I used to live a pretty crazy "party" life but have been really taking it easy the past couple of years, ive realized i have a drug problem, and now other than smoking, ive finished, and i dont even want to do anything else anymore. (it actually scares me) This weekend i poked my head back into some old ways (no drugs other than pot though) and i think i figured out at least one reason why they tell you not to drink on meds...(im on depakote...)
3 of my friends and i went to a concert on friday in philly, right before the show, around 7:00 is when i usually take my meds, i took um, took a sip of water, and continued drinking beer for a couple of hours, much like ive done for years... sometime in the second set someone handed me joint, just like ive done before, next thing i know im being picked up off the floor, carried to the bar, where i went down again, a bouncer picked me up and carried me outside, he gave me bottle of water, took in some fresh air, and i felt fine... i guess im just getting too old for this stuff... the crazy thing is i went down during the "climax" of the second set, i wonder if that had anything to do with it... has all of these circumstances added up to anything any of you experienced similar to that?

I know we don't do Political on this Board...But damn it feels good to know we have a Sane Man in the Presidency and an intelligent Woman in the Vice Presidency, ready to uphold America's Democracy and actually "Lead", not turn it into a Dictatorship or worry about who's in control of the codes that command our Nuclear Missiles! I personally breathed a very, very big sigh of relief today and am...
