		<description>At the moment, I can&#039;t think of a medication that&#039;s surprised me with its effect on me -- but if sugar is a drug, then perhaps this is apropos:

Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Swiss Almond relieved my PMS.  &lt;i&gt;Instantly&lt;/i&gt;, as if I were in some kind of 1950s television commercial.

It was about twelve years ago.  I was having the worst attack of hormonal emotional meltdown I&#039;d ever had, crying uncontrollably, and the knowledge that I was in a public place did nothing to stem the flow.  A friend drove me to where I was going, and we stopped at a convenience store along the way, and I purchased The Ice Cream.

Vanilla Swiss Almond.  Some kind of alchemical elixir, that day.  Was it the sugar, the dairy, the salt, the protein, or the combination?

Heck, maybe I&#039;m all wrong.  Maybe I had a glass of water at the same time, and stopped being dehydrated from crying, and &lt;i&gt;that&lt;/i&gt; did the trick.  I&#039;m pretty sure it was the ice cream, though.

I resist the urge to indulge in this remedy very often.  The long-term side effects of over-use could be...problematic.  I save it for emergencies.  :)</description>
