what little of it I had
I hate people, not you guys, but A LOT of other people
I really think I should go on disability due to my inability to deal with people
my diagnosis should be "people suck-leave me alone, not otherwise specified"
what f*ck*ng med can they give me for that one?
whatever man, it'll all be my fault anyway
when people keep sucking despite my taking it
I've had it, really

No sid, you've not lost you mind. A lot of people feel the way you do. I'm one of them.
I wonder how I manage to fake it some days. Other days I just have no tolerance. Everyone in therapy says that I have to get over that and feel more compassion toward others. That I need learn to accept people more.
Why can't the people learn to accept that I just don't like them? They seem so much more bubbly than me anyway; shouldn't it be easier for them to adapt to us?
and as for the med, it's called Fuqitol.

One of my favorite quotes is from Peanuts (Linus).
"I love mankind. It's people I can't stand."
Are people giving you any particular reason to dislike them more than usual lately?
(I'm feeling a wee bit stressed at work and am considering changing my standard snarl of "Don't touch me! I don't like to be touched!" to "Don't try to contact me! I don't like to be bothered!")

[Yes, everyone (pardonable exaggeration) feels like this which is why they go out and have heaps of fun with their friends taking illegal drugs/drink to make them like each other while they do it.
It sounds like such a good idea.
Why can't I do that?
I'm too old.]Sid, are your meds working (at all) well?
How much are we entitled to expect?
Would we be worse off without them?
And especially, can you get disability?
Is that any good?The usual questions.

I've upped the lamictal...I think it's caused a bunch of agitation
> How much are we entitled to expect?I haven't a clue
> Would we be worse off without them?
maybe not
> And especially, can you get disability?
nope, I'd have to be worse off, and no I don't think it'd be that great

perfect quote
> Are people giving you any particular reason to dislike them more than usual lately?yes, I'm not genuflecting enough, in fact I'm downright obstinate and oppositional
I don't think I'm "wrong" about it at all, but I've got to manage despite people
I keep having fantasies about how I can tell people off without them really realizing it>
> (I'm feeling a wee bit stressed at work and am considering changing my standard snarl of "Don't touch me! I don't like to be touched!" to "Don't try to contact me! I don't like to be bothered!")I hope it's getting better

Don't you think that one should have a certain amount of people they can declare as unsuitable for interaction with.
You could meet certain people, then you could just say...."I hate this person, put 'em on the list." and then you could just deny their existence
I think it's a wonderful idea

I always had anger and irritability when I upped the Lamictal. Like serious punching the wall type. It should subside in a couple days.
