Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

is itching a common side effect of Prozac?

That's probably an allergic reaction. I'd stop taking it and see your doctor to try a different antidepressant.

I think I'd rather be anxious than itching like this. Dammit.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

There are many ADs to try. You can control your anxiety AND be itch-free.

Absolutely. Zoloft worked really well for my anxiety, and Lexapro is helping it pretty well, too. I hate my anxiety enough to be willing to try more than 1 medication.

I've been on Lexapro a couple of times, and I was never sure it actually did anything. Generic Xanax had me walking around with my fists clenched all the time. Ah, well, another thing to add to the list My Drugs And Me.

edit: Why so tricksy, brains!

Citalopram has done me well for the last few years.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Generic Xanax had me walking around with my fists clenched all the time.

Ah, someone else who had the opposite reaction to Xanax than intended...

Effexor only makes me itch if I take the recommended two doses a day. At one dose, there's no itching, and it still works.

Last two days I've had an intractable headache. Nothing I throw at it makes any difference. This means the Red Army is on its way, and I'm thinking about IUDs again. It could be 3 more years before I finally hit menopause, and I'm so sick of all this hormone BS.

A peaceful menopause is bliss.

Anxiety weasels are trying to eat my brain.
