I'm in this Bugzy Malone production
I
felt that Mirtazipine wasn't doing a great deal for me, so I cut down
the dosage and switched over to Duloxetine.
Disclaimer:
everyone is different and their reactions to different drugs will be
individual. Your doctor's the expert.
That
said, Duloxetine was horrible. Nausea, sweating, broken sleep,
agitation. Not something I want to continue with. Last night was my
last pill, having done it for 6 days. Not because I've ran out, but
because they were doing me no good at all.
As
mentioned before, you can't put a pill into your body and expect it
to cure all your ills, especially not if your problem is your own
perception of yourself- as is mine. But good, effective pills will at
least lift your mood and help you to function. I didn't want to be on
them long term, though, and this is the 4th brand I've
tried. So I've decided to come off.
Separately,
a few weeks ago Andy's Man Club Oldham were approached by a college
student at Oldham 6th Form who was filming a music video
for the Bugzy Malone track Ordinary
People. His plan was to film a mock-up of an AMC session, with a few
guys in a circle passing a ball around, having a chat. It went pretty
well on the day and the end result is great quality. Take a look.
And
finally, DVLA have opened up the criteria for their disabled blue badge scheme, meaning people with hidden disabilities are now
eligible.
I filled an application in referencing memory difficulties, including
my psych assessment, and was awarded one. It makes it a lot easier to
find my car later on if it's closer to the venue.

Warrior Dinner at Foodwell
Last
night I attended an influencer dinner promoted by Warrior Supplements, a new brand of
gym-themed food. In association with Go:PR and Events, the dinner brought
together bloggers, tweeters and 'grammers for an evening at the
stunning Foodwell in
Manchester's
Spinningfields.
We
were offered a slimmed-down but still highly appealing version of the
menu: a choice of cauliflower hot wings, flamed yakitori chicken
skewers and seasonal soup for starters and a choice of coconut katsu
curry, Firefly burger and cauliflower shwarma as mains.
I
went for the cauliflower starter- a nicely spicy opener, and followed
it with the katsu curry, a mild, delicious concoction with crispy
breaded chicken and a thick, dabbable sauce.
In
attendance: TOWIE's Dan Osborne, here sporting
Warrior's new hoodie.
Warrior's
products include protein shakes, white chocolate crisp or salted
caramel crunch bars, chocolate brownie or white chocolate and
cranberry flapjacks. (These were included in the complimentary goody
bags, along with a shaker.) Keiron, owner of KPF Enterprises, who own
the Warrior brand, gave a speech about the products, explaining the
bars are available in Iceland, ASDA, and B&M for a fair £1.
A
great night in a lovely venue with friendly influencers and staff.
