Withdrawal
You know what’s great about my meds? And by great, I of course mean really annoying. Their half life is so incredibly short that if I forget to take them twice in a row, I start going through withdrawal. Miss a few days, like if I ran out and had to call out of state to get my prescription refilled, well then it’s a whole lot of fun. Imagine if you will, that light headed sensation that hits when you stand up suddenly after lying down for a long time. Now imagine that same sensation coming on every 30-45 seconds. Good times. Oh yeah, and then when I get the script refilled I have go through getting the meds back into my system which means lots of extremely tense muscles, yawning, fidgeting and my personal favorite, lock-jaw. I was only at work for an hour or so yesterday when I decided I should be spending the day on the couch where I can yawn then struggle to relax the muscles in my jaw enough to close my mouth, while fidgeting and stretching constantly in the comfort of my own home. Yep, good times indeed. I’m feeling much better today. In fact, I think I’m going to go geocaching after work today.

you know, my meds do that too. i recently had to go a week without them (while waiting for a 3 month script for germany) and i honestly felt like a recovering heroin addict or something.
