Tep, that is a fabulous picture of you.

meara, the Citalopram/Lexapro has no side effects for me, aside from being a little sleepy the first week or two. And what brenda said about the sex -- so not a problem.

Of course, there are lots of different ADs out there, all with different side effects, but I'm sure there are more than the one on the $4 list. You can look it up on Target or ... somewhere. Stephen looked it up for me, and I can ask where he found it.

Barb, the sci fi comment made me snort iced tea. ::wipes face sheepishly:: Your parents, dude. That's ... some kind of story, all right.

Teppy on a billboard! So cool.

sj, I'm still having trouble processing the fact that people are so fucking rude. I would *never* ask that! And to email about it, not, like, drop into a casual conversation while you're hanging out or something, which seems at least a little less offensive? People are so fucking entitled. "I want to know, so tell me!" Jesus.

Meh, more worried about weight gain than sex--sex I can (and have) certainly do without, and figure if/when I was OK to be done with drugs it would be a non issue. But weight gain is a bigger problem (er, literally!), cause then you have to actually, y'know, work at it. IJS. And having worked in the drug industry, while I'm aware that all drugs affect people differently (heck, one drug I am currently taking is well known for it's anorexic side effects, some people have to stop taking it because they just stop eating when they're on it...me, I haven't had that at all, though I was kinda hoping for a little!). But in as much as starting from scratch not knowing which would be effective for the main purpose of "make me HAPPY!" is a crapshoot, I'd rather avoid ones that are known for those side effects, y'know?

And of course, this is all theoretical. Lord knows, a doctor could talk to me and say "Meh, you're a mess, but drugs won't help ya". Or "I ALWAYS start people on Drug X" or whatever. But I like to be a well-informed patient. :)

Billboard!Tep is fucking hot.

The agency dudes were cracking me up, because in the finished billboard, I'll be holding an X-ray (or MRI film, whatever). But because it's going to be MUCH easier for them to Photoshop it in, they just had me holding my hand up like I was holding a piece of paper, and they kept yelling things like "Is that a LEMUR in your hand?!?" or my favorite "A beer? Why, don't mind if I do!"

Barb, the sci fi comment made me snort iced tea. ::wipes face sheepishly:: Your parents, dude. That's ... some kind of story, all right.

S'okay, babe. You know how it is- gotta laugh about it because the alternatives would land me on the evening news and orange jumpsuit with sideseam pockets and we all know how I feel about those

Go Steph! Hot photo. Can't wait to see the billboard shot!

GlamSteph!

orange jumpsuit with sideseam pockets

Just ... NO. Also? No email in jail, baby.

Teppy, you are eminently lickable in that photo. Also, is that a lemur in your hand or are you just happy to see us?

snerk on the sci-fi comment, Barb! (Susan says, having gone back to read all the posts she only skimmed in her urge to make the top 50 of a thread for a change.)
