SO WHERE WAS KAYLE THIS WHOLE TIME?
9 years ago
Answer: having a major depressive episode that included a bunch of suicidal ideation and mental breakdowns.
BUT, AFTER TAKING CARE OF MYSELF AND INTENSIVE THERAPY I'M FINALLY AT A LEVEL WHERE I AM *FUNCTIONAL* AGAIN.
I got a prescription for Venlafaxine (aka Effexor) and I haven't been on it for long but HOLY SHIT I FEEL GOOD?
Pros: Know what emotions that aren't "I want to die/ anxious/ sad/ nothing/ tired" feel like
Cons: My pupils are huge, cut back on caffeine because too much caffeine can kill me now, I talk a lot and get really excited sometimes
on top of that, I had a scare involving a potential brain tumor and I had to get an MRI for that. I get to discuss the results on Tuesday but judging by the fact that they haven't yelled at me to get back there ASAP I'm assuming that my brain isn't actually full of tumors.
Anyway, I'm getting back into the swing of art and I hope to post more art here soon. I missed being able to draw <3
PS. MY GF STARTED HER TRANSITION NOW AND SHE'S ON 'MONES AND I AM SO HAPPY FOR HER!!!

And HEALTHYYYYY.
Caffeine isn't that good to begin with. Try half and half Lemonade Tea!
I'm actually not so fond of iced tea, I prefer my tea nice and warm!
That being said, I've never had it with lemonade before so I might give that a try because it sounds delicious!
(I've been slowly replacing my intake of caffeine with things like berry herbal teas, water and fruit juice. Not quite the same amount of kick but eh, at least those won't cause my brain to explode.)
