Not many, I was going full time. I am pretty pumped about it also. I plan to email the school and see if I can possibly start this summer semester. That's awesome you are going back too. Good luck, wish the best for your choice

I spent all week getting up the courage to go to the pharmacy and they didn’t have my goddamn lexapro

Goddamnit I don’t want to go off kilter again

I called... “leave a message”

F U C K!!!

This is definitely a great way to go, and I think a lot of people that didn't otherwise finish college would be able to if they took this route

There's such a weird social pressure to finish in 4 years, like it's what the "successful" people do. I managed to do it in 4.5 years, I had to take some summer courses to bring my grade up in courses I failed. But when I got out of college it felt like all of that stress and effort to finish in 4 was ****ing pointless because I had no idea what to do next, so I just became a waiter and messed around for a few years before finding the right path for me

Good luck in whatever you decide to do next Mindful, the fact that you've gotten this far is a great achievement already so keep your head up

It’s because the lexapro makes me want to see something work

I don’t want to stay in my black hole of brutal pessimism

That **** is ****ing painful

I can still oppose capitalism in general without being constantly borderline homicidal about **** I can’t even change

[Marie Monday]

true. That's ****ty that they didn't have your lexapro man, keep trying. How long before you run out?

Monday

I don’t think it’s the end of the world to miss a day or even a few days but it can probably get done on Monday

I have a good relationship with the head pharmacist I’ve known her for years and I’m sure she would’ve called on the spot but she wasn’t working and it was just this kid

Since lexapro isn’t recreational at all I really think they’ve coulda called the clinic right on the spot

But I didn’t push it because I have gone bonkers in those situations in the past

That’s not really why I just didn’t feel inclined to push it

I did say “this is actually really frustrating” but I left it at that

I was polite

[Marie Monday]

yeah I remember you telling about a scene when they wouldn't give you your medicine. I can understand that though. But it sounds like it'll be fine, that's good

Yeah I really lost my cool.

They were way bigger *******s though

This was just an honest mistake

But I still don’t want to lose my cool like that in the future. You can get arrested. They had real fear on their faces and I’m not saying that to brag. I don’t want to be like that. It’s ****ing exhausting for one thing.

And then I get home a fantasize about ****ing then up and ****. Nah. I can’t go back to that.

[Marie Monday]

yeah they didn't want to give it to you for some ****ty petty reason right? But I agree, it's probably wiser just to not go there, that kind of anger is not a good place.
