i actually moved to berkeley from new york myself. very different life, i'm finding.
i guess the marijuana is something like self-medication to replace the effexor, lamictal, abilify, and othro-tricyclen that i've stopped taking all within the last 6 months.it's hard to be sane in an insane world
[or something equally cliched]
> I know you don't want to hear this ... but seriously, you might try giving the marijuana a rest. I have a friend (in Berkeley also!) who suffers from extreme depression ... who isn't getting any better despite taking Celexa, which worked for her for awhile, and now something else ... and happens to smoke pot two or three times a day. I was living near Berkeley for almost two years before two weeks ago when I moved back to New York, so I know the culture there. I've smoked a bit of weed myself -- but all it does for me is zap my memory and cognitive skills for about a week.
