Thank you for sharing.. I was off my meds n started losing it: hospital for unintended laceration near wrist, overdrawn bank account, self medicating, depression, even a lil self mutilation.. not related to wrist. Today I've acquired more vyvanse and will receive more klonipin after the first.. At 18 it was major depression, now at 25 it's bipolar/ADHD etc. The vyvanse works wonders, for the time being. Benzodiazepines have done nothing but lure me into a false sense of reality, ativan was muc

@fetalbetal I know you have to be extremely careful when bipolar taking ADHD meds. Most of them can cause all sorts of very bad side effects - even major psychosis. Best of luck.

Is it worthwhile explaining to your boss what's going on or would it only make things worse? (It really depends on the person)

[allbabiesareatheists]

@golddiggingants - not terribly useful, no. Since he's decided that it wasn't me - he meant to go after another team allegedly. All I got was "nevermind". Not "sorry" or "my bad". But at least the pressure is off. Until the next time.

@allbabiesareatheists I don't know about this particular person, but with some, that's as close to an apology as you're ever likely to get. Strikes me as douchebaggery, but there's not a lot that can be done about that.

@golddiggingants - biggest irony of this? His name is Jesus (Hay-soos)! LOL! So I (an atheist) have ultimately been dissed by Jesus. It's epic.

@allbabiesareatheists Sounds about right to me.

My ex had ADHD and he would bite his nails down to the nub where the skin would bleed. He was one WEIRD dumb fuck

@MouseHusic - not at all. My dosage is low even when at max. 30mg wouldn't give many a "buzz". I just feel dragged out for a day or so. No worse than when I quit coffee.
