Hi, I hate glitter and my name is not Lance. I do cross stitching and play the occasional video game. I also like books, cross stitching has enabled me to listen to audio books. I like sci-fi and adventure/mystery but I read romance novels too from time to time.

Binding of Isaac Repentance is my main game at the moment. I'm also trying to squeeze some Need for Speed Underground 2 on the PS2. Gaming is no longer my primary hobby so it's no more than an hour or two per day. Still, looking forward to the other NFS titles on the PS2. I might try to finish the first Underground and go for 100% on both before moving on.

"only (es)citalopram" withdrawal made me feel like I have a 9 volt in my brain zapping me every time I move my eyes. And that was during controlled tapering. It took me 6 months proper for them to go away. Now on my third month of tapering Trazodone which worked well for me with very little side effects but I feel ready to face the world with as little medication as possible. Funny thing, Trazodone doesn't give the brain zaps but the withdrawal headaches rival migraines. Going from 150mg to 75 was a piece of cake. Going from 75 to 50 made me question if I should really do this. Now alternating between 25 and 12.5 every other day, things are looking much better.

I also have a cabinet full of different antipsychotics and antidepressants. These lil buggers saved my life in more ways than one. Bipolar sucks but I'm glad to be in remission for now!
