Because It's Better To Be Irrational With Me Than Rational With Someone Else ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because People Are Stupid, I'm Depressed When I was twelve I went to a neurologist because of a headache I had for over a week. The doctor asked me some standard question and then two not so standard ones: �What makes you annoyed?� �Stupid people.� �All right, what about what makes you sad?� �Stupid people.� He then prescribed me Zoloft. I took that as a hint that I must be extremely depressed because the world is full of stupid people. I never took those pills, instead I went to another doctor. She listened to my symptoms which included hallucinations, headache that lasted for a week, loss of time, double vision... and such. I've got to say the headache bothered me the most; hallucinations not so much... but for a while there I was convinced I had special powers but I was wrong, ha!, the disappointment. She told me I'm not depressed or have anxiety, she told me I was right to ask the other doctor for EEGs and MRIs. Even though it was nine years ago and I went through couple different doctors, from time to time I still have this urge to visit that first doctor and sue him... or at least tell him: "Remember me, asshole? I wasn't depressed! I was dying!"Contrary to the popular belief,I'm actually very happy with my life and although I act like a sarcastic, cynical pessimist, I'm actually very positive, happy, and optimistic.1:08 a.m. - January 20, 2006 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
