    How's Your Day Been? Each Day is Different, So Make Your Mark Daily

    Have a broken toe and the arm chairs is my domain. So going out for the last 2 mornings have been great. Also stressful too. I am worried about me and facing the road ahead of me. I like it where I am but it is also not good either as I need to grow beyond here too.

    Effexor Xr, Efexor Xr, Venlafaxine...

    I have taken 2 x 150mg a day Effexor XR for a long time. I do not think they help me. I am told that they are hard to get off of. You have to do it gradually. No side affects for me. Having said they have just recently put me on a mood stabilizer 1 tablet 2 times a day, Epilim EC500. This pill...

    Help Me Calm Down Please

    I'd say most people don't really encounter 10 traumas in their entire lifetime... I mean, in a vague sense of "injury"- sure, absolutely. But I think there's a real danger in throwing a "trauma!" label on things that maybe don't qualify. (In this way, I'd say that the criteria we use to definite...
