> I didn't take any Klonopin this morning. I took a little Neurontin instead, even though it don't do squat for me. I've been sleeping through the night for the last few nights, and the intense dreams I got from discontinuing desipramine have faded. By rights I should be able to start Marplan tomorrow, but my pdoc says I have to wait until Friday. (Who's the nut here?) It'll be a 1/2 dose, at that.

>Good luck on the Marlplan. I don't think I'm too far behing you on that one. desimpramine and amityiptaline made me psychotic. Fun.

> My son's cat is on my lap. Inside his fuzzy gray exterior beats the heart of a thug. He's soft, warm, and purring, and sinks his teeth into me when the mood strikes him. He also intimidates the other cat to the point where she won't use the litter box. He is the last stray I ever take in.

Cats are funny that way. I love them, but you never actually own the cat. They own you.> Hoping we all function today.
