I have issues with that. I was diagnosed with ptsd after a serious car accident a few years ago. I have a prescription I fill it once a year, a whole $4! And I rarely take them. Just knowing I have them makes me feel better...yup, I am weird. doodlebugmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03032541710183012767noreply@blogger.com
