Oh gina! Try not to stress. I had to get all my wisdom teeth removed, and the bottom ones were impacted too. You'll get there and they'll gas you and you'll feel really good/awesome. Trust me! I wish they sold the gas on the streets. Then they'll knock you out... and you'll wake up in the recovery room. No problems! I was scared too.

I assure you you'll be okay though.

Hugs, lady!

Did any of you ever get manic from morphine? My mum did. But she wouldn't give me any.

I am very much in control, my mood is stable, I slept 7 hours. Probability that this happened by change is low but I'd say not yet significant. I should really find a way to establish probabilities.

I am not doing so well this morning. I'm close to tears and my anxiety level is on a rise. I've been for a walk but it didn't help. Headed to work. . .

[raspberrytorte]

I don't know. I've never done morphine.

Do they give prescriptions for morphine?

[raspberrytorte]

Or do you have to find a drug dealer?

[raspberrytorte]

Anyway, therapy appointment this morning. Don't want to go. Too late to cancel. Help me!

You have to have a lot of physical pain and a specialist who doesn't know what BP means. Or pretend you have SZ. Emphasis: schizoaffective disorder (specialist: "I'm a doctor so I'm not gonna ask what that means, how hard can it be, sounds like schizophrenia. It's probably fine.").

Drug dealers may have heroin as well as morphine. Heroin is such a hassle, so I'd use morphine.

Thanks for the advice, icare.

I'll probably go find a drug dealer. My GP thinks I'm the criminaly insane or something.

I still haven't had my first therapy appointment. I'd kill for a therapy appointment.

Maybe I'll tell her that with a cold, passive demeanour, when asked: "So you have schizoaffective disorder?" "Schizoaffective disorder. You know, the other day I said: 'I would kill (short silence) for a therapy appointment."

"And it's not really borderline. More antisocial. But we'll see..."

Home this morning, yesterday was a good day, thought I was on an upswing then woke up today feeling like I just can't cope with anything.

I was on morphines with other pain meds...no mania. But I slipped into a deep almost two year depression

Doing a lot better today. Saw psych nurse. I've lost more weight! Really tired though, got up early. Meds are going to stay the same for now. Soon I'll be driving again and have my own car, can't wait!

[gina_re]

Eating ice cream considering I can't open my mouth very wide. But it was a success, just gotta deal with the pain and swelling.

Packed a bag, but so afraid. Too afraid? I don't know. Immobilized.

[Nammu]

Got up, got hair cut...success!

Haven't had a bad itching fit in several hours. Maybe I'm finally on the mend. Yes-haw.

I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to continue for the rest of the week without antipsychotic. My mind isn't very clear.

[Icare dixit]

I gave up. Lot of fear.

I had a miserable time at Scrabble and left early. Our director has quit and it's really disorganized with all this waiting between games. Other people chat but i just pace the hallway. I just don't have a good time anymore so i left early and don't want to go back.

That's great news.

Yeah, too afraid. Too many complicating factors.

But I'll keep it packed. Having done it in a bad wave it was so hard to focus even just that handful of things(!) Wouldn't want to have to do that again.

I'm not going to attempt to go to work tomorrow. (Was a mess doing that Tuesday.)

Distract. Distract. Distract.

Was a good day today, definitely a better night than the past few nights. Maybe its because I decided to give chatting a rest and stopped searching for decent conversation. People are always complaining that they are bored as if its my job to entertain them, Screw that. Writing and reading is definitely the way to go for someone like me.
