Full disclosure: I had to quit my meds earlier this week because of side effects (tachycardia).

So I am raw dogging my emotions right now, and to put it simply: I am just so damned angry. I genuinely want to break everything around me; except… I can’t. I can’t do a goddamned thing because … responsibilities.

I feel so overwhelmed by everything, and I have absolutely no one to turn to; no one who will listen. I have no friends, and aside of my children, I have no family. My dog doesn’t even want to be around me when I’m sad or upset.

How the fuck do people do this?

My doc told me to stop taking the meds. I’m waiting on him to review my ekg that he also said I get.

You should probably be on a Holter monitor or whatever they call them now, if your heart is acting weird. But again, up to the Dr.
