hello Beehaw, it's a sleepy morning--and i did not get very much sleep. luckily i have no social priorities so this is not a big deal. currently reading a number of books after completely crashing out of doing that for the entire month of June. i think i can get about 3 in before the end of the month, we'll see

Eh kinda shitty, one of my main medications (Subutex) dropped dosage again this week and it suddenly felt like I've been hit with a brick, emotionally speaking at least, bored as hell, tired, no real desire to eat or do anything, etc. I'm close to being done with this medication but the last parts like getting off it at the very end are the hardest.

How are you doing overall? Are you doing well? I don't mean to assume the reason for using Subutex (doctors prescribe off-label for lots of shit and I'm not a doctor) but it's one of those things where I've had someone close going through similar circumstances.

Doing OK in general except for the start of this week, no problem with assuming, you're likely right anyway if you're thinking about opiate addiction. Cravings suck but are bareable for now at least.

I'm glad to hear it, well not glad you have to go through this but glad to hear to you're doing okay. I hope you don't have too hard of a time and are able to stick with it.
