Binge drinking — long-term aftereffects worse with start at younger ages

A new study shows that binge drinking affects ability to relearn tasks that have to be adjusted; what’s more, it shows that this difficulty, as well as long-term loss of impulse control and related issues, is worse for people who start binging at a younger age.

I AM HUMAN, HEAR ME FEEL

A feeling human,
No emotional cripple;
How could I be that?

If I really were
I couldn’t feel so anxious
Of lacking feeling.

Expressions crippled?
Perhaps; I’ll not deny it.
But feelings still whole.

Yes, my mind emotes;
I am human hear me feel.
I need to believe.

Believe I deserve
To feel the love and anger
And everything else.

Anxiety calls

For the first time in a while, and the first time since moving back to Dallas, I felt like throwing up from anxiety this morning. And, although I did not feel that tired, I definitely did not feel like getting out of bed this morning. I do wonder if I tapered back too much on antidepressants.

I have a couple of emotional issues on my plate, no, ONE emotional issue on my plate, that I'm not dealing with well right now, either.
