ugh. I took my first ever benzodiazepine this afternoon. First I felt a little happy (like 2 minutes worth) then I felt kind of drunk (1 hour) then I felt kind of slow. now I feel kind of sad :( Mostly, I just feel sedated. Yawn. I can't even imagine what tomorrow's gonna be like with seroquel up and the benzodiazepine. f*ck. and I haven't finished my homework yet either.
on the bright side, I will be saving money, as I will not be buying any more alcohol for a while. lucky me...
*yawn*
