Hold Together

[Scene: Mom is making fishcakes from leftover fish...] Mom: "Hmmm. These need something else to hold them together." Beth: [age 15] "Have they tried therapy?" Mom: ... Beth: "Anti-depressants?" Mom: "I was thinking eggs and a little flour." Beth: "I guess that works too."

I am standing on my chair. “It is a bug day” I announce

There is general booing

@onenicebugperday cheers. it’s always bug day for @onenicebugperday

“It IS a bug day” my sister agrees “I found a squashed fly”

I smile. I scream.

I took the not-covered-in-bugs-today pill. And yet. today I am covered in bugs

Finally went to the doctors about my mental health yesterday

Gp decided to prescribe me an antidepressant and to then see her in a month.

I knew there would be side effects, mainly nausea, which isn't pleasant but expected, but for the last 6 hours my teeth have been chattering non-stop and every time I yawn my jaw clenches shut with me unable to open it for a few seconds.

Hopefully in the morning after some sleep the chattering may ease off a bit.
