Its been 10 years and 8 days since a girl I had a crush on died. Sometimes I still have mental images of her face flashing in my mind... after all she was a girl who rejected me, and broke my heart :-/

Basically she killed herself  :(

That's awful. Were you friends with her?

Yeh, that was my observation...how many people believe all of that above. I just saw someone regurgitate it to someone else.

Whilst she isn't to my knowledge dead, or come to harm, I know what its like to lose a loved one. I still see my ex fiancee's cute, round face and infectious grin and hear her bubbly, lively, vivaceous voice in  my head all the time. I haven't seen her in maybe 12 years or so and miss her like I'd miss an arm if I lost one tomorrow.

People say things like that get better with time, etc. etc.

They don't always, and I am as sure as I can be that this girl, is someone I won't ever 'just get over'. Other people I have before but she was special in every way.

More like mere acquaintances that talked back and forth :-/

American Health Care seems to be nothing but for profit these days, a capitalistic entity that makes money out of the suffering of others as well as jacking up the prices of EpiPens, Abilify, Diabetic Test Strips, and the supposed "Trumpcare".

-_- Sorry I'm just a bit pissed off right now.

  FWIW, there are affordable generic EpiPens available, or so I recently heard.  :crossed:

Abilify is expensive here too, so expensive that I can't go on it. It sounds like it would be the ideal med for me as well. :(

Zonegran for The PR is about $2000 a month.  Paid for completely from Medicare and Medicare/Extra Help.

  I'm shocked.  I just submitted my out-of-pocket medical expenses for reimbursement through a program
   at work.  I spent a little over $700 on meds last year.  Insurance paid the rest ... over $10,000.  Wow.  :-\

Our insurance went from an HMO with just 5 or 10 dollar copays on Rx's to a high deductible plan and it was a shock how much meds cost.

I was on free samples of it until my psychiatrist said it was okay to wean off of it. I tried weaning off of it by myself, and all it ever did me was make me miserable, and blame my sister for everything wrong with me.... Of course the worst side affect was when I was at the Cubs game seeing my team lose by a whole lot. I was literally crying... That Davis guy who was the starting pitcher that game just plain sucked! His ERA was a 7.71!

  Also, I've had a recurring twitch of my own, in the left cheek, not the right.  :twitch:
