i do love a half and half. if anyone is ever in philly, go to moriarty's
or the vous. there is a chance you will find me...

dear god light beer is awful.

i could really go for a guinness or 2 or 6 right now...

sexually active, stoner band-geek

damn. some mother****er put holes in me.

haha. that's a fun mistake. go to your account page (my account) then
click the "profile" link. on that screen there will be a button that
says "edit profile"

hey kids, i disappeared for a while. busy busy. i had an appointment
with my shrink last month, and, unless something crazy happens, i get to
start tapering off my meds in october!

just do your research. being vegan or vegetarian is a lot easier than
most non-vegetarians think it is. as they do with protein, most
westerners consume a great deal more B12 than is actually necessary in
your daily diet. we (i'm vegetarian, but i like cheese too much to be
vegan) are much more aware of what we put in our bodies.

i played clarinet for 9 years. i'm a jazz bass major at an art school in
philadelphia. if you have the time, you should try to find a private
teacher to get lessons from. otherwise, try youtube or
expertvillage.com.

exercise works, too. pick up big heavy things, throw ****, run around in
circles, ride a bike. anything that will get your adrenaline going and
wear you out. just don't hurt yourself.

isaac suddenly has a really big smile on his face...

it sounds like all you really want is for one of us to assure you that
it's ok to trust yourself. so do it. you know how you feel, you know
what you want, and you know what you need. good luck!

you forgot the most important thing (at least for a college student):
bananas are cheap as ****!!!

that's what we're here for. remember in cartoons when firemen would
stretch out that clothy trampoliney thing and catch people when they
jumped out the window? that's us.

well however you end up doing it, i hope you find a healthy way to deal
with your stress.

jeff - find some place where you won't bother anybody, and flip ****.
scream, jump up and down, punch something (somthing soft...), throw
things......you have a lot of feelings that need to come out or you'll
explode. when i still lived at home, i would wait until everyone was
gone, and then i would turn on some mudvayne or norma jean really loud
and jump around and scream along until i could barely stand. it felt
amazing.

haha, i just got back from church...

jeff - even if you aren't religious, you might want to go visit a church
in your area. a clergyman isn't a doctor, but they still offer counsel.
he will listen to you, offer advice, try to help you find assistance,
etc, and he will do it for free. if you are comfortable with allowing
him to share your story with his church, people there will likely be
willing to also help you in any way they can. try to find a church with
a strong outreach program; they often advertise such things in their
weekly bulletins, or on websites if they happen to have one. if you are
nervous about people being too pushy, look for a non-denominational
church. they are usually more laidback. and as we are always saying, we
are all here when you need to talk. you have a way of emailing any one
of us from this forum, so take advantage of that. take care.
