Groove Is In Your Heart
So, I finally talked to the meds doc last night (yes, finally. Shut up. I had already made an appointment, it just takes a while, and it's not like I'm not used to being crazy.)
We're going to add Abilify to my regimen of Prozac and Neurontin. We shall see if that helps. Also, I'm supposed to be adding an extra fish oil supplement. As in, take two, not one, every day. We also talked about alternative remedies for peri-menopause, and she said that the black cohosh (qhosh) stuff can actually make you more depressed. She suggested adding more soy to my diet.
We shall see how this all works. Right now I'm dealing with having my first period in 3 months. I remember when my mom started skipping, I was 15, and she thought she was pregnant. I was horrified at the thought that
a) My 40 and 41 year old parents were still having s-e-x.
and
b) I might have to give up my status as the only child. Dude, I bitched about giving up my only grandchild status at 17. SEVENTEEN. You think I'd be adult about it, oh isn't it nice to have a new baby in the family and I was all, shit, wtf is this? For someone who hates attention, you'd think I'd realize that anything that deflects attention is a good thing.
