ingredient. Just one yesterday and another one just now. It's meant to
work similar to an SSRI so the effect should take a while to kick in.
I've barely had a "I don't want to exist thought" today. I still don't
want to exist but it's been less present. I woke up early ut I didn't
want to. My mood's a little better though but it wasn't so bad.
Well....it depends how you measure bad really doesn't it?
A friend of mine sent me a link to some coverage of a study on magical
thinking (superstition really rather than what's usually know as magical
thinking). It works apparently. The important factor is belief. It seems
the opposite to the Dunner Kruger effect where self-belief was shown to
not necessarily relate to performance and if t fact there may be an
inverse correlation. I really know very little about psychology but it's
interesting stuff.

The study gave golfers a ball and told them it was lucky. The lucky
balls got putted more but the effect seemed to be based on the golfer's
belief n luck.
My eating problem still isn't better and I haven't showered. But I've
changed my clothes at least. And brushed my teeth. I've off to think and
drunk about the recent cuts. What the fuck? How many people are going to
die needlessly over the next decade?
