I've been taking my psychotropic med now regularly for a good eight years, and can go at most two days without it, but trying to do three this time around hit me bad on Sunday! UGH! I FELT HORRIBLE; like I was coming down with the swine flu or something, but it's the withdrawals! My brain is so addicted to this stuff! I was severely photosensitive, nauseous, dizzy, irritable, pissy, moody, depressive, and had all sorts of other really bad symptoms. Let's just say that listening to my mother nag me was driving me through the roof, and I felt I was gonna snap her neck right then and there! This had me very concerned, because I find it troubling that this drug is so powerful! So I took my pill last night, and already feel better today, even though I'm back at this monotonous boring job. One time I quit it cold turkey for about four months and was doing fairly well, but had to go back on it when faced with having to move from my old house of 24 years. I'm not a pill popper by any means, but this pill has me hooked, which is a bit disturbing to me. I'm sure my new psychiatrist will want to give me a new drug or something, but what for?! All these drugs are wonderful, but there is a terrible price in my opinion. Like killing my sex drive! Although maybe in my case, this is a good thing, LOLOLOL!I have ants in my room! UGH! How annoying! I already set out those traps that are supposed to kill them, but it's not working! Maybe it's because I'm always eating i
n my room? It's my cereal crumbs or something. AHHAHA! Yeah, I'm not grossed out by ants or anything, but I can feel them crawling on me sometimes, and it really is kind of irritating. This problem seems to get worse when it is very hot outside, as all the little critters scramble to find a cool place and they invade my space! I feel bad having to kill them sometimes, like I'm some sort of Hitlerian genocidal murderer, but they are a rather big pest. Ants are so numerous, God only knows how many gadzillions of them there are all over the world, probably the most successful species ever to inhabit Planet Earth.
Hey, there's this missing plane that was flying from Brazil to France and it vanished off radar while over the Atlantic Ocean Sunday night. EEK! One of our worst fears has probably come true and that plane hit the water; how God awful for the victims and families. Unless they all miraculously landed okay and are now on some deserted island or something?! Highly unlikely though, as it should have touched down in Paris hours and hours ago! MISSING! Somewhere in the ocean! YIKES! Like the Titanic or something...A prayer for anyone involved in this tragedy, and a reminder of how short our time here truly is. So live all you can; have that fatty donut, smoke that cig, and plan an orgy...

When I visit LA, I want you fully medicated - I only want to visit with ONE of your personalities AND I'm sleeping on your couch. LOL
I know about the ant thing. I had them invading my kitchen. But a couple of liquid traps and the little things are no more.
I understand your distaste about being "chained" to medication. But I look at it as the correction needed for our imperfect bodies. I will take blood pressure meds for the rest of my life, because if I don't, my head will spin around like the exorcist darling.
I found an effective prevention for ants. If you can find the location of entry, place several layers of Bounce Dryer Sheets where the ants come in. They hate that surface and will back out.
Actually it not the surface that disturbs them. Ants will crawl on anything. Ant are colony insects that depend on a highly sophisticated network of pheromone trails. When you put bounce on the floor what you a doing is confusing the heck out of them.
If you want.... use any agent that will dispel the pheromone trail. Some recommendations are pinesol, alcohol, diluted ammonia to your preference, or if on carpets.. use Arm and Hammer Baking Soda and vacuum.
As for the meds... you are not chained to them. Currently you been tricked and now have a chemical dependence on them. Most medications people do not need, as they are just money makers. Most pills in circulation are for preventive reasons or convenience.
Very distrubing about that plane and especially odd that there is no evidence of it. Horrible for everyone involved and I add my prayer to yours.
I found ants in the sugar bowl which made me call Terminex. Now the little buggers are outside where they belong. Having them crawl on me when I am in bed would be the earmark of a total breakdown of civilization so at that point a phone call is in order.
As for meds - I'm with RG - when I visit or you visit me I want you fully medicated. :)
Meds... very tricky, the key to the question is, overall, does it improve your quality of life, in spite of side effects and what not?
