Me: ”This thing came up late at night in a group chat. Question the price and quality of your meds.”I was such a dork to eat the first prescribed birth control for many years.
After many years, my blood pressure stood out as an issue. I was prescribed a mini pill, that is supposedly better for blood pressure.Me: ”Well, I can’t say much about that blood pressure, but…”
[Author/Artist eats two different BP meds]There are other benefits.
Sales clerk: ”X euros, please!”
Me thinking: ”About half cheaper than my old birth control!”
Me: ”Then my periods stopped. It is a common side effect of my current birth control pill. I am not bothered, actually.”Many other medicines can also be raced.
Pharmacist: ”Would you accept a similar, cheaper brand?”
Me: ”Yes, please!”I recommend discussing the price of medicines at the pharmacist’s or the quality of the product at the doctor’s office.

Trigger warnings for depression and suicidal thinking
Me: ”Somehow I have often thought that being depressed is like being possessed.”
”One thinks thoughts that don’t feel one’s own.”Me, depressed: ”Mostly I am pissed off because of my shitty attitude, idiocy and tardiness.
I would jump in that card board shredder myself, if it did not bring problems to others.”Me: ”It might scare my inner circle of people, and others deny its existence completely.”
Me: ”It actually made me feel better to learn how the thing works on organ level.
It has something to do with amygdala, stress hormone and developing brain.”So, next time:
Someone: ”How can you be like that?!”
Me: ”Depr…”
Someone: ”Depression is whole lotta hooey! You have no reason to be depressed!
It is only in your head!”
Me: ”My unstable childhood environment and unequal treatment in elementary school made my amygdala produce stress hormone non-stop, which damaged my developing brain!
Of course it is in my head!”Someone: ”Oh…”
ETA// Mantelitumake on siis käskenyt jonkun toisen osan pöhöttää kortisolia oikein kunnolla, stressihormoni ei kehity itse mantelitumakkeessa.
Amygdala has commanded some other part of my body to process a lot of stress hormone, it does not develop in the amygdala itself.
