although i'm an avid reader of your eLJay & love your m15 stuff, i don't usually comment...
just wanted to say though, that i like the way you think about things. your willingness to look issues in the eye and analyze them, things that most people seem to go to great lengths to avoid... and eloquently, at that, is very admirable.
also, as a psych student, whenever you share your thoughts about depression, bipolar...ity (hehe) or medication, it gives me a an interesting way of looking at things and another way to approach things i'm learning about. it's sometimes hard to get into a subject that involves to much "dry" research, being able to correlate information with "real" evidence (the same kind that my professors call "anecdotal") really helps to gain a more comprehensive understanding.
so thanks for being brave enough to really look things in the eye, and for sharing it with us here. and seeing as how this has been the kind of week where i may just up'n go nuclear if i encounter one more person who can't just come out and say what they really effing mean... it's very refreshing.
best of luck in finding a better balance of things that works well for you.
