Surgery is healing up very well, but that's not why I've been gone so long.

It's the med changes.

I came off 300mg of zoloft (yes, that's a large dose) over a period of three weeks. (and 50 mg of strattera, but that was no big deal.) The ''discontinuation syndrome" (read: withdrawal) has been hellish.

I dropped 100mg a week, and after each dose ( Read more... )

He's about 4 months now. He seems to grow every time he naps...

Gehh, I can't stand it when docs don't inform patients of things. It's really dangerous, even.

I don't even want to think about what would've happened if I just stopped the zoloft like that... yikes... Rough stuff.

I'm going nuts waiting for the copy of the manga (#12-the end!!) to arrive on my doorstep. Stupid amazon has said 'shipping soon' for a full 24 hours now. *grr*

I really wish I could download anime, but my dad won't stand for it. T_T T_T (Something about filesharing and people accessing our computer...) I really hope it can come to DVD... gahh... I'm stuck with just the books for now.

Such a good series. But I still can't forgive *anyone* for what happened to L. NO FAIR!!!

hmm... I actually drink tea all the time...

/my blither. I need to get to bed early tonight. it's been a long day.

It's good to hear from you again. That's terrible about the meds, though. When do you expect to notice a difference with the MAOI? And yeah, Shotgun has definately gotten bigger but still just as cute! Dang it I want a cat again.

Hmm, I don't know... I'm seeing my psychiatrist on thursday so I can ask him then. I hope it's soon, and a good difference. -_-

He may be cute, but he's a handful, too!
