How many of you faggots take psych meds?
I'm on Fetzima and Latuda and I fucking love them both.
Also general depression thread
Depressionfag/anxietyfag/adhdfag here, therapist also suspects bipolar without mania.
>Lamictal for mood stability
>Latuda for depression
>Xanax for anxiety attacks
>Vyvanse for adhd
>Adderall for vyvanse crashes
>>671576902
GAD
Bipolar II
SAD
lithum

lagmictal
buspar
seroquel
atatrx
dox-pin
clonodine
>>671577783
How is the vyvanase?
>>671578410
Fuckin rocks. Helps the ADHD a ton. Also pretty much gets rid of depression while it's active (4-12 hours depending on dose and person).
>>671577783
>xanax and adderall
>doesn't just use adderall for adddd
You are so full of crap anon-kun holy fucking shit.
>>671579008
The vyvanse is XR and usually lasts my whole school day. The low dose of adderall helps keep the crash from it away until I'm ready to sleep, I can take it up to twice a day.
>>671578770
I've been trying to get on provigil, I feel good but I need a kick in the ass to get going sometimes
>>671576902
ITT: Crying ass people who cant handle life without popping pills from the doctor...
Wellbutrin and testosterone.
>>671579348
What's provigil for? I've never heard of it
>>671576902
celexa
have been on: xanax, clonazepam (became addicted to benzo's, had to detox and stop forever), ambien, buspar, wellbutrin, lexapro, zoloft, librium (ER), ativan (ER), haldol (ER), propanolol,
>>671579552
At least you tried
>>671579664
It's another amphetamine, used for people who have difficulty staying alert or work odd shifts
>>671576902
i take
effexor
welbutrin
seroquel
klonopin
>>671579206
Amphetamines, anti-cholinergics, and diazepines at the same time. Where'd your doctor get his PHD, mexico?
>because I need it to function for school
You sure you aren't just a drug addled idiot?
>>671580461
If you google all the medications you will see that there are no interactions between them. And I'm not a drug addled idiot, I suffer from multiple disorders and am being treated for them just like you'd treat any other illness.
>>671579936
That sounds pretty cool. Does it just give you a boost of energy and put you to sleep after or what?
>>671580849
Yea it basically kicks you in the ass so you crash and sleep well
>>671580849
>there are no interactions between tranquilizers, stimulants, and medications that change your heart function.
You are the most special kind of stupid there is. The most.
>>671580849
>I suffer from many disorders none of which are comorbid.
Fuck this thread.
>mfw im the outcast of the outcasts
>>671576902
Doesn't that have estrogen in it?
Guys should I take some Nightquil for a chill high? Im poor af right now and need something for a really high high or a chill low. OTC plz
>>671581455
Google "interactions between xanax and adderall" and "interactions between xanax and vyvanse", you'll find that there are no dangerous interactions. My current APRN and my previous psychiatrist agree with that.
Abilifag here, i take 5mg every night. It used to be zoloft and kpins
>>671582214
Does Abilify work for you? I had awful experiences with it and I've mainly heard nothing but negative things about it.
Zoloft and klonopin sonnnnn benzos r dope 4 a second but not after like 2 weeks
I get some trilafon (perphenazine) every 14 days for a major psychosis, it's a hell of a drug
>>671582455
well its supposed to make me more active and in a good mood, and to help me sleep but it doesnt do shit. Id rather have some kpins or bromazepam
>>671576902
wellbutrin 300mg
lexapro 10mg
vyvanse 40mg
d-amphetamine 20mg
my life is really dull. i have plenty of friends, and a fwb, but i'm lonely.
i skip a lot of class and my grades are dropping. i just stay up really late and sleep through my morning classes, then i justify skipping my afternoon ones to myself.
i'm wasting thousands of dollars. i'm floating a 2.9 GPA in chemical engineering right now. my second year is almost over.
i'm drowning.
>>671582134
Google "why the fuck can't four loko be sold pre mixed anymore"
Also google, "why can't I stop sucking dicks"?
And get a real fucking doctor if you think you need that many medications to function.
>>671581123
provigil is modafinil. its closer to caffeine than amphetamine but its really neither of those. all it does is prevent the sensation of fatigue. its a wakefulness promoter.
amphetamines kick its ass though. modafinil is pretty weak.
>>671582827
stop that lol
>>671582827
Your medications (except wellbutrin, not sure about that) are at pretty low doses, up them and get a better sleep schedule going on. Find a hobby or something you can escape to that isn't weed or alcohol.
>>671582977
What does four loko have to do with any of this? It's apparent that you have little to no experience in dealing with mental disorders and medication, stop talking about something you know nothing about.
>>671583320
i know what i need to do, and i know the consequences for not doing what i need to do, but i'm still not doing the things i need to do.
what the fuck is my deal.
>>671583654
sleep schedule is my biggest thing. i find myself looking at the clock and its 11:00pm, then 12:00am, then 1:00am...
probably wise to get a hobby. i don't really know what that means though. currently if i'm not playing video games for fun, i'm smoking dope or popping GHB.
drugs are not good hobby. problem is, most of my friends also do drugs as their hobby.
