I want to thank everyone who has sent me positive messages over the last while. you've all be wonderfully supportive and it's been incredibly helpful.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
I quit my job today. I've tried to quit before in the past and always got talked down, but this time I was able to stay resolute.
Cambrian House is a great place to with a great philosophy and a great concept, but I think I pushed myself too hard too fast. I learned a lot there, including my own personal limits.
I've decided to start on my way to recovery. I have to own this now. And I have a fantastic group of people around me who support and love me unconditionally.
With that being said, my family staged an intervention for me last night. Which is partially why I quit my job today. It's a really high pressure environment and I think I was too ambitious. They're trying to take care of me. I'm on Effexor, and hopefully it won't be too long. The side effects scare me some, but hopefully I can get through more or less unscathed.
My mother doesn't understand what's going on and how to fix it. She's got me taking a lot of Xango (mangosteen drink) that I'm convinced she thinks is cure-all. She's 63 and I love her to death, so I drink the fruit puree so she doesn't cry so much at night. Oh, and she bought me a VitaMix. It just a 500 dollar blender.
I'm leaving for the Philippines on Wednesday. Going to sit out on the beach, get some sun and get some rest. I'm going to recover and remember why life is so good.
What I do when I come back will be an intersting journey. I'll definately keep you posted.
BTW: Gears of War for the 360 is fucking awesome.

I was put on Effexor for a while. They also gave me a prescription for Ambian since sleeplessness is a common side effect
