I'm glad you enjoyed it!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09248039895309440085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886083500566528444.post-83350281178547416352013-04-03T20:40:53.556-04:002013-04-03T20:40:53.556-04:00Finally got a chance to stop by from studio30+ and...Finally got a chance to stop by from studio30+ and really appreciated your attitude and even the follow up. 'What excuse will I have for being a thoroughly dark, mean person then?' resonated with me.

I say cautiously, because the weaning can be rough, and because who knows what will pop up again in the months to come. Still - it's nothing like 2011, so far!<br /><br />And somehow, I'm still me! And I guess it's just as well; Zooey's husband isn't her husband anymore, and [Maris] wasn't too keen on that idea, anyway. :)Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09248039895309440085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886083500566528444.post-52113805650038125182013-03-29T08:42:46.870-04:002013-03-29T08:42:46.870-04:00Joe, I think you have a wonderful attitude here. A...Joe, I think you have a wonderful attitude here. And based on your follow-up, I'd have to say that these kinds of relapses are very common and it's necessary to treat yourself with kindness along this journey. Those drugs tend to do a number on our system (I've been on anxiety meds for almost a year now and can't wait to get off the stuff) but you know, you have to take it as it comes and not beat yourself too much over it. <br /><br />And while I think a drunk David Hasselhoff is always good for a laugh, you are just fine the way you are :) <br /><br />Stopping in from S3P today and so happy I had the chance to read your words. mypixiebloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09135461083810124483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886083500566528444.post-47196348926488066802012-10-06T23:05:59.522-04:002012-10-06T23:05:59.522-04:00UPDATE: I thought I was doing great, and I still ...UPDATE: I thought I was doing great, and I still *feel* pretty good, but less than a year later (May 2012), I was back on the stuff. It was a smaller dose, and we're already stepping that down month by month, so it hasn't been that bad. <br /><br />So - it's disappointing, but it could be so much worse! <br />Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09248039895309440085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886083500566528444.post-35183433284817466232012-10-05T18:45:12.480-04:002012-10-05T18:45:12.480-04:00I am curios, since this has been reposted, how did...I am curios, since this has been reposted, how did you fare?

Y...Sounds like you have got the right attitude Joe.<br />You are a survivor in spite of your protestations. You have a great wit and a wonderful sense of humour, both of which are live savers. I have long enjoyed your brilliant posts on Facebook and long may you continue to educate and amuse your followers. I wish you a long and happy new life. <br />Mike.Mikehattanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10465379350527932852noreply@blogger.com
