Another downer post--warnings for depressive ramblings

[zouzounaki]

It's kind of just been one ridiculously bad day after another lately: today and I woke up and the side completely snapped off my glasses. We don't have the money for a replacement pair and my spare pair was ruined when my sister's dog dragged me into a brick wall (they're spectacularly mangled! I kept them, just to show people!) I threw up last night and was kept awake from some horrendous gas pains. My period continues like I'm hemorrhaging internally. Thursday is my sister's 40th birthday and I really wanted all of this bullshit out of the way before then, so I could be festive and happy for her. But of course there's a frustration to being a stupid, fucking agoraphobe, and broke, and trying to plan a nice birthday party; I'm a bit limited.

But, as always, I hate to end on such a down note, so here's a Merlin fanvid, using "Lancelot" from Spamalot and, not surprisingly seeing as this is one of my posts, centering on Lancelot! xP

Peace, Ghani

Stomach issues + depression = some of the worst feelings you'll ever have in your life. Yeeeeeesh! I know a little too much about that. And as you know, I am here for you, rooting for you all the way. *hugs*

I'm sorry, honey! Crap and then crap. Sigh. You know it gets better, right? Stay strong.

Give your sister my hugs for her 40th. I just passed that one, darnit. :)

And take a couple of hugs for yourself. ::HUGS::

My brother reached 40 a couple of years ago, so my sister comes second, lol! But, still, i want to do it up for her, especially since she always said she'd have a book published by 40 and she has!

Hugs back! Thank you, dahling!

Hugs from me and various kitty sounds from Tim and Molly.

I've been having some gastrointestinal distress myself, but I think it's due to Prozac withdrawal -- I ran out, and the bureaucracy that supplies my meds, slow to begin with, was slower than usual because of overhauls caused by state budget cuts.

Yep, the best way to balance the budget is to cut services to the poor and needy. That's just SO much better and fairer than raising taxes on the filthy stinking rich, which I daresay there are more of per capita in California than in any other state. Thanks Ahnuld. I like your movies but you suck as guv.

Anyway...sorry to whine at you when you're going through so much shit yourself. Hugs again, and early birthday wishes to Ann. By the way, our sisters are almost the same age -- mine is 40, and will turn 41 in December.

Ugh, don't get me started on the health care system. Of course, if the democrats hadn't challenged and emasculated their own presidents movement for better health care, we'd already have something in place helping. My physician went off the last time I saw her, that is the politicians could just come and sit in a private practice office for a day, they'd see real people with real problems. She also expressed the desire to knock 'em about a bit. That's why I continue to see her, hehe!

I think mine might be a bit med related, too. I've mentioned I've upped my dosage lately? Well, I lower it for two days consecutive and I suddenly get my erstwhile period with a vengeance and I bloat up like a Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade balloon!

Hugs! Prozac withdrawal is... Well, withdrawal from any med is nasty but I remember that one's particularly tough! Hang in there!
