Enjoy my terror then relief you monsters!

Take care man, been taking new medication as well. Drowsiness and laziness aside, it is helping me feel better.

[@arronjameshook]

I know what you’re going through. My current medication doesn’t make me drowsy, but it does give me some funny dreams. Waking up after dreaming about being driven across a river in a Willis Jeep by an orangutan whilst being sworn at by enraged fisherman whose catch has just been scared off is interesting to say the least.

Write "not a bomb" on your package, don't get your package checked. Send package from a European country, get all the checks because there's no way that's not a bomb.

They made very drowsy and for about a week I wasn’t able to do anything so I know what you’re going through with your medication change. I’m so glad you’re getting help and hopefully you’re gonna feel a lot better after the side effects wear off. Sending you loads of love and well wishes
