Of course I know it, and have known it for some time - but sometimes knowing it is simply not enough. It takes me by surprise, regardless of how well prepared I think I am. I refer, of course, to tablets, and their effect on me.
The tablets in question are antibiotics, and I know they make me feel down and depressed. It happens every time I take them and I know that it is going to happen. Yet, with alarming regularity, I watch myself slip down the path of depression and have no idea what has caused it. Then, when I am well and truly down in the dumps, it hits me.
I feel so foolish, to continue being suckered in. This time, I am on some new medication as well which also has the same effect. So, for a while at least, I have to be down in the dumps artificially, and only when this period of extra tabulation is over will I know exactly how I really feel.
Here endeth the lesson I need to learn.
Obviously no-one else has the guts to leave a comment on this subject, for fear of tipping you over the edge of the abyss. I personally hope you enjoy all the pills, and take full advantage of the mind-bending highs they enduce, before you pass out in a pool of your own rainbow coloured lungfroth. I mean that in a loving way, bless you gently.
