Big suprise, I take a drug called Effexor. It works by affecting serotonin and norepinephrine levels in my head. It's an anti-depressent, but I wasn't just depressed, I was also extremely happy. But going from depressed to whatever at the drop of a hat isn't healthy. Readers from a while back know that if I go off the drugs, I've got about 24-36 hours before bad shit starts to happen. Headaches -> loss of orientation -> REALLY BAD HEADACHES -> dunno. The issue I have, is that at one point I was off my drugs for 3 days. I just happened to spend a lot of time around Portal. I felt fine, but after I left, the headaches kicked in immediately. Withdrawl was sudden and very painful. Being around her was having the same effect as mood altering drugs. Emotions are mechanical, a complex interaction of chemicals, and apparently nothing more. I find that depressing, though I understand the truth at the heart of it. This is not to say that emotions mean any less, or that how I feel about someone is devalued. It just takes a little while for it to all sink in. Give Rilo Kiley a shot. I'm also getting into an Emo (GAH!) band called "The Exit".Labels: Drugs
