And it seems the people whose journals I regularly read are not on the Rib-Eye cluster. Because I can still look at their journals, but can't see mine. I don't even know if this update will work.

I'm not sure how many of you know that I started taking Sarafem 2 months ago for extreme PMS. It's really a low dosage (10 mg) of Prozac, and it's helped me tremendously with controlling my moods. Keeps me from becoming Other Person in those days before and during the monthly. It also, however, causes my dreams to be very vivid, and in some cases, totally wild.

Last night I had a dream (nightmare) that my sisters and I were going to be killed by some monster. No joke, the guy looked like a repulsive, reptilian monster. Brenda, Natalie, and I were in some sort of parade, and we had to take 2 turns around the short parade route, then be paraded right by Reptile Monster and await our fates. Brenda and I managed to get Natalie out of harm's way by having her make a run for it with one of the men supposedly guarding us, but who had told us he'd help us escape. In the dream, Natalie was much younger than 16.

Brenda and I made a run for it as well, soon as it was safe, but we were followed. By the time I woke up, we were still not completely safe, but were trying to use our wits to get us out. Very strange, not fun at all, and I can't figure out what significance it has. Most of what I call my Sarafem-induced dreams have some basis in reality. I'll need to think about this one to determine what it is.

Oh, my LJ is back, I think. Yes, I do think the dreams are an official side effect, just because I have a friend who is on another antidepressant and she has heard of this too. I'm not scurred that I'm having vivid dreams, I just don't like this particular one. Was weird. And it caused me to oversleep by half an hour, so I was late to work.

*hugs sizzle*
