I am fairly out of it this morning…keep that in mind as you are reading and wondering if I am drunk.
Between starting a new job, tapering off Klonopin, and taking care of an unemployed and depressed Dr. Love, I have failed to blog regularly. I believe my last blog was almost a month [...]

After three straight days of minimal sleep, I passed out on the couch last night, watching Medium, that we had DVR’d from earlier in the evening. DVR is a beautiful thing. I’m still not used to having a fancy TV or cable, and when I found out that we could set it to automatically record [...]

I’m barely able to keep my eyes open this morning, even though I was a good girl and went to bed at a decent time last night and got about 8 hours of sleep. I just have energy. I think it has a lot to do with the cyproheptadine I took last night. My old [...]

This whole actually living my life instead of avoiding it is keeping me really busy, hence no daily blog. That and I have totally been out of my morning routine because…GASP…I’m actually sleeping. Sleeping LATE…like 6:30 a.m. or 6:45 a.m. Much better than 5:30 a.m. And being active and actually awake for [...]

I went and visited my sister and her boyfriend in the big city on Wednesday and invited myself to stay the night, because I was having such a good time. We didn’t do anything really spectacular, mostly just sat and chatted (and let’s not forget the fabulous ice cream), but [...]

This might be annoying, but I am going to start time-stamping my posts. The system that wordpress uses just doesn’t work for me because it isn’t on Central Time and sometimes I can’t figure out when I posted last. So…

I started IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program) yesterday. It was overwhelming, but I had a sense of satisfaction that I was doing something productive to help myself.
I was able to see a doctor, because someone had cancelled their appointment at 10:00 a.m. So much different than the programs at the agency where I work. The support [...]
