> Hi, Llurpsie. Didn't your medications just get bumped up by your doctor a few days ago? I'm finding that my body is a slow learner and changes take a l-o-n-g time for me to adjust to. Do you think you've given them enough time?
no, of course not! ;)

probably. And this diet isn't carb limiting, but it's designed to keep the blood sugar highs to a minimum. perhaps I need more sugar right now. oh well. don't want to undo all my 13 lbs of progress.> Make sure you are hydrating yourself well and getting enough nutrients in your diet.
>HYDRATION!!! that's probably a very good idea. all this caffeine is probably not so hydrating. I doubt I'm getting all my nutrients. maybe I should take a round of supplements. I was hoping someone would tell me exactly which bottles to open. so apathetic. I can at least track down a bottle of multivitamins, though.

And you've had a few changes recently. hope you're maintaining altitude ((((Scratchpad))))

> And, above all, we ALL want you to keep yourself safe. Do you have emergency phone numbers handy? Do you want another one?I'm very very bad at calling emergency phone numbers. e-mail is about as close as it comes. I called grandmom and grandpa to tell them I couldn't come to the family get together. Must have sounded pretty bad, 'cause they sent me a check for 2,000. I'm going to use it to pay for my therapist, who hasn't been paid since Feb.
Even given such powerful reinforcement to reach out, I rarely do so. I can convince myself that I feel "okay" enough not to, and then when I'm truly in crisis, I am powerfully compelled NOT to reach out. so pathological, I know. Something I'm working hard in therapy. Only took me 6 sessions with this T to ask him if I could call him after hours. My first T I never even got the nerve to ask. I just sent him one suicidal email and wham! next thing I know I got a pile of cymbalta samples. lucky girl I am.
