More relaxed.

Hey everyone.
I say everyone as if assuming anyone is actually reading my posts!
Well as I guessed in my last post, I was over the thing with my roommate after a good night's sleep. However, she has yet to actually clean up her mess around here.
I'm sure I'll end up cleaning up for her.
Have a mentioned my roommate is also my younger sister (3 years younger). So I guess my frustration with her sometimes makes more sense!
Ah, siblings..
I think I am starting a flu. Other than that I feel pretty good.
Keep forgetting to take my antidepressants, which is bad. This past summer I didn't take them for several weeks. I ran out of them, missed my appointment to get refills and was just so busy with work that I didn't notice a change in my mood or anything like that.
But let me tell you! NEVER STOP PILLS LIKE THOSE COLD TURKEY.
I had the WORST withdrawal ever. I have personally never done any illegal drugs (haven't even smoked pot), but I felt like I was in withdrawal from cocaine or something.
I was insanely dizzy. I was nauseous all the time. Extremely tired. And the worst part was I would randomly get these blackout moments. I would be walking and all of a sudden I'd have to hold onto something because everything would go blurry then black and I'd have a pounding sensation in the middle of my forehead.
When I finally went to see my doctor again to get more pills, she kind of smirked at me when I told her how bad the withdrawal was. As if she wanted to say "yep, that's what you get for going cold turkey".
So, lesson learned.
Now I will go take my pill for today.
Talk again soon.

Pet-peeve No. 1

Hi again.
Sorry it has been a few days since my last/first post.
It's been a busy week and weekend with school work and family.
I had a wonderful weekend at home with my parents.
Then... I came home to an apartment that smelled disgusting, dishes everywhere and cigarette butts in cups and shot glasses.
To say the least, I was so not impressed with my roommate.
I don't know if it's just me that gets so worked up over things like that, but it really bothers me.
Anyone else out there who finds they get really annoyed/mad over little things like a roommate smoking in your apartment after you have repeatedly asked them not to?
I'm not a smoker, never have been, never will be. I don't mind if others do so. I'm not the type of person to go around telling random people they shouldn't smoke. I mean, to each their own.
BUT... my apartment should be a smoke-free area. Right?
Ugh.
I'll be over it in the morning.
Guess that's all for now folks.
Feel free to comment and leave me your thoughts on pet-peeves like this one.

The beginning of something new.

Hey everyone.

So this is my very first blog.
I really have no idea what I am doing but I figured I would give this a shot.

A little something about me..
I'm a University student in Toronto, Canada.
I have a very loving family.
I am dealing with depression and anxiety and taking medication for it.

I'm hoping that when I need to just get something out, this blog will be helpful.
I sincerely hope that there is at least one person out there that will read my blog and get something from it. I pray I don't end up boring everyone!

First random comment:
I am currently watching 'The Newsroom' while my kitten lays purring beside me.

So, I will leave you all here for the evening.
Please feel free to leave me comments/questions anytime.

Here's to the beginning of something new.
