Mine were red, white and blue I think. I was great on my rollerboots. My grandparents used to call me 'the roller-skating waitress' when I was little, as I would skate around their house delivering food to my great-grandparents. :embarrassedlol:

the greatest time of my life was when I first took anti-depressants. It was like I could finally understand why people bothered to do things. But after a while that faded out, and they did little else than make the come downs off other drugs a bit softer.
But I'm guessing this isn't your first time, eh ralph?

Thank you for posting that Hair Montage again, Mart. It still makes me laugh.

It cracks me up as well. I really do see each poster in those photos. The cruel stare of Kovacs, the slightly haughty pose of Octavia, the edgy, scruffbag look of Damo, the trendy 80s Scrawny do, they all fit. Sort of.

They do all fit, especially the male posters. Benway, Fionnulla and Raz are my favourites.

I was about to be minorly offended by this, but I then I looked at all the others and realised that no-one gets to win.

I hope it's not like yesterday. It felt similar to how you feel about fifteen minutes before a hit of acid kicks in.
ralph, back in my uni days, I was asked to have therapy and take a course of pills or be kicked out - long story - so took the pills, but never actually took the pills. Until one day, just hours before myself and my friend were due to broadcast our radio show, we both took three prozac each.
The show was a weird mix of up-beat enthusiasm, and fear.

That describes what I'm feeling perfectly.
There was a great documentary on here last month, called The Trap (three part). One section was talking about how drug firms really pushed the idea of cataloguing human emotions such as apprehension and anxiety, in order to offer new wonder drugs to "cure" them. Prozac was mentioned a lot. In one archieve clip, a husband and wife were on a talk show. She (the taker) waxing lyrical. He saying that his wife was someone new, someone that he didn't know. It made me think of Body Snatchers.
Sorry, ralph. I'm not trying to scare you - it just reminded me of that.
I hope all goes well for you...

But hey, give the counselling a go - just be honest with yourself. When I first did it (being "forced" to do it) I resented every question and just wanted to get out of it. The next time, I got a lot out of it.
Happy Easter!!!!> ajrhfaihbe"LBg|WE

This made me think of my gran. Her and granddad were unhappily married. It's a family leg-end that every now and again she's go slightly mental and have to go in for that electric shock therapy. She'd come out all different and after she got her memory back she'd be all calm and accepting. He liked it but my mum always reckoned him giving up the other women would've worked as well.

I have never took anti-depressants. They have strange side effects which I suppose would make you depressed again. By the way it seems quite quiet on here now that it is bankholiday weekend.
quote:Originally posted by ralph: Hmmm. I think that's what kept me from trying them up until now. I like not being "normal". And I'm going to miss my dark thoughts.
How dark are dark thoughts? I mean are we talking about a constant dwelling on how great it would feel to sever the head of one of your sons and parade round Massachussets with your erection wedged into the head's windpipe, banging your chest and shouting "I am two-headed ralph! I am king of Masschussets!"? Or are we just talking about how sometimes you get the shopping in and you buy extra spicy Doritos because you know your wife won't eat them, which means you get to have twice as many, and when you do this you laugh all the way home?
Essentially, what counts as a dark thought? And if you're going to miss them, what stops you from thinking them anyway, by using your imagination?
