The Upside of Drugs

Drugs: bad, harmful, dangerous, unhealthy, addictive, chemicals, and unnatural

"I'm in a dark place right now... very dark."
Well, when you don't take care of yourself and you launch into a flurry of destructive behavior... of course you are going to be in a dark place. And it doesn't help when all you have in your dark place is "sex... all the time. LOTS of sex." Thank you, Stephanie, for summing that up so well. What I have learned over the years is that people deal with their problems in lots of different ways... there are some people that do the obvious stupid thing and there are others who actually want to get better and help themselves.

I never wanted to end up suffering like my mother did with her different medications. Some made her worse, some made her a little better, and others gave her the stress tolerance of Tinkerbell. Angry fairy. Which is why I was so hesitant to start taking meds myself. I'd end up acting like a crazy psycho and they wouldn't make a bit of difference. Things got to a point where I'd have to either make a decision to help myself or be like the other people who wallow in their "dark place".  I chose to ask for help.

Everything is shiny... I'm so happy about life... is this real life?
Other than me having the attention span of squirrel, it seems to be too good to be true. So I will wait for the bad but until then, I'm busy basking.
