After much consideration (and thank you all for the feedback, it was really helpful) I've just gone on Depo-Provera, in the hopes that it will totally stop my menstrual cycles. In order to offset the likely side effects I need to embark upon a regimen of weight-bearing exercise, and various other exercisey things, and possibly also food related things. I'll probably be writing about some of that, although any food stuff will take the form of "I cooked X tonight!" or "what do you do with rutabaga?" and not "this is my diet and my weight!" because, no.

I'll also be posting various things about dolls, because I sublimate much of my anxiety about physical things into doll collecting, in a complex, weird and expensive process. Many people find dolls creepy, and I like particularly creepy dolls, so this is just a heads-up about some new topics and pics that will be popping up in my journal. (I'll use cut-tags for picspam as usual, unless I'm deliberately trying to gunk up your friends page with crazy whorish barbies.) Don't worry, the usual baby cuteness & writing avoidance will still dominate, I'm sure (and if I'm unlucky so will the cyclical whining about endometriosis pain, but I really hope not)!
