Yes, yes.  I know.  How often does our blood boil when someone asks us how we are doing, and we simply answer, “I’m fine.”  Well, I am here to tell you that answer is…actually, quite “fine.”  I swear.  Cross my fine little heart. I’m not sure how many of you have seen this film I [...]

Most people who have been hanging around my blog (and definitely Twitter!) know that I have been talking about finding an apartment, the state of my life in that perspective, how afraid I am regarding where I’m going to live, what the hell is going to happen, just all of it. I must find something [...]

Depression Comes in Many Forms

I honestly can’t remember if or when I’ve had a day like yesterday.  Maybe years ago.  Minus having the right diagnosis.  Minus being on the right meds.  Minus having this new technology.  At least today I’m up and actually touching it. Fuck that.  At least today I’m actually up.  Barely.  I still haven’t made any [...]

I have my CT tomorrow.  I doubt it will show anything.  Nope.  Nothing.  I’ve said this with my past MRIs, as well.  The scans will show nothing, too.  And they never did. It was because I thought I had an empty head.  Which I’m certain is true, now.  I had my doubts before, but not [...]

Yes! I’m On a Break! But This is Funny!

Spock and Aspie Penguin are right.  I DID make a decision to take a break.  And yes, a SERIOUS one.  For the FIRST TIME EVER. Although, I’m still around.  Just in bits.  I was cleaning up my Blogroll somewhat, as I knew people had shut their blogs down.  Then, I found a couple of posts [...]

It would appear that some habits (to what degree of health are arguable) never change.  Although, I must allow my wee PA some leeway in that she is feeling very sick.  That should in no way detract me from getting her the rest she needs, however. She doesn’t want to rest.  She becomes to listless, [...]

My New Therapist Better Not be The Receptionist

Okay, call made.  I’m in no way a racist, but this guy could hardly speak English, could not understand my basic questions about procedures, any information pertaining to the place. It did win the “award” (aka my decision) for its services.  I figure I could get some kind of help due to what they offer [...]

Which apparently I am not doing so successfully.  I took a Valium earlier.  Pfft.  Then I took some Gravol.  Self-medication, anyone? Well, trust me.  After the last 72hrs, you’d be doping your own heads up with anything you could get your grubby (or clean) little hands on! It is truth and not rumour, that I [...]

Looking Out for Number One

Why do we have such a problem with this? Why can some of us never do this? If we’re such stigma busters, why do we find it so easy doing it for others, but not for ourselves? All we may end up doing is busting our own teeth to bits of dental shrapnel with steel [...]

I am so fucked up it’s gotten to the point of epic embarrassment.  I’m serious.  Hey, at least I’ll admit it? Christ, I admitted I was an alcoholic on Twitter last night! Points for that, too? Although, after so many years, self-restraint if I drink at all.  Near Beer is a good thing if I [...]
