Hiya friends,
I talk to my therapist tomorrow I have a lot to talk about, especially since it's been 5 weeks since last time I talked to him. I've been doing so-so. Work is hectic, I need to find a new job but I feel hopeless every time i sit down to look for anything I might be qualified for. Everything is business this, or underqualified that. Maybe I should hit the books, and work on my grammar and punctuation so i could be a copy editor? I definitely need to work on my resume. I have a type cover.
My reading group is tackling my favorite book, so Im helping people understand it. It's very rewarding. I wish I could do this stuff more often. It's very time consuming though.
I think benzo's are messing with my cognition. I'm definitely having trouble stringing long sentences and/or multiple sentences together. Unacceptable! haha I see my pdoc on the 22nd, so hopefully we can find a way to get off it while keeping my sleep routine, if I can call it sleep. PTSD and sleep really mix well. I've sacrificed enough to psychiatry, this is the one thing I will not give up--the ability to read books. That's my line in the sand. Give them an inch and they'll make you a numb, dribbling, zombie.
Tried twitter agan for a 4 month trial run, I changed, but man, I met some deranged people. After I saw one woman talk about dipping a man in acid, saw how many people liked it, I said enough. That place is crazy town. What madness.
On page 134 of my book. Still not going to publish it, at least for another year.
Newtus, are you working on a project these days?

Yeah I need to get off of benzos, too. I have so much proof that they screw with my cognition. They diminish my "mental acuity". I always say that to my psychiatrist and I'm sure he has no idea what I'm talking about. Anyway. I am getting off of Zyprexa, as that one has messed with my head for long enough. Risperdal is more agreeable for me. Anyway, if you're comfortable doing it, I could help with the resume stuff. I just recently helped a friend with his resume. Of course, no pressure at all.
