  • Doctor's Appointments

    I went to a new psychiatrist today. I've been waiting four months for this appointment. I found out that I'm probably taking too much Geodon, which is why I almost fall asleep driving to work every morning. And I found out that the Geodon is supposed to be taken with food. Something I have not been doing. Food actually makes the medicine "work." Maybe that's why I'm still crazy.

    What I hate the most is that I really do have to eat for this medicine to work. I know he's not lying to me because on the nights that I eat dinner and take my meds I'm not still sleepy in the morning.

    Anyway.during my first appointment (yes, I ended up having to see him twice in one day), I was actually so sleepy that the doctor made me sleep in the waiting room until the meds wore off. He said that I was asleep while I was waiting to see him, snoring too, and that I was nodding off during the appointment. He told me all of this the second time I saw him. Apparently, during my "first" appointment I was nodding off and incoherent. I don't remember it and I don't remember driving to the appointment. Yay me.

    Well, at least I didn't have my clothes on inside out. Yesterday, I wore my shirt inside out all day, went everywhere with it on inside out. Went to Outback around five to get my money from working all weekend and was told that my shirt was inside out. Nice.

    This should be a short week. I had Monday off, I will always have Mondays off. Tomorrow is Wednesday and it's all down hill from there.

  • I'm too old to party on a Wednesday night, then get up at 5am and work 7a to 5p. I'm done-zo.

    Life sucks. Matt came to visit, but other than that, complete crap. I'm ready to give up. I can't do this anymore. I can't sleep, I can't eat. I can't to a damn thing right.

    I screwed up the deposit for work someday last week. That's a big damn deal.

    I can't even remember to take my meds, they are in an organizer and I still can't remember, there are too many to take. Half way through the day I wonder why I feel like there is an elephant on my chest, then I remember I forgot to take them.

    I think Matt is cheating on me. For those of you who I've talked to in person about this, this is another event that just happened today. The last thing he did was go "camping" now he's having "dinner" with someone who he used to date, who he has told he he's slept with. And He's coming to visit me this Friday. I've very confused. Sent me in to a running frenzie.
    I've taken up golf, the last thing I thought I would EVER do.
    Work is crazy.
    I'm going back to school in the fall to work on pre-med stuff.
    My weight was really low today at my therapy session. So low it scared me.
    We (me, my sister, and Erica) moved in to a new house. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, big front porch with a swing, screened in back porch, pool in the backyard, fire place. It's everything we wanted. And some one to take care of the pool for us. It's the kind of neighborhood you would raise children in.
    I've have a lot of reading to catch up on. It seems like I buy books all the time and never have time to read them. I just finished White Oleander by Janet Fitch. And I'm currently reading Playing for Pizza by John Grisham.

    Happy Wednesday!

"Bear in mind, people with eating disorders tend to be both competitive and intelligent. We are incredibly perfectionistic. We often excel in school, athletics, artistic pursuits. We also tend to quit without warning. Refuse to go to school, drop out, quit jobs, leave lovers, move, lose all our money. We get sick of being impressive. Rather, we tire of having to seem impressive. As a rule, most of us never really believed we were any good in the first place."
