Still thinking of you :)

You gave me a gift, friend. You probably didn't even know it.

I've been on risperidone for over 2 years. It's given for schizophrenia, which I don't have, but is also used as an antipsychotic. One of the things it does to me is that it makes it impossible to cry. So when things hurt really bad, I break out into hysterical laughter instead of crying. It's really embarrassing and difficult to explain to people who are outside my immediate circle. My world has grown very small.

But then you came along. You shared your life, your worries, your triumphs, your kitty and your journey. When it was over here I missed you very much. I cried. I actually cried for at least 10 solid minutes. It felt good to cry even though I was very sad. Thank you, Gayle. Thank you for helping feel normal.
