It seems unnecessary and self-indulgent to enumerate my medication profile, but these chemicals are essential to my coping. <br />
<br />
1. 50mg Vyvanse and 40 mg Adderall daily (Amphetamines).<br />
2. Enormous quantities of coffee.<br />
3. 2.5mg Abilify (Atypical antipsycotic).<br />
4. 300mg Lamictal (Mood stabilizer).<br />
5. Marijuana (1-5 times daily).<br />
<br />
These are instruments.Disbearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01881000876846285265noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5084057914853703272.post-71026127743757273482011-02-20T04:44:00.000-08:002011-02-20T04:47:49.647-08:00IntroductionI'm treating this blog as a personal experiment in which I allow myself to freely craft a representation of my personality in order to indulge a common desire to frame my life within a cohesive self-narrative. This blog principally serves as a hobby, a type of action that I typically find difficult to impliment when structuring my life. I consider this blog to represent on three levels: it is a personal project, cultivating of a customary mode of coping (a recreational hobby); it is a process of self-definition, in which I selectively consolidate and analyze information about my life, thus betraying habits of justification and presentation; and finally it is a self-portrait, the outcome of this process, which will exist in a dichotomy with the dynamic portait of the writer that underlies its creation.Disbearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01881000876846285265noreply@blogger.com0
