That was a relatable post. I've been having a headache for years and it's not getting any better, and I started feeling like my brain chemistry is getting permanently altered.

I always felt the same about therapy. Howard Stern said he had the same fear but swore it made him even more creative. Look at what a cunt he is now. re fitness and creativity: Bukowski was a slob, Hem was strong but husky, had lifelong hypertension, Selby was brain fried from experimental tuberculosis medication, Fante's diabetes led to the amputation of his legs .. there's definitely a theme there. Insightful and funny as always FTB.
