Today's entry....
(Since i just moved to to blogspot from myspace, I thought I'd post a couple of old posts to get the ball rollings. This is from October 26, at one p.m)
Something Worked!!!
So after an incredibly horrendous day yesterday complete with fever, chills, and technology horrors, something went right!
Today I ran home after my Scientific Analysis class and tried to print something and my Printer PRINTED!!!!
(That's because my friend came over last night in the pouring rain to fix it for me. You know who you are and you know I'm eternally grateful!!!! Thanks SOOOOOOOO much!!)
SO anyhow, now I'm a happy camper.
But I'm still sick. Which is nice for some people because when they get cold, they can just warm themselves from the heat radiating off my body. And when my mittens get wet, they dry fast too!
See, for the last few years I've been taking my crazy meds, and so when I get sick, I can't take any cold and sinus medication because interactions could cause some bad things to happen. So when I get sick Ijust have to suffer. Welll now that I'm off my meds, I am so drugged up on sinus pills that I feel like a million bucks. This is the best cold I've had in years!!!
I'm not sure if I can keep up with this no meds thing. I asked my mom last night if she thought it was all in my head and she said that of course it's all in my head, there is a physiological problem with my brain that causes it to not function properly and that's why I was prescribed medication for it in the first place.
Which is all very well and good but I really don't think that I can accept that I will be like this for the rest of my life. I've been hysterical these last couple days... maybe even weeks. I feel like I'm going to throw up all the time, I'm worrying about ridiculous things that will never happen, and I'm bursting into tears over the smallest things. And what's really scary is that I know this is just the beginning. Can I take it? I guess the real question is, do I want to? It's tricky to figure out what I want. It makes concentrating hard as well.
Hey guess what?
Chicken butt?
No, but really, guess what?
I have a Date on Friday and I can't wait!!!!

Part of the problem right now may be that the medication isn't entirely out of your system yet, which may be causing adverse effects themselves. :(
Details about the date, please!
