Everything is still fantastic

I am now in week 4/5 of the Effexor decrease. I have not had any new problems arise due to withdrawal, which is great. My psychiatrist seems to think that this means that I won't suffer from any of the nasty symptoms that I wrote about in my last blog and that I should be able to remain (prescription) drug free.

I have spent most of my time this last month reading. For those of you whom are interested in spirituality and self-discovery, the Brazilian author Paulo Coelho is amazing. I would recommend starting with The Alchemist. I have not (sigh) read the new Harry Potter book yet because I am waiting until I am earning money substitute teaching before I make any more purchases.

Also, thanks to my loving parents, I have the pleasure of spending 1.5 to 2 hours each day in our garden. I love the vegetables, but not the work. If anybody wants to see pictures (of the garden, not me working in it), then follow the link to my Sony pictures website and look at the Flora and Fauna album.

That's all for now,
Sara
