Daniel became a fan of Whiffie Fried Pies on facebook. I did the same and commented that I was craving a whiffie, but I should really get to bed at a decent hour for once. And so ate half a serving of Coconut Bliss to assuage said craving for sweets when Daniel texted me saying if I met him at the carts he'd treat me.

So I took off (fuck a normal sleep schedule) and ate a lemon whiffie. And then had a can of ginger ale 'cause I was thirsty.

And now I feel all queasy and stuff, because I had a carb-tastic too-big bowl of pasta for dinner, and then followed it up with a shit-ton of sugar.

In other news: as of whenever I get a new debit card, I'm back on Wellbutrin. Well, "back on" might not be the most appropriate phrase, as I last took it several years ago.

To make a long story short: I'm having too much trouble leaving the house or doing anything, really. I haven't taken any steps towards getting a temp job or going back to school because of inertia and fear. I sleep too much and eat too many carbs and don't ride my bike enough. I'm irritable and moody as hell towards Shawn and cry on him for no discernible reason. I'm not enjoying very many things.

So, yeah, I'm going to start taking Wellbutrin again. The XL version has gone generic, but it's still pricey. I gotta call around.

The twice a day version that I take run around $75 a month at costco.

Wellbutrin has been the only thing keeping me from having a major breakdown this year. :)

man. Now I want a Whiffie, and I have no business eating a whiffie.

I eat like an asshole.

Are you going to Flaming Lips tonight? I think Daks and I are going to get a slice at Rocco's before going over to Lola's room, if you're interested.

Best of luck, sweetie. I know that carb-depression cycle only too well.

If you can, enlist people to help you back off the simple carbs. Try to trick yourself into pretending that they're allergens to your roommates or something. I know it's kind of impossible feeling in that state, but if you can get the ball rolling and ride out a few days of detox, it should start getting better.

Eating a fuck-ton of protein instead sometimes helps me. Like ODing on tofu, seitan, nuts, etc.

And Kale. I just eat kale like it's going out of business.

Good luck 'pril! You will be better soon; I have confidence! And don't mind crying on your boyfriend. It's what boyfriends are for ;)
