Not again

I'm so disappointed.

Every time the doctors switch my meds, I think they surely have found the magic combination that will suddenly make me feel normal. Like a normal person who laughs and jokes and wants to get up every morning and has energy and interest in making a difference in the world.

Doesn't look like it's going to happen this time either.

I'm less depressed. But that is replaced by a building anxiety. I feel anxious, nervous, jittery, unsettled. And I have this overwhelming hopeless feeling, a sort of "well, is this it? is this how I'm going to feel for the rest of my life?"

Because if it is, I'm not sure how to deal with it.

I think you need to go to a better doctor. This happens way too often for you. And it's ridiculous, because this is so common - there HAS to be something out there to alleviate the symptoms, all of the symptoms. I want you to feel happy, Amy! *hug*

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...

Is it OK to own a Canadian?

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...
