I'm so glad that I'm not irritiable from the Riba, but some people have disagreed. May they rest in peace.

Kozure Ookami - 14 Jun 2006 04:54 GMT >Any good articles on this anywhere? > >I think I may have been experiencing some of this. Well I don't know about any articles but I imagine quite a few of us around here could have written some. Riba rage has a nice ring to it but I don't really know for sure whether it is the riba or interferon or both that messes with your emotions. I do know that something does because I sure got cranky about the time I started feeling the fatigue. Probably about 8 weeks into treatment. And I got more irritable as time went on and eventually became depressed. That stuff sure messed with my emotions. I remember stopping in a Pizza place to grab a slice and on tv is the olympics and the home town favorite is some woman from Greece who wins her race. I was just so happy for her I guess I burst into tears and the next thing I notice people are kind of staring at me. Towards the end of tx my outlook on life was grim. Glad that sh.t is over.

>> Triffids?? > >I don't get it. > >mye Well they're not so funny wqhen you have to explain them :-) A triffid was an alien plant in a well known sci-fi story that went around harming people. I just thought that someone who was riba raged might enjoy giving them out. Like I said, it doesn't seem so funny now :-)
Now where did I put my lead balloon? :-)
Cactus Jammies - 15 Jun 2006 00:10 GMT Paul one of the pictures I saw was that they were disguising themselves as Scotch Thistles gone to seed in a fallow field. shades of homeland conspiracy. I think those ones were English and that fallow field was on the outskirts of what used to be an east side london jungle on the thames, battersea or something like that? I wonder if they can swim to the West coast of Canada, if they can, look out Waterspider. Other pictures did not conjure such frightening thoughts. It's just a jump from the Gulf Islands to the SeaTac area, too. oh look out. I know that from I've read in (Bradbury?) that they don't like spreading along congested highways like Canada One, so I will have to wait until they ride their pontoon boats up the Columbia from Ft. Astoria. before I grab them for my plant presses. batten the hatches jenny!
I bet Avian flu mutations will probably soften up the populace first, overtaxing the strained heathcare system and making a lot of people not want to go to work. and the 4% of the population in hep rage or tx rage that would turn them into so much cole slaw with prickles and teeth.

Obviously, it's the riba that causes it (profound, eh?). Interferon makes you crazy and the riba makes you depressed and angry. I found that I was the most rageful when I was the most anemic. The lack of oxygen to the brain and muscles makes you dizzy, forgetful, confused and messes with your thought processes, as well as gives your muscles that burning sensation you get when you hit the wall as if running a marathon. The fatigue is excruciating. Combine all of the above and you get anger...riba rage. Anti-depressants will help some, but keeping your labs from getting too far off from normal will help even more. I'm referring to anemia. Procrit did wonders for my anemia and riba rage. Anyway, that's my slant on riba rage. elmo DO NOT punch the cop ahahahahahahaha!!!

Ally - 26 Jun 2006 23:42 GMT Thank you for explaining this, it makes a lot of sense. I've been sitting here pissed off at the world in general for the last two days, warning my friends not to come by for fear of biting their heads off. So I presume this will last till the end of tx, eh? Ah well, life could be worse I guess or maybe it will be, lol, I've learned not to assume I am going thru the worst.
Ally, grrrrrrrr

I've gotten better at adapting to the emotional side effects as Tx goes on. At least it seems to cause fewer problem now compared to first couple months.
At first, one way I adapted was by turning away from the TV or radio when content, especially political content, seemed to be eliciting a most uncomfortable and reactive responses from my fried neuro-cognitive system. Also, I found that avoiding tense interpersonal contacts to be therapeutic whenever possible. Today, I pick and choose situations that I will be involved with and I have the good fortune to be in regular proximity to only a few people who have adjusted to my altered temperament.
At the same time, I think a key adaptation I've made is to not take myself so seriously. Considering the enormous importance I reasonably and normally credit to my emotions, it's actually been only a small sacrifice, proportionately, to just back the f.ck off a little bit and give some quiet time to the miserable creeps with whom I am condemned to share the world.
It's probably important to note, as a principle of prudent and sensible health care, that mental gymnastics will NOT always attain the desired and necessary results when it comes to mental issues associated with IFN and Riba. As my care provider advised, if I find myself in a depression or state of disabling irritability that I cannot seem to get myself out of, then it will be prudent to see her for some pharmaceutical intervention. As it is now, however, the last thing I want is more drugs when all I need is more aluminum foil, munitions, and tactical air support.

Yep, I dumped the newspapers awhile ago and noticed my TV watching has been changing over the last couple of weeks. I record everything ahead of time and for no reason I'll be like "oh screw it" and delete a whole bunch of them because they irritate me. I mean, I couldn't give you a reason why, just is. And good advice on the interpersonal contacts. It's interesting which are becoming tense and which aren't all because of this. Thankfully I am not mad at the cat!

Hmmmm, yeah, okay, more good advice. Better then thowing a chair at them or something which is ideas that float thru my head at the time. Ugh, and I was always such a nice person b4. I had someone nicely telling me that I should just think about how worse off some other people are and how much good this is doing and all that stuff and I just wanted to scream at them, "what the hell do you know about it..." but fortunately I withheld my comments to things like, "I don't really care...". Eeps, now I KNOW I used to be nicer then that!

I do take an antidepressant though it seems not to help that much but refuse at this point to take anymore. I can't imagine how much worse I would feel if I wasn't on it though. For now, I will handle it as best as I can. It was funny actually. I was at Panera's having a bagel and reading minding my own business but in the back of my mind I kept waiting for someone to come over and say something. See I have a full body tattoo so people do tend to do that but like, I "wanted" someone to pick a fight with me or something. Now NO one has critisized my tats in a long time, they are usually compliments but no, I wanted a fight and I NEVER fight, LOL., grrrrrrrrr. Oh my.......

Long grueling hours under the gun and, sad to say, many more till my back and arm are finished. Did you know that many artists won't work on you if you have HepC but I am fortunate enough to have one who will. And in case you are wondering, this isn't how I got it, I was diagnosed long b4 I started this work.
