Human Sacrifice - Just how dangerous is this for me?

OK, so a lot of us (myself included) have "self-medicated whether it be with drugs, booze, sex, self-harm or all of the previous plus maybe things I've never done so I didn't think of it.

Since the very first time I've been on meds, I am going to a bar.

I'm what you would call a "binge-drinker" I generally do not keep alcohol in my home but out at the bar it can be 5 -25 drinks a night.

It may be dangerous for me tonight but it's a friend's birthday.  I was going to go a few wks ago for a friend's divorce party but then I slammed 3 of my fingers into the garage door and took it as a sign.

Today, I took all my meds but i slept most of the day.

So I took THAT as a sign that I was OK to go.

I guess we'll see!

Wish me luck...


It's been a busy and kind of rough wk

I feel overwhelmed with getting ready for our unit inspection and even though one of my inner circle people tried to show me how to hang stuff, I completely could,kt do it.

Hence tape.
Lots of tape.
To hold up my step-daughter's curtains.

I have a sore throat and I am tired.

I joined an online bipolaR group and we'll see how that goes.

I need to pick some pics for Son"s and Step-Daughter's frames...

I have some other pics that require frames.

We planted flowers for the first time ever. EVER in my life. My parents were big on it but I wasn't.

But I had a dream about my Mom and that prompted me to do it.

Though Hubs did most of the work.

Nice evening

Last night I went out with one of my old and dear friends from college (the 2nd time I dropped out, not the 1st).

Anyway, she took me out to dinner at ESM's and we talked, a lot.

I suspect that I did most of the talking but it helped - it really did.

It's also made me wonder if my noon meds are too strong...

Anyway, I felt more "normal" with her on the outing.

Today I saw my Mom for Mother's Day and I thanked her for keeping me (rather than terminating me).

I got a bit emotional but I needed to say it.

She was not keen on my meds or my drowsiness, but she does love me...

Go figure.

I'm bummed

I'm really not going to enjoy it now that "Positive Steps" is over.

After my stint at the day hospital out-patient program - I went downhill.

I hope it doesn't happen again...

This breaks my heart

I should avoid the news - I get so caught up in it that it keeos me in tears.

The latest is the fact that they finally found the body of a young boy, Robbire Reiner fell into a river near his home after his birthday and bfore xmas.

It keeps making my cry.

Over the years many stories have touched me in this manner and I can't seem to shake it.

Just checking

MEDS:

0.5 mg (because isn't covered) Clonazepam - 2 pills, 4x/day
10 mg Abilify - 1 pill 1x/day
100 mg Lamictal - 1 & 3/4 pills 3x/day for one wk
10 mg Propanolol 1 pill 2x/day

So that's 16 and 1/4 pills a day, right?

Seriously?

Oh and ALL my test results were apparently good. "Excellent" was the word I believe the good DR used.

I think he may have been shocked.
