Big Red Wagon
Recently, due to a complex I have developed from my Excercise Physiology class, I gave up most drugs---ibuprofen and Claritin D being the main players in my life. The instructor keeps talking about how we shouldn't really need drugs, and all healing should be internal. I don't exactly believe that, but for some reason, I just decided I'd give up the drugs anyway. So, as of last Thursday, I quit. I really was not that reliant on drugs to begin with, but I definitely use ibuprofen for various ailments and Claritin when the pollen count is high. This experiment didn't last long, since I fell off the wagon this morning. Since giving up the Claritin, my allergies just kept getting worse. Yesterday I had gotten to that stage where after running it sounded like I had a major head and chest cold. I also had a headache all day. I woke up this morning, and the headache was still here, only it had gotten to the point where I couldn't move without feeling completely dizzy and disoriented. So here I am doped up on Claritin D and ibuprofen, just an unhealthy druggee after all. Yeah, I don't know why I believed him that I should give up on all drugs either.
