THE WEATHER is getting hotter this end. It's over 25C. That's hot for London. Strangely I'm not sweating like a swine these days. Maybe NOT taking heroin has something to do with that little difference. I always knew heroin was doing me no good; it was just hard to put a finger on what wrong it actually did (possibly because it did everything "wrong")... I feel a lot better now I'm on those pills I was prescribed months ago and did take in the beginning then somehow got out of the habit of taking... I don't know. Even though they're not antidepressants they do make me less depressed and though they're not mood stabilizers they do stop my mood lunging and plunging.
When I found out risperidone is used as an antidepressant, I wasn't quite so squeamish about taking it. Maybe there is, after all, such a thing as placebo effect.Now I'm lurking down the library hoping to bump into someone who will lend me the price of a drink. Broke till tomorrow. Ukh. Then I'm meant to be meeting one of my creditors at 9am. No rest for the wicked you see.
Ukh I've got to go. It's too quiet in here. I hate Sundays...
Funny how relative heat is. 25 is what I have my A/C set at - I can't stand it any colder. But I know that 19 in the spring feels hot. 19 in the fall feels cold.
ReplyDeleteLast summer when we had our Irish family visiting - it was a cool summer by our standards but they could hardly bear the heat. I was wrapped in sweaters and blankets.
It's all in what you're used to.
Glad your meds are working for you - and that you can tell they are.
i was just wondering whether or not it was placebo effect, but i don't think it is, i can feel the pills doing something, it is most extraordinary
ReplyDeleteevery 2 or 3 years it does get past 35C and it does feel intolerable basically because London is not built for sustained heat, so when that happens it just gets ridiculous
Hi, Gleds. Well done! Believe me, I know it isn't easy and I know exactly how it feels to meet with your creditors! Love from Sicily xx
ReplyDeleteo no i made it out to be something it isn't i was only joking i meant creditors as in friends i have borrowed £5s and £10ses from ... my formal "creditors" i don't know where to find any more which does my head in i would like to sort my debts out i really would but don't even know how to any more, it's awful

Hamsters always look like they've had their ears bitten. I wonder if that's what people do: bite hamsters' ears?
ReplyDeleteI met my creditor (single) and gave her £30. I owe another one £20. This is creditors as in people I know. Not Barclaycard the Bastardcard.
Have a good time yng Nghymru as they say. I got GCSE Welsh ~ didn't know that did ya!
didn't know you could do GCSE Welsh - wish I'd done it now my son lives there and his girlfriend is Welsh... although she isn't a native Welsh speaker
ReplyDeleteO yeah it was compulsory at my school. I think all schools in Wales at least offer it...
