I wrote my last post on Thursday. Today is Tuesday. There is a reason for this. It is beacuse I have been on crazy drugs for five days now. I think I'm better today - I was actually able to make it to class. But I'm still all shakey and shit. I was prescribed some crazy ass anti-depressant that I find it hard to believe is even legal, in any country. The only thing it can be likened to is being on bad ecstasy. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat (I've lost ten pounds in a week), I have crazy dilated pupils, my heart rate is abnormally fast, I have the worst cotten mouth ever, I came home from school when I felt them starting to kick in, and sat in a dark room for four hours hallucinating (and not good fun ones, either), trying fruitlessly to go to sleep. I had all the shitty effects, and no good touchy feelyness. Truly sucky. I told my doctor about all the syptoms and apparently all this is quite normal. You should see the list of possible side effects that came with the stuff, there are literally over a hundred. Fortunately I did not develop yellowness of the skin or eyes, or have brown urine. Hooray.
