> You mean all I need is a little Neurontin? Bring it on. I felt like I was with you in the brussel sprout aisle.
thanks, i appreciate the understanding. i had really had it by then. i forgot to mention the very large pimple i got right on the top of my cheekbone last night, and i really don't get them any more, so when i do get the random one from time to time, it wrecks everything... can you believe that it can actually have the power to ruin any possibility of happiness for two days? but it does... i stand at the mirror and growl at myself and yell more expletives... luckily, my daughter is not here... ("mommy's losing it again! better take her to see 'Anger Management' "!) was thinking of going out tonight, but the possibility that someone might see me like this (i exaggerate, but i hate pimples) is so off-putting, i stay in. and this just annoys the hell out of me, too.hmmm... ever been on neurontin? it's quite an easy drug to take (in terms of liver and renal functioning, whatever your body cannot metabolize just gets peed out), and you can ramp up slowly, see how you feel. it's pretty gentle, as far as the anti-convulsant mood-stabilizers go. lots of people have negative reactions to topamax or lamictal... but i miss neurontin lately, because i feel the irritability slowly returning, like the tide, and i start hating myself when i get like this. and god knows, i don't want to hate myself, i want to be cool and carefree and easy-going, and i did feel that contentment and well-being with at least some neurontin. i even tapered down to see how it worked when i took less, and it was fine).
here's to a more even-tempered saturday,
wendy :-]
