This morning, I woke up and turned off my alarm. When I did, I put my arm back on my bed and it stung. I was really confused since I was still in a kinda half-asleep state, and I was feeling around on the bed, thinking that maybe something sharp had gotten left on the bed, and was stung again on my finger. It burned kinda like a fire ant but a bit worse and more sharp. So I was really confused and I turned on my light. I didn't see anything, and I moved my pillow and there was a little scorpion under it. I freaked out.

I have never been stung by one or heard of anyone being stung by one, but I have seen them in my house before. It is a good think that it wasn't poisonous, because I am sure my heart was beating fast/hard enough to get the poison all the way through me almost instantly if it was.

I ran upstairs and woke my mother and we looked it up, and it was non-poisonous to humans. There aren't any poisonous ones where I live. Still, after only ever hearing about poisonous scorpions, I think my panic was warranted

It doesn't even hurt anymore, and I killed the scorpion in my room. I guess that will teach me not to keep pressing snooze, lol. Certainly got me awake that time.



I tried a new medicine Wednesday and yesterday called phenibut, 500mg wed and 1500mg yesterday. I was expecting strong anxiety relief. Nope. No such luck.

Despite people claiming it to be the best stuff ever and extremely addictive because of how good it is and it's rapid tolerance, I feel almost nothing.

Wednesday, nothing.

Today/yesterday, nothing. Anxiety is still about the same based on how I feel going to social network sites and thinking about social situations. I was able to have fun playing video games, so maybe a mild mood boost, but it was probably just placebo/chance. I felt a bit tired, but I don't know if that was just because it was getting close to sleeping time anyway. Any difference could very well be placebo. Not even close to what I was expecting. I guess I had too high expectations.

I will give it a break and probably try it at 3g next weekend and just see if it even does anything. It seems to be the right stuff based on its properties, and the company I bought it from even sent me a COA saying it was 99.9988% pure, and it seems like a pretty trusted company. It just does nothing for me. Who knows.
