Unless we are a little crazy
So it’s Saturday, and I’m getting ready to enjoy my day off by going to get my hair cut and go to my mother’s house for the day. We didn’t get home until about 10:30pm last night, and ended up going to bed an hour later. I didn’t get to sleep very quickly, even with the added bonus of a Benadryl, and woke up at around 5am because I needed to pee, so I’ve been up and about for a while now.
Last night seemed to be narcotic night at the store. If people weren’t coming in with scripts for hardcore painkillers, it was ADHD meds. Last week started our compliance with the “Meth Awareness Act” or some such, so now anything with pseudoephedrine (Sudafed’s active ingredient) - essentially anything with a decongestant - is behind the counter and we need ID to sell it so we’ve got a log of who’s mixing up bathtub crank and who just has a cold. And, to make matters even more fun, on Monday we start selling syringes over the counter, which we also need to check ID for. Thankfully we don’t need to write those names down.
This next week will be a blur, much like most of this month has been. I may or may not be working for a few hours on Wednesday, which would be nice because I’ll be losing hours on Friday due to graduation. I’m also going to call and make an appointment with my doctor to get a checkup and to discuss some fun things like birth control and the possibility of getting my ass on some long-overdue psych meds in hopes that I can get this depression and anxiety under control. Can I get 3 cheers for being crazy? And maybe a suggestion for a med that won’t fuck me up sexually?

Sorry hun. Yhe only meds i know of or have been on fuck you up sexually. If not by lossing your sex drive.. then from being so mellowed out that you aren’t *really* there. ya know? And especially on birth control. Mind wackers i say.

I’ve been lucky so far w/ birth control; the only one I was on (Nuvaring) made me super horny. As for other drugs, I don’t remember what the last one did to me sexually, mainly because the only things I really remember from them was the extraordinarily vivid dreams I had on them, the horrible withdrawal period when I went off them, and the fact that while I wasn’t depressed while on them, I felt like someone had hollowed out my body, stole my emotions, and filled me full of cotton.
However, I’m willing to try something - anything really - to get myself into a mindset where I’m not completely apathetic about life in general and freaking out at the thought of having some sort of contact with the creepy-landlord.
