Screw the FDA...

Come to find out that the FDA has taken 5-HTP off the market because it caused high blood pressure in a few people. And the stuff was the only thing that kept my depression in line. I hope whatever wonk decided to do that dies a slow, painful, miserable death, hopefully involving rabid rats and flesh-eating bacteria. I wonder how they'd feel if the one person it worked for killed herself, and they could have prevented it if they hadn't taken the stuff off the market. Probably just send my parents a polite letter of condolence, instead of doing something proactive.

And for the love of God, do *NOT* tell me I should go on pharmaceuticals. The side-effects are horrible. I'd rather be depressed than go through that.

What else? My hours got cut *AGAIN*, even after I specifically asked for *MORE* Hours. I guess "more" means "less" in whatever language Nosferatu the Second speaks. And oh yeah, the faction I started in MxO is folding, which might actually make it easier for me to just cancel the account, since I won't be able to afford it anyway.
