What's new?
I joined Twitter. Who knows if I'll ever use it though. I still haven't quite grasped this new fascination.
What else?
I lowered the Effexor yesterday. Effexor is also known as Venlafaxine. DO NOT TAKE IT!!!!!!!! I have been trying to come off this shit for years. It's an antidepressant. It is probably easier to quit smoking.
I can feel my eyes moving in my skull! That's how bad it is! And I only lowered it by half, half of the lowest dose they prescribe. I was, at one point, taking the highest dose they prescribe in the evening and then another dose in the morning. I had been on it for so long. Years later (woo hoo) I am on the lowest dose they make, and I just chopped that in half yesterday! I CAN DO IT!!!!
The first time I took Effexor I hallucinated. I went online that same day and signed a petition to have this shit taken off the market. I swore I would never take it again. And here I am almost ten years later still depressed (worse in fact) and now having to go through withdrawal. I should have stuck to my gut.
Oh well. Hindsight is 20/20.
On a side note, back to Twitter. Did you know they have a location function? Mmmm hmmmm. You can actually choose to have your twitters tracked to pinpoint where you are located as you post that twitter. WHAT?
Hello stalkers. My name is Skoosh. Please, by all means, kill me.
Yeah no. I didn't check that box.

I wish you all the best in getting past the Effexor. Tapering down will still suck, but I know you can do this
good for you (about crazy hallucinating meds)
