How would you know if instead of a flu vaccine they only gave you water (or nothing)? My arm isn't more sore than usual so I'm wondering.

I'm sure this is pointless to ask because they're two different shots but when I get my shot there's always a bit of an oily substance around the injection site. The skin just feels oily?

Also sometimes I get my depot and I can't feel a thing for days/weeks after but then the next time I get it done in a different spot it hurts like hell for days. Could be just the way he did the procedure, it can also depend on how relaxed your muscles where.
Thanks for this!

Thanks. My arm already hurts from wrenched muscles or something but it doesn't hurt any additional amount from the shot. It's hard to tell.

Oh ok, I wouldn't let it worry you. It's unethical to mislead a patient like that without consent. I'm sure you got your flu shot.

Thanks. I'm paranoid to wonder I guess.

The rain passed by. It's humid and too warm in my place. I just cracked the window open but it's not enough. I don't want to put the AC on. :/

i feel an amazing rush and relief after i post my true feelings on fb because i rarely post and when i do its short - like a sentence or two - or a picture. i just posted something relatable and brought something real to the table and i feel super relief and a slight rush. it was something philosophical and like i said relatable.

oh yea i got a 74 on my recent psychology exam and an 82 on my english essay. both subjects are hard for me. i dont like being told what to write. id make a better grade if i could choose what i could write about because obviously id have more interest in my own subjects. but its ok. this english class is a lesson in learning how to write appropriately.

It really shouldn't hurt, usually things like tetanus hurt due to the toxins, the flu shot has no toxin.....

hey guys work was ok. i was holdings this lady's bag of apples and it slipped out of my hand and thudded into the cart. i had my back turned to her so she thought i just threw them in there like that. she said you need to be more careful with people's apples. i felt my face turn red and i said sorry, it fell out of my hand. at least i can see that she didnt know exactly what happened. other than that work was fine. now i am off this weekend!!!

Hi RollCall! What's the craic with yas!

I'm in really good form today, heading out for dinner tonight in a fancy restaurant and then straight to the pub after. I'm kind of broke so it might have to be a cheap night but I'll do my best to get as drunk as possible!

My anxiety is bad today. I'd better take hydroxyzine. I wish I didn't have these problems.

Good morning

I stayed up all night. Wasted about 20 pages making rhymes and throwing them away.

It's hard xp

The coffee that I make is really strong and I took double Prozacs to give motivation. (Stupid I keep doing it. This is the last time). No more coffee for now.. Prozacs (Fluoxetine) Metabolite (Norfluoxetine) has been discontinued in trials because of heart palpitations.

The Akathisia in my spine about one to two hours after I take the Abilify everyday is really starting to bug me. It's worse when my anxiety is bad and it's hot in here. I don't want to change meds though because that could be worse.

Pretty good. I had a lot more breakthrough noises on the branded drug, less of that now on the generic for some reason. Of course during the initial two to three weeks of generic there was a lot of breakthrough noise. Now I don't really hear the man, it's more of an industrial type din or bang.
Thanks for this!

But that's why I'm scared to switch ap. I don't want the man's voice to come back. Plus the bangs scare me too.

Evening!

Just had a Shepherd's Pie for dinner... will save the other half for my birthday.

Found out Netflix has the Swedish version of Wallander so been watching that this afternoon. Great show.

Also good news, Scotland have got through to the Quarter Finals of the Rugby World Cup.
