a light - i think you are right. she was taking oxycodon for pain and all of us around her could notice a difference in the last couple months. she has been a lot more cranky, as well as forgetful, than usual. when someone i know saw her after all this in the short time that she wasn't n the meds, i guess she really shone. now they have her back on them, and i don't know if they are also giving her any psych meds, and the psychiatrist at the senior behavioral place told her that one of her problems before all this was that she wasn't taking ENOUGH oxycodon, it's like wtf?!?!

so you are probably right she's not thinking the way we expect or anything like that. she also used to be pretty well off herself so i wonder if that is part of what made her unable to handle the money situation, like that might have been so tied in to her own sense of pride and identity or something.

iguess you don't realize until it happens, how much it affects you. i thought a lot of my weepiness lately was over like, boy stuff, and some of it surely is, but then again, i think this whole thing is the main thing, that's when i really started crying every day. now i can't get through a day w/o weeping over something, lol. also just started taking birth control and i don't think the pills are agreeing w/me too well. lol so yeah, i have cried more than ever in the last two weeks. this is always a sorta hard time of year i think, february.
