Self Medication
This Thursday I received a lovely note from my friend, BipolarLawyerCook, who wished me a good Thanksgiving, no matter what substances I had to take in order to get through it.
Well, this has been a rough month. I've had stomach and other related illnesses, I've had to change my antidepressant because it wasn't working anymore, and, of course, I ended my relationship and moved back to my old house--largely by myself. So, when I think about self medicating, I'm serious. On Wednesday, I decided it was either heroin or this:
This is Bess.
Bess is four months old and almost 14 pounds. The folks at the humane society thought she was a 10 week old Lab, but she is not. She has tiny ears, a short nose, and a tail that curls up. She is also quite small. I am not at all sure what she is, except darling. Any thoughts?

Bess will give you unconditional love, lots of puddles to start with, she'll lick your face and hands just because, know when you're sad and demand nothing more than food and walks from you.
Having gone through a separation myself recently, I know where you're at and I can tell you that the first month is the worst.
It does get better...
I hope you have a blessed day.
self medication is not a good Idea. even though I'm heading that way myself.
Hope you are enjoying the new addition.
I hope she brings hope and happiness to your days and nights.
Best wishes for both of you....
Much love to you.
Good on you Professor J.
PS -- there's a cute cartoon on my blog that might make you laugh, too.
love, Kim
I hope you have a good support group.
I suggest a warm blanket, a pull toy, and ten pounds of kibble.
What a doll. I likes them kind of mood enhancers. :-)
Do it yourself DNA tests for pets are widely available and inexpensive. Check on line or with your vet. You'll be amazed at the results!

Do you have a blog?
Oh sorry, puppies and babies do that to me. She's wonderful!
I'm so sorry about your relationship ending. I missed that somehow until now. Sending big hugs your way.
I hope you are feeling better - stomach illness wise.
