slipped on a book? that is such a Buffista injury. Glad it is not too bad.
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm going to make an appointment with my doctor this week to get back on an antidepressant. I've waited too long, and I have to be honest that my life is kind of barely functional.
I worry about the side effects, especially weight gain, but then I've been so non-functional for months that I've been eating my feelings and not exercising anyway, which I think is a bigger problem.
So. Fingers crossed that I can find something that works. If I do, I might just make it through the holidays after all. (I'm still going to keep seeing my therapist, because I think it's helping even though right now it suuuuuuucks. It's just not enough.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I have my fingers crossed for you, Steph.
Poor ltc, I'm sorry that I am having a hard time not laughing about you getting a fat lip from a book.
Laura, that sounds like too much togetherness. I hope you get some rest.
I hope the dinner was wonderful, WindSparrow.
Thanks, it was. We were all sad, but the food was good, and we did the "do you remember when we...." thing. I managed to keep from crying until I was driving home.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I just want to say how impressed I always am with you, Andi. You have such wisdom, common sense, empathy and a great depth of caring--which is obvious in what you post about work and the advice you give so many of us on here.

Scrappy, thank you. It's good to be reminded that the ugly thoughts that go through my mind, the moments when the baser instincts win, the regretable things I have said, those bits that are on constant replay in my conscience - they are not the sole definition of me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Good luck, Steph. I hope it helps quickly.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
WS, I echo what Scrappy said.
Steph, I hope you find something that works quickly. It's the right decision, but isn't it (not) funny how long we wait to go get help...

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Scrappy is still wise.
Steph, I'm glad you recognize that you need more help and are taking steps to get it. I know it's not easy.
Continued love to you and yours, Laura.

Teppy, I know it is a tough decision to make. All the ~ma for you.
Laura, I hope you got home at a decent hour.
WS, best of luck to you!
Happy Halloween, Everyone!!!

Our wings are not tired.
^^ What the wise Scrappy one said!
Still in fuming mode over hideous family funeral stuff. I really hate all of this. Tough to say whether I will have any siblings left before all is said and done. Sigh.
