A few things

[fuyu]

- All indications are that I am a stunning Effexor success story. I've been feeling much better on the meds, I am suffering literally no side effects (my blood pressure's gone back to normal; evidently it was a temporary spike, which the doctor said I didn't need to worry about), and all this on a low dose!

I may essay later about my experiences and how it's felt. I'm very happy with the results.

- I have an Etsy account and a whole shitload of craft supplies. These two things may converge into a store at some point soonish. Look forward to candy, small decor paintings, marzipan fruit baskets, and decoupage boxes.

- 7 Things You Didn't Know About PETA. If you know me, you know that I love animals, adore my pets, and think animal abusers are horrible people. That said, damn do I hate PETA.

- I've been really debating going back to Disney for another semester, hopefully in merchandise this time. I'm this close to graduating and my parents' health insurance won't cover me forever (even though it certainly WOULD cover me now, if I went), but another semester at Disney would look so good on my resume, it'd be so good to have a job for a while, and I really miss Epcot...

I'm not sure you know how awesome it is for me to hear that your meds are making you better.

It's pretty awesome for me too. I really should essay about it - I just feel normal, day to day, but I'm less irritable and that whole crushing despair, suicidal ideation, depths-of-depression thing? That doesn't happen anymore.

...I just realized this is the most appropriate icon ever.

I am so, so glad to hear that the medz are working for you. It's wonderful when that happens, especially if it doesn't require too much Prescription Roulette to get there.

That is awesome to hear. ♥

The thought of meds usually makes me squeamish, but if they're working that well without side effects? Woot!
