Cars and other things

Well let me start by saying, I am feeling 100% better than I did a couple of days ago.  Things that seemed to be impossible to achieve were always in my grasp even though I could not see it.  Since the Valdoxan I have been able to get back into the swing of things.  The stress about being late with work for school was all over worked in my head.  In fact I had completely gotten the week wrong that the first major assignment was due, its not due till midnight Sunday night.  So I have been able to catch up on the required reading and have most of the answers formulating in my head.  What would Freud say about that :) Anyway to keep my sanity while studying I only sit down for 30 minute sessions, this enables my brain to get a rest and well thats a good thing :).  So I try take about 15 to 20 minutes off between sessions and do things that really don't require to much brain power. I think I mentioned on one of my many blog posts that the car stereo in my car is pretty in adequate

I have the meds

Hi, Well im a bit better today, don't want yesterday to happen again for a very very long time.  I got into see my doctor today and we now have a plan in place to ensure I can have the medications I need. You see this medication is a first in class drug, ie there isn't another drug that works the same way.  Normally in Australia this would mean automatic addition to the PBS scheme that pays the bulk of the cost of the medications.  However for political reasons this drug has been excluded. I wrote a very long letter to both my state and federal ministers today explaining what happens when I can't have the medications, and why there isnt another drug I can take.  One can only hope that it has some effect on those morons who make the final decisions. Anyway took a tablet this afternoon and slept some, feel better and will take another one in a couple hours and go to bed, should see me feeling heaps better tomorrow.  At times you know I can forget that I have an illnes

I want to tell

Would love to tell u all how i feel right now and the dark thoughts that are filling my mind. Im afraid if i do that you would never read my blog or want anything to do with ne ever again. All i can say is its dark here and i am all alone

The end maybe or is it ?

Hi all; This post has been a long time in coming, lots of things have changed in my life since I first wrote this blog and it has been a mish mash of different topics and things that were going on in my life.  Importantly it allowed me to share with others my journey with mental illness. To that end I feel the blog has been a success, although we haven't had many comments we have consistently had lots of readers.  For me its been fun, and at times a stress relief when things haven't been the greatest, my greatest satisfaction came from the fact I knew I was helping someone. Right now I have a ton on my plate, with school, having to shift and everything coming together at once.  I feel massively overloaded by it all, but realize that deep down this is what I wanted.  I don't want the chance to contemplate to much, I just want to do and get it done. Just over 3 weeks ago now I stopped the diet, when the stress of the move and everything that went with it arrived I cou
