Sorry, SG, I mis-read your post. I thought you said you thought she was faking all this time. My mistake.

omg. i am not faking whatEVER and never WAS faking (ok--that one time? but only to make you feel good) about myself and GRIFF YOU STUPID FUCKING HIPPIE I KNOW YOU ARE READING THIS SO HEAR IT-----I AM NOT MAKING EXCUSES YOU FUCK ONLY PEOPLE LIKE YOU MAKE EXCUSES SO PLEASE DON'T RESPOND TO ME!!!

Whew.

anyway-------- i feel a bit on edge. that's what is happening with me. theyDID take me off all those drugs cold turkey, a DOCTOR did so I am assuming it's "OK" to do that and I DID have a seizure. OK??????? as far as this being my 'impr9oved' version---omg, that is in SUCH poor taste I can't believe my eyes!~ here, in the cellar! people JUDGING other people! wowowowow

here's a thought---WHY do people that hate you respond to your threads? I never did get that. i mean, what is the point?

Bri.
If I've learned one thing it's to tell doctors what YOU need and not the other way around.

Don't suffer. Make an appointment. Read this article or something else to help you make a case. http://bipolar.about.com/cs/antidep/..._ssridisc1.htm

Ask questions. What is this med vacation for?( personally I don't understand the reasoning behind it if taking a vacation makes a person worse. Then by introducing any medication will provide a false positive?)

Tell the doctor if he is going to resume ONE medication then he'd better do it because you are miserable?

Flint, I know you mis-read the post, and that neither you nor SG were dissing Bri. My post here isn't about that...but I had to put in my two cents.

Having said that, I want to say what a great point you made. Most of us, save a few flat personalities, have all kinds of feelings and emotions wrapped up in our crazy little heads. I wouldn't want people any other way; flat is boring.

so you too are saying i am flat.

would you prefer "well balanced," "grounded" or "even tempered?"

It doesn't take a Christopher Columbus to prove that wrong...

No, BigV, you are not flat.

You are a veritable bubble machine of life!

so you too are saying i am thin skinned and full of hot air.

so you too are saying i have a base personality and that I have no sense of direction, only going whichever way the wind blows.

I have this problem m'self most of the time.

I find my style of humor ranges from dry to dessicated. This effort was parched, dehydrated, positively lyophalyzed, and could only be rendered recognizable (but still unpalatable) by boiling the sh*t out of it.

Your kind remarks are well taken in the spirit intended. I thank you. If I am perceived in this way, it is a fine compliment as I strive for this every day.

Dry humor? I like my humor like beef jerky: dry, salty, and I like to bite off more than I can chew.

The dry humor is what makes you both aces, in my book.
