to the chemical imbalances, illnesses, disorders etc…
Not that I do not respect opinions–we are all entitled to them. But when people do not respect others in the same fashion, I feel that is not a decent and respectful way to relate to one another.
Salut Rach! Il n’ya pas de quois!
