Yes, Sertraline. Also know as Lustral. I hope they don’t make me put on weight. I hope they make me better.

There is an older post titled ‘Corporate Bollocks’ that describes in full the horror I have to endure on 10th July. And now I learn it may involve role play, after my boss told me there wouldn’t be any of that nonsense. Trust no one.

I won’t go into details with the stomach bug thing. All I will say is that in order to rid myself of it I had to drink Pepto Bismol, which is a disconcerting pink colour, and smells an awful lot like antiseptic. Tastes BAD. If you don’t heave after drinking it, it does work. I am on the road to recovery.

Going back to the role play thing. We’re not talking bedroom antics here, we’re talking 12 strangers in a small room. We’re talking embarrassment, we’re talking offices and suits and having to vocalize shite while, I might add, I’m trying to adjust to new medication, which is not easy, as any fellow junkies will know. Antidepressants take a while to work. A few weeks. If they work at all. I sat in a meeting today and I literally couldn’t bring myself to say anything. I was mute. I was a husk. To role playing, I say fuck off.

None of that matters really, when you think of what else is going on in the world. But knowing that doesn’t really help does it?
