To those of you I've neglected, I'm sorry. Haven't been on the site too much. The support and advice did NOT go un-noticed, you're all awesome!!

So..........went to see a doctor last week. She kinda explained my current predicament as a "needs meds STAT" situation. Basically, I'm way stressed, way worn out, and I need help. I was prescribed Zoloft and have been faithfully taking it for eight days, now. WHAT a difference!!! I feel such a weight lifted from me, I'm in this infectious good mood all day long. My tips at work skyrocketed!!! Can't believe I'm getting such quick results, it's almost too good to be true.
Next step is finding a therapist or shrink that will charge me on a "sliding scale" cause $$$'s tight. Like I've said before, I don't want to depend on medication to make me happy. I've got alot of shit to sort through in my head, and I know now I can't do this alone. Hopefully the combination of the meds and counseling will teach me how to handle things in my everyday life with stride. Eventually, I want to ween myself off and try to just be me, ya know?? As my friend, Miguel, would say---"Work it out, girl, work it out".
So........we'll see. Cross your fingers for me, kids.


Anybody ever see the movie Donnie Darko???? I'm looking for some input on this one, cause it COMPLETELY befuddled me. There were a million loose ends that were never tied up at the end, charcters that never quite developed, and questions that never seemed to be resolved. This may sound odd, but I was entertained nonetheless. I can't make a final opinion on whether I'd go so far as to call it a GOOD flick, though, cause I'm still scratching my head. I'm hoping if I watch it again I can cement my opinion, but I have my doubts.

So anywho, hope everybody's summer is going swimmingly. Be safe, be sane, stay cool.
