Dear Trish's Secret Stalker - I'm wearing that shirt you included for me right now. I accidentally ate three of the four chocolate buckeyes. - crash davis Dec 1, 08:45 3
- You know she has the physical means to keep score now, right? - CovingtonCat Dec 1, 08:49 2
  - Yep. And those bourbon balls were a smash hit with her. I didn't know that was such a KY thing. She raved on and on about them. - crash davis Dec 1, 08:53 1
    - I first had them when I toured the Woodford distillery. They're addicting. -- nm - CovingtonCat Dec 1, 09:01
I swear looking for work is more work than actually working -- nm - Capstern Dec 1, 08:43 1

It's too bad I'm not an author ... I got two story ideas from an episode of Ice Pilots last night. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 1, 08:36 3
- I used to fly with those guys. they're kind of idiots. -- nm - mafic Dec 1, 09:02
- Story idea one: something about an ice pilot. Story idea two: BC tech nerd leaves his wife for a tranny. nm - Dignan Dec 1, 08:47 1
  - Actually, one was about zombies and one was about global warming - both were government conspiracies. - Beryllium Dec 1, 08:52
All those Google tips on B2 are great, but old school. An undocumented Google modifier is the term "around". - Mop (198 lbs) Dec 1, 08:34
So we all know how inefficient govt bureaucracy can be. Let me reinforce that thought. (lyc) - CovingtonCat Dec 1, 08:32

  - I haven't talked about it much here, but my wife is prone to some pretty serious bouts of depression. It's very difficult to live with at times. - pmb Dec 1, 08:32 10
    - I'm sure it's frustrating to effectively like lose your wife for days at a time. does she medicate, can I ask? my friend lisa had - amanda Dec 1, 08:41 5
      - She does medicate (as I described below). I'm not sure how much it helps. - pmb Dec 1, 08:55 3
        
        (god I so feel for you because it's so hard not to sound unsupportive when you suggest other things, you know?) -- nm - amanda Dec 1, 09:05 2

      - if not, there is also a curve for finding the right fit. I took Lexapro first and slept for 2 days. - groiny Dec 1, 08:43
    - is she taking any medications for it? nm -- nm - groiny Dec 1, 08:39 3
      - Yes. But I think they basically help her not fall into the depression as often, but don't do that much when it happens anyway. -- nm - pmb Dec 1, 08:52 2
        
        maybe they should up the dosage at those times? nm -- nm - groiny Dec 1, 08:53 1
        
        They generally don't last so long that you could make those kinds of adjustments. -- nm - pmb Dec 1, 08:56

        I can see that - znufrii Dec 1, 08:56
        
        There's a link between depression and anxiety for sure. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:28
    - For people who are prone to depression, many different things can bring it on and depression it not necessarily logical. - ty97 Dec 1, 08:23 18
      - also, the "I don't have a boyfriend" depression could be a chicken/egg thing. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:24

        If it's actually depression, in the clinical sense, then I don't see what you'd get upset about it -- nm - ty97 Dec 1, 08:26 11

        I don't think you have any clue how depression works. -- nm - ty97 Dec 1, 08:38 9

        The first thing to accept is that depression (actual, real depression) is not a choice. - ty97 Dec 1, 08:58 6
        
        [deleted]
        
        right, and it's not a guaranteed or quick fix. For instance I had a close friend who fought it for over a decade. NOTHING worked. You can't imagine - loosilu Dec 1, 09:03
        
        [deleted] 3
        
        I think so many of our social issues are like that. just change the situation and the person changes. like how I kicked my rage issues. - amanda Dec 1, 09:10
        
        I struggle with that same feeling, but one thing to remember is that the depression itself can make doing those things much, much harder for that - pmb Dec 1, 09:05 1
        
        [deleted]
        
        this, completely. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:38
      - This, very much. I have had several periods of severe depression that were brought on by nothing. It's not always "about" something. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:23 3
        
        I found this take on the subject rather illuminating. -- (link) - znufrii Dec 1, 08:30 2
        
        This has been my experience. Just feeling horrible, and no reason for it. Therefore no way to fix it. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:40 1
        
        When I first started medicating, it was a shock to discover that I was upset only when there was a reason for it. -- nm - loosilu Dec 1, 08:44
