Sept is suicide prevention month

September is suicide prevention month. Last night I was reading my assigned chapter when it gave a few sentences about suicide and glucocorticoids being found in childhood abuse victims. I found this interesting. I read the abstract but it was way over my head as it was talking about receptors and gene types. I asked my psych professor if I could do the final on it. I think it would be interesting to research as suicide is my main thing I like to research. I know I talk about the treatment of it with therapy but if there can be a pill to take, that would be good, too. Imagine not being suicidal anymore by taking a pill. Anyway, reading this before bed, got me hyper and thinking so it was hard to sleep. I had some weird dreams. I don’t remember them though and they didn’t give me a headache.

I got up around 11. I took my meds and then went downstairs. I brushed my teeth before I had coffee. I still need to shave my head. I had two cups of coffee and some oatmeal as I was starving. The party was good. I had a lot of food. I had woken up around 3 to pee and then was up for about an hour. I was hungry but we are out of bread so I couldn’t make a sandwich. I wish I had known we were out of it as I would have ordered it on my peapod order. I thought we had one more loaf but we didn’t. I will get two loaves on Wed when my food stamps come in. I need to get more half and half as well. I am also going to try and get some turkey breast. It’s been a while since I had a turkey sandwich. My niece had made mac and cheese so I had that for lunch. I had my third cup of coffee with it. I need all the caffeine today.

I cleared off my bed. I just need to change my sheets and wash my comforter. I plan on doing that after I write this blog. My feet are cold so I don’t want to wash the comforter just yet. It’s a cool day again. I am loving this weather. I hope it stays like this but I know it won’t. It never does. I have a fairly free week aside from class. I see my DMH worker on Friday. I am going to try and leave early that day and go to the social security office so I can change my gender marker. It’s the last thing I need to do aside from getting my passport changed. I also need to get a “real” ID from the state. Getting the money for it has been hard the last few months. I would have the money if I wasn’t paying for my damn meds every month. I hate that they did away with the deductible. It really sucks. I am paying like $100 a month on my meds, sometimes more if I get everything.

I am getting tired so I am going to stop here. Until tomorrow, readers.
