I am in the process of making an apointment to go to River Oaks and talk with someone and get a tour. I take my meds every day. I'm kinda wondering if upping the Effexor has contributed to lethargy, crying, hopelessness -- or if I was already sliding down so that the dose -- which was only upped 5 days ago -- hasn't had time to take effect. Also have a phone call into that physician.

To make my sense of being overwhelmed whole and complete, the apartment has developed a problem with mice. So far, 2 dead in traps, and another live one seen running about last night. They are so tiny and rather cute -- except when they are running about -- eeek.
