I offer for your amusement the dream I had last night. I was at the PixDesigns and they introduced me to a vey cute man named David who sort of reminded me of Patton Oswalt. We were instantly attracted to each other but every time I tried to kiss him, he turned into a cat. When I woke up, I found that my cat had crawled under the covers with me and was purring away contentedly.

Kitty was willing to kiss you.

my doc is switching me from Lexapro to Ativan for anxiety-related insomnia. Is there anything I should be on the lookout for?

Are you tapering off the Lexapro?

Withdrawal from Lexapro? At least I have found that the withdrawal from Celexa is a bear!

No tapering. I think I'm just supposed to switch in a week.

What dose were you taking? And were you taking it every day?

t edit Because SSRI withdrawal, like Sophia said, is EVIL.

In re Haiti -- WTF?

It started out kind of sense making, and then . . . .

While on the ground in Haiti, the U.S. military can also interrupt the nightly flights of cocaine to Haiti and the Dominican Republic from the Venezuelan coast and counter the ongoing efforts of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to destabilize the island of Hispaniola. This U.S. military presence, which should also include a large contingent of U.S. Coast Guard assets, can also prevent any large-scale movement by Haitians to take to the sea in dangerous and rickety watercraft to try to enter the U.S. illegally.

BAM! THE CRAZY!

I take 10 mg once a day.

And it's totally for helping Haitians as long as they stay in Haiti.

Scrappy, how long have you been taking it? Going cold turkey off a moderate dose of an SSRI -- which is what Lexapro 10 mg/day is -- can have very VERY bad side effects.
