So the good news is I got a new job, really excited and looking forward to it. I have been at the current job for 12 years, whew. So with my level of access and position the SOP is to escort the person from the building when they give notice, apparently I am very trustworthy and can stay till the end. What is irritating about that? I start the new job Monday so have a week overlap I have to cover.

Tough job emotionally, likely you may have to escort some people with sob stories and/or anger, with you representing the company. Hopefully most will be happy to get out and going to something better. Don't want to be Debbie Downer, that just came to mind. But hey, congratulations on making a move you want and wish you happy trails.

Ugh. I am super unstable right now and it is irritating me.

It kind of ought to be in the upsetting thread, because that descriptor fits outward reality better--but that's just the idiot me, you see, then there's the real "me" on top of that who knows it's stupid and just wants me to cut it out. It's not me being upset, it's just my stupid brain.

Not gonna bore you with the details. But when you guys are all "Clodfobble's brain" this and "Mr. Clod's a lucky man" that, just know that I'm a giant pain in the ass during these times and his tolerance now is when he earns his keep tenfold. I'm only 34, but I told him in all honesty it would not surprise me if I suddenly went through menopause in the next year, because it's always been strongly tied to hormones and shit is off the rails in here. I upped my anti-seizure meds a couple months ago, and it helped, but didn't halt the general widening of the sine wave. The doc said I'm still on the low side of the therapeutic blood level and there's room to up them some more if I want. I don't really want, but I may experiment anyway, for the good of the land.





...And see, this is why I have to type shit out. Because just now, in this very minute, it occurred to me that I have continued to take my med once a day at this new higher dose, instead of half twice a day as is more common, because it's always worked better for me that way. (Full dose at night helps me sleep better, while a half-dose in the morning made me a zombie.) So maybe it helped but I'm also crashing harder with the higher dose still being all at once. I'll try splitting it before I try upping it again.

Man, thanks for all the help, you guys are great.

My lack of motivation, and I know I'm going to regret it. :/

I'm sure I could motivate you if I was there to get behind you: you'd need to go back to work just to get some rest.
