Seems like you've got an awfully short shaft there, Z227.I sure hope that doesn't get taken out of context.

I need to get some anti-depressants that don't make me drowsy, but I can't really afford a doctor's appointment right now so I'll just... I dunno... cut myself a bit I suppose.

coldangel_1, please don't self mutilate!! You deserve to treat yourself with utmost respect. You are a wonderful person, coldangel_1. For some reason, you are hurting, emotionally and have the need to act out the pain you are suppressing in you day to day life. If you acknowledge that you need the medicine... afford it, it is an acknowledged necessity just like food and gas, er, petrol for your auto. But, also, coldangel_1, will you please Google a support group in your area for Cutters or Self-mutilators? You need to talk through your issues and discover why you desire this destructive form of acting out. the very act of splitting your skin open with a sharp device is literally saying "I hurt; I bleed." and in a very nondirect way you are also trying to tell your body and mind... "I want to heal from this damage I have experienced." edit- if the Google search doesn't reward your query, look in the newspaper or the phone book. Or network with young people your age ask around maybe you'll find something through word of mouth. Just don't let it sit with you; work it out- you deserve a life of contentment just like anybody else. It's your right as an Earthican just like any other living entity with a sentient existence.

Meh. I want to connect with people like I want to be lowered arse-first into a pit full of snakes and rapists. People are cockheads. FYI - I don't know about that self-mutilating shit, but the occassional nick on the forearm or destruction of an inanimate object prevents the two alternatives - beating fuck out of someone who may not fully deserve it, or crying in a decidedly un-manlike manner.Hahha, networking. Thanks anyway. What I need is the name of an antidepressant that doesn't make you sleepy. I might be able to steal it or something. The one I was given a while back had me in bed most of the day, and I was just totally drooged out in waking hours. It's horrible.

Also, you may just need to ask your doctor if your perscribed med is too much and need to dial the dosage back because it's knocking you on your butt!! Ha? Just a thought.

In all seriousness, you don't own a medicare card?? You should. Everyone is entitled to one. It's from the government. That way when you see "Bulk Billing" signs at your GP office you can present your card and wait for the next available doctor. You pay nothing. Check out the medicare website...You dont' pay for any regular consultation.

Cheers Brecky.Ninaka - I've always just paid for things in the past, because I used to be quite well-off and saw no reason not to. Also, I've been to a doctor about... twice in 24 years. Anyhow. I'm fighting the symptom, not the disease... but this is all I can do, so yeah. Thanks.

He infers I'm not a productive member of society.I'm an aged-care and disabilities nurse. I've spent six years in group homes working closely with people who have violent intellectual disabilities helping them to integrate into society. Now I'm doing home care, assisting old war veterans, cancer and AIDS patients. Personal care, the works. I do shit most people wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole. I earn a pittance doing it, but I still go out every day and do it. It's scumfucks like Ben that really depress me. edit: this has gone off on a tangent. I started in this thread because the issue was spending on medical stuff... now it's a rant thread thing.

ben's just being the normal flippant Futurama message writer. you know. Your work is truly an altruistic field of care!! I admire your dedication to what you have decided to do with your life, colangel_1!! Depression can be aggravating, angry, frustrating and feel hopeless. coldangel, persevere through your painful adversity and someday you will get to the other side of your issue and really know what a special person you are in the world.

Shut the hell up and tell about stuff you bought!I bought a yellowfin tuna steak, some crimini and shitake mushrooms, and a bunch of asparagus. They will become a delicious dinner in short order. Also some dry-cure bacon was on sale at the meat/fish counter. [This message has been edited by DrThunder88 (edited 03-26-2008).]

I bought a big bottle of Mucinex at Costco today!! I have just become an ameba of cough and snot and spit for over the last two weeks. I lost my voice on the ninth; then I spent the better part of a week croaking like a frog, er, HYPNoTOAD!! I was snorting and gargling iodized saltwater like crazy and it paid off because now I'm better- but just a little delirious with all this medicine.

In England they do cordial in a glass, fill it with cider up till the half, then top it off with lager. They call it snakebite for a reason. Edit: I can't believe I made retarded spelling mistakes [This message has been edited by Lost Belgian ZombieJesus (edited 03-26-2008).]

I didn't imply that at all, dipshit. But regardless of that, the fact you're a nurse or whatnot really isn't any excuse to jump on a computer and behave like an unstable pratt - going on about cutting yourself, committing random acts of violence and making threats. To do so and still expect us all to coo and coddle your deflated little ego is a bit rich. You don't need therapy or medication. You need to grow the fuck up.
