Yeah, Tom -- he left for it before hearing about the lockdown order. At least he has something positive to do while waiting for normality to return!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's why you never go to work early.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Loves brenda.

Filling out the psych questionnaire I wonder if they are gonna refill for me. I'd kinda be interested if there was a med I could just take for the worst week of the month. Don't think so though.

When I get to work I should be able to tell people. About job. Whoot!

Art Crawl!!!

Well, the river isn't over the road this morning - but in more craxy weather news: it was snowing (lightly) when I walked from the bus stop to the office.

WTF????

And - stay safe Bostonians. This has been one completely nutty week and I'm glad that it's almost over.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am pretty sure I am addicted to my anti-depressant- I do go through withdrawal if I do not take it for a couple of days. In fact, I was listening to This American Life, where they were talking about a doctor who murdered his father, and kept saying that he needed citalopram, and describing his symptoms. Everyone thought he was faking, but it turns out he actually had Huntingtons. Anyway, his symptoms are mine-- weird electrical zaps through my brain, feeling like I have facial ticks (although it doesn't show) and just general not being able to think.

I wouldn't really call that addiction, except in the most technical sense.

Because books.

I think you can do that with one of the kinds of generic Prozac. Ask the doctor. Serafem, I think? Not sure how it's spelled.

And congratulations on the job! I don't think I said that yet.

In Boston news, I just started following Eliza Dushku this weekend, and her mom seems to live right in the Watertown area. She seems a little freaked out. I also started following Margaret H. Willison, pop culture happy hours librarian superfan who lives in Boston, and she is very informative.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I am pretty sure I am addicted to my anti-depressant

Withdrawal symptoms generally indicate physical dependence, which is not the same thing as addiction. Pretty much every antidepressant will cause withdrawal symptoms if you stop taking it suddenly. (That can actually be extremely dangerous, which is why it's strongly recommended that people taper off antidepressants rather than stop them suddenly.)

Uh, I'm not trying to lecture; I just don't know if you mean you have an addiction in the sense of a behavioral disorder, or just that the drug has affected your body in such a way that if you don't take it, you have adverse effects.
