		<description><![CDATA[CAM stands for “Complementary and Alternative Medicine,” and it is none of the above. CAM is to Health what chewing gum is to Diet. Complementary, as CAM proponents would have us believe, means: “Completing; forming a complement,” or “Combining in such a way as to enhance or emphasize each other&#8217;s qualities.” What they would like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve held that in for a long time. For all the things I’ve said about it, there have been dozens that I haven’t, and I no longer feel obligated to tippy-toe around it. Fuck Alternative Medicine, its proponents, practitioners, and profiteers. I’ve been told that I shouldn’t criticize because it somehow “works”. No, it doesn’t. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am so tired of not sleeping. I’m so tired of seeing information on the internet about fixing sleep problems – it’s so simplistic, and doesn’t apply to me at all. I’m really tired of sleep medications that end up costing me even more sleep than I’ve already lost. I’m trembling all over, feeling woozy, [...]]]></description>

They&#8217;re becoming fewer, and the intensity is diminishing, but the only good thing I can say about this is thank goodness I&#8217;ll be dealing with this for months rather than years. I have nothing bad to say [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been seeing this all over lately (not just from band kids; don&#8217;t get paranoid), people who are quitting something, or someone, and I&#8217;ve been thinking about why people quit and whether or not they should, and what leads to it, and whether they&#8217;re serious when they say they&#8217;re going to quit. . .I&#8217;m not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the past several months, there have been a number of things that have gotten me thinking about roleplaying. Not just the kind you do in games, or on stage, but all the different ways we pretend to be someone other than ourselves, why we do it, and which kinds are OK and which ones [...]]]></description>

I didn&#8217;t realize how much the crap with Smart Carpet was stressing me out. I still have a bit left to go, because they pulled up the laminate floors and laid the carpet, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pharyngula had a post about ADD that led inevitably to commentors decrying ADD as an imaginary condition, overdiagnosed, unnecessarily medicated, etc. Of course, it got me riled, as someone who has it, and had trouble getting diagnosis and medication, and can now see a significant positive difference. My comment was long, people might not read [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night, I tried sleeping without ativan. I wouldn&#8217;t say it was a complete failure, but it could have been better. However, when I got out of bed, I anticipated how good the day was going to be, and was in a great mood regardless of my lack of sleep. The Adderal started kicking in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So. . .here&#8217;s the update. Late Friday, after I&#8217;d had a really good, productive, satisfying day, the Adderal started to wear off. It was gradual, but there was no question in my mind that I could feel the change creeping up on me, and it made me very melancholic. I tried to put my finger [...]]]></description>
