Thanks all.

My friend has been here for a few days, and we've had quite a bit of fun, but I'm beginning to feel a bit drained. It's not that we've even done anything terribly taxing, it's just hard for me to be around anyone, even someone I've known my whole life, for this long. I think that I'm very much a loner by nature and too much contact with other people is just draining. I feel bad for being tired out because it's only been three days, but I'm feeling so heavy. I don't think it's really showing because I've been fairly alert and "with it". What's weird is that normally I'd send this friend an email to say how low I've been feeling, but faced with the prospect of telling her in person, while she's staying with me ... I just can't. Every time I try, I smile and tell a joke or something instead. This would almost be easier if I were still catatonic the way I was a few weeks ago, before the new medication set in and made me a functioning human being again...
