"a-tishoo, a-tishoo..."

"...we all fall down"

Well, according to the news it's the worst year for hayfever ever since records were kept. Which explains why every morning I feel hungover - despite having not consumed any alcoholic beverages or dabbled with recreational drugs the night before. Of course, the itchy eyes, constant sneezing and the "pollock-effect" resulting from the coughing fits that I often have in the morning should have also given this away.

I find it worrying that the medication I take for my hayfever is now 1/8th as strong as it used to me. [I've been taking medication since I was aged 11] - back then, the pills were twice as strong and I took them 4 times a day - with an option to take additional ones should I need it]. Now it's one pill a day, half the strength.

I wonder how much worse it could be if I didn't take it at all.

[I did notice that my personality would change drastically when I was on the stronger medication... hmm... I wonder if I've had any long term damage done... or maybe I was genetically pre-meditated to be a bit crazy!]
