Don't keep taking the pills

Something of a personal milestone: whilst collecting my anti-Plague medication from the local chemist this morning, I dropped-off my remaining stock of (long-expired) anti-depressants, for disposal.

I hadn't felt a need for them for years (the prescription was dispensed on 1 June, 2000), but I suppose I'd kept them for the security of an emergency crutch.

The time to get rid of them is clearly right, as it doesn't feel remotely momentous – I can't conceive of needing them now; that was a different person.
