Well its 2.30am, effexor making me untired and unworryed (AT the moment!). Have a Psychopathology exam tomorrow. you all may think this funny but I do a BSC Psychology course in my spare time (JOB= Depression). Final year exams, I realised a few weeks ago I wouldnt get enough to do the MSC. Since then lost all interest. and sunk into catatonia. Problem is may fail, meaning resit the year. Yeah, right. Its enough at the moment to try to keep myself out of hospital! I just hate the I dea of another year. ANyone who says student life is easy must be joking when u live on as much money as me and still try to maintain an unhealthy alcohol abuse problem.
SO a job is next, problem is I dont beleive I am able to do the 9-5 grind. And I dont have enough confidence to get the graduate job I am meant to. I Feel like a job as a cleaner again and clean up piss +pubes! At least this is something I know I can Do better than And therefore never fail.Anyways, this is a freeflowing brook of thought. Read, answer, write anything or not. I dont have a diary so why not publish this on the web.
Alcohol 8 units (V.G) ciggarettes 16 (avarage) callories (enough to metabolise effexor!)

hi,
I can relate to everything you say. I had my psychopathology final 3 weeks ago. The worst experience ever. I do not drink so I doubled on calories and cigarettes;)anyway, just go and just pass it. Hope your other marks are good enough to garantee a satisfying average, which is happened in my case. I didn't do well on the ab.psych. test, but the rest were near 100, so the average is still ok. Also, is summer university an option for you? I was postponing stats and social psych corses forever, and now am taking them as a part of summer university program, this makes it somewhat easier. and I even find them enjoyable.
When i think work, i think dishwashing. It is more or less the same as the cleaning job you describe. This kind of job is never done and that's the horror of it. You finish your day, and the sinks are still full of crap, because they brought dishes and pots from some party. Bad feelings.
What is V.G. (very gigantic units)?

Duda, your hilarious, thats something isn't it? I totally feel similarly, or did last week. I had my first year of law school finals. Wow, hellish. Plus I am a single mom and that being much more important to me, I didn't do much studying so then I stress. But then I start stressing about everything else. A friend of mind told me that we have a tendency when things are already stressful, to pull the rest of the world down on ourselves. Its like instead of focusing on the thing that actually is stressing you out, you focus on soemthing completely unrelated and stress about that. But its really just compounding things. I love your Bridget references, I have to read that book. Thank fully alcohol doesn't do it for me, can't smoke with a kid (Wellbutrin helped kick that, wow) but eating, well, lets just say that I am way too good a cook. Which really sucks since I am spending the summer on the French Riviera...

thought I'd let you know the exam was OK. Havent heard of the summer uni thing (probably costs money). V.G. was a bridget jones diary refernce. I read it in 97(?)and thought it was great. nice combo of neurotic humor and story. The second book is ok too -recomended. I just cant bring myself to watch the movie as its made by the same people as notting hill. (and obviously there is the fact that hugh grant makes me want to be sedated).
thanx for the kind words.

Ditto on Hugh Grant.
My exams were a total disaster, but everyone seems to think so, probably the hardest exam ever taken (seriously). (ConLaw that is) but fun nevertheless. ok, its like really late, if I go on I will only bore you. ta ta! (get it, brit ref)
