"You told me you weren't like other men," she said, shaking her head at him when the storm of laughter had passed. He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement." "You can say that again," she told him. "I have a...." "Oh, shut up."

Aw, don't go on anti-depressants; they don't work that well! I'm just not much of a family kind of person; not all of us are as lucky as Clark. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother and one of my aunts, but that's as far as my love for my family stretches. Which is why I end up going out with friends almost every day of their stay, or I stay holed up in my room without even bothering to make up any lame excuses. Other than that, Christmas can be pretty cool. If you're still having an awful time though, I really hope you feel better. And if you don't - don't worry, be happy, because it's going to be over in a couple days! All the hubbub dissipates on Boxing Day, as long as you don't go shopping. Cheers! Mirage
Clark: You're really high maintenance, aren't you?
Lois: Yes, but I'm worth it!

For people who need anti-depressants, they can -- quite literally -- be a life-saver.
So please don't put them down based on anecdotal evidence. :p Especially what sounds like inaccurate anecdotal evidence . . .
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

Aw, don't go on anti-depressants; they don't work that well! Some weird-in-the-head relatives of mine are on them, and I'd hardly say they're any happier...just heavily drugged and not really conscious. Funny, that sounds a lot like I was *before* starting medication Only, of course, I was also permanently pissed off... I like me much better now But you do have to be careful with any medication -- my husband's had bad reactions to several different SSRI's. And unfortunately, the only real way to find something that works for you is trial and error. PJ

Maybe I'll just stick to marajuana - it seems less controversial

I just wanted you all to know that I no longer hate Christmas (well, at least until next year ). The holiday is over and once again I can honestly claim that I lived through it. And so... I wish all peace on earth and good will towards men (and women). (who is going to go sit down until this unfamiliar holiday cheer passes)
