And I've been too depressed to get more.
Send me some SSRIs, stat.
I wonder if the PayPal button will work for pharmaceuticals. It should, you know; I would think drugs would be a perfectly acceptable way to tip a blogger. A good entry would go for some bud. A really funny one would get me a week's worth of Prozac. Something truly provocative would net me a few Ambien 10s, and if I hit it out of the park, you PayPal me a few Tylenol 3s to help me batten down the hatches next time I have a bad period. Next person to choose me as his/her blog-crush can buy me a little Tanqueray. Tanqueray 10 if you've convinced yourself you're in love with me.
This is a workable system.

Personally, I find a prescription & a pharmacy to be a great shortcut.
Betty Butterfield strongly recommends
Mexican pharmacies for all your mood-altering needs

I can't help you with Prozac, but I've got some Zoloft I could part with.
I think your tip-jar idea is kinda bogus though. Everybody knows that bloggers produce more entertaining content when they're unmedicated than when they're all drugged up.

Jeff: the pharmacy is
all the way down the hill. I'd have to
get into my car. (Though I will today.)
Not Jeff: What a grim thought. I mean, truth be told I can live without mary jane and alcohol. And I can white-knuckle it through the cramps. Without the sleeping pills I'm just up all night, and often happily so. But the panic attacks when I'm off Prozac are truly debilitating. Stepping into an elevator or onto a plane is a big deal when I'm all the way off. Ugh.

I used to get panic attacks, & now always keep a pill case in my pocket with a Valium in it. It tricks your mind, since panic attacks are driven by fear of being out of control. You know you can always pop the Valium. Before I get on a plane, I take a quarter of a Valium.

That isn't a bad idea. I guess my equivalent is the way I've come to regard my one-drink-per-flight as a sort of entitlement: that bloody Mary or gin and tonic rewards me for getting on the plane all orderly-like without freaking, and keeps me from freaking out if we hit turbulence.
I do not like stepping into a tube to be shot across the country with a bunch of strangers in my space.

Only between consenting adults.

How about a gift certificate for an online Canadian pharmacy? You redeem it, they mail you your shit, you pop it and you're nice.
If only.....

Oh, wait. That won't work. I don't get nice. I just get a bit
less bitchy.
I can send you some links to nice webloggers, though.