>>671584157
>sleep schedule is my biggest thing. i find myself looking at the clock and its 11:00pm, then 12:00am, then 1:00am...
shut off your damn computer
>>671584157
Talk to your doctor about trazodone, that shit works like magic. Clonidine is also really good.
Quick question, how old are you?
>>671584157
Id recommend getting flux on your computer and phone, take melatonin every night at 10pm, it doesn't necessarily work immediately but over time it can entrain your circadian rythym
>>671583654
The alcoholic caffeine beverage? Nothing unless you're talking about the disastrous effects of mixing stimulants and tranquilizers. Don't tell me to google if your happy ass won't do the same.
8 years ago my hair was falling out from topamax, so you can shut your mouth. When your memory is shot and going up the stairs runs you out of breath...you'll wish you could take it back, but you can't. If you honestly are that ignorant and uninterested in your health I guess I should be rooting for you.
risperdal, hydroxazine, ambien
>>671584432
its like, i can say to myself "look if you just go to bed now you can do computer shit in the morning before class, then you can actually go to class"
or i'll say "if i do my homework and shit early, then i'll have real legitimate free time to do whatever i want" but instead i put shit off and waste time, all the while i'm wracked with anxiety about the shit i'm going to have to do in a couple hours.
>>671584555
yeah i'd like to move into other types of antidepressants. they've always worked for me. every time i come off, my life is less enjoyable than the times that i'm on.
my mother is bipolar and other shit. she's on a cocktail of drugs, i know she's on Topamax though. she fucking hates it.
i'm 19.
>>671584825
flux is great. i should get it on my phone though. i use sleep cycle as well but its hard to get good sleep when you only sleep five or six hours.
i figure if i got in a regular habit of having all my shit ready for bed and taking a melatonin it would help. i pop them infrequently now, but i find myself staying up through them from time to time. its not hard to resist.
New fag here about Vyvanse 30mg
Just got it prescribed to me today, what should I expect to feel?
My Doc thinks if I take this for just now testing positive for ADHD after 23 years it will help my sleep, so she took away my Ambien.
She thinks my brain can't be shut off, so that's why I don't sleep.
Just got of depression shit with Vibryd, an don't take it because I can finally build my mental health myself without having a crutch carry me anymore.
On Risperdone they wanted me to take Latuda fuck that shit.
>>671585486
Show tits.
>>671585388
its great for a couple weeks, then it is pretty good for a couple of years, then it sucks but you have to keep taking it after that.
it steals your soul, boss. i regret having started it but its not like i'm going to stop now.
i think methylphenidate is not as bad as amphetamines, but i only took ritalin for about a month so who knows.
Jeez Op i wish i would be pumped up on meds as you are, only thing i can get hands on a couple times are 10 mg ritalin, or a couple pillz tramadol
another thing, do you guys avoid checking things?
like, i hate checking due dates, or emails, or text messages.
for some reason, i just will not fucking check these things. as if i get some sort of comfort out of not knowing what somebody has said to me, or when something is due.
with texts especially, it doesn't make sense. like why would i avoid reading them? the other person assumes i read it anyway, so what the fuck is the point in ignoring it?
>>671586146
You're an over anxious procrastinator aka "a flake"
>>671585353
definitely, I used to go to bed no earlier than 1 but usually more around 3am or later, then Id sleep through my morning classes until about noon, then one of my blackout blinds broke so I get natural sunlight exposure in the morning and I started taking 5mg melatonin at 10pm every instead of whenever I was about to sleep and now my sleep schedule is about 11pm to 9am which is perfect for me
>>671586305
yeah i know.
and i hate it in other people. i fucking hate it when people don't reply to my messages, or back out of shit at the last minute.
but i do the same fucking thing.
>>671586146
this is me exactly
I dread the sound of my phone ringing and hate the sound of texts most times
>>671576902
I've tried 6 different kinds of anti-depressents every time same result about a month goes by start spending less time socializing a week later start spending more time sleeping staying in bed and around the same time i start contemplating turning my car on in the garage with the windows down and just waiting to pass out, the last time sent me on a binge drinking benzo/heroin rampage where i woke up in the psyche ward after taking enough of said drugs to kill a fucking elephant and every goddamn time theres a nurse staring at me telling me what a goddamn miracle it is i'm alive I'm getting real sick of all these goddamn miracles I've kind of just come to accept that apparently I'm imortal I not invlunerable I feel like shit all the time but apparently i can't die I drove my car into a cement barrier at 100mph guess what woke up in the hospital it's a fucking miracle, tied a nuse around my neck and jumped out of tree once again fucking miracle and a month in a psych hospital I've just given up I'm done with anti-depressents and I'm just trying to live life in my body that's constantly falling apart while I have absolutely no interest in living life anymore, seems to be my own personal hell
>>671586628
that'd be really nice.
i wish i could do that. nobody is going to make it happen but me though, and i know that. i have to make that change.
if i got up in the morning my life would be so much more enjoyable. currently, my social life is stagnant because i never meet any new people because i never go anywhere.
last year i went to parties and on dates and stuff every weekend. i always had something to look forward to. now its just burning time until i fall asleep again.
Xyrem. Beat that, faggots.
>>671587563
Don't know what kind of witch magic that is
>>671586784
It completely goes away when you move yourself into a situation you're happier with. Making that move is the hard part. If you do it with meds your brain never quite learns how to accomplish it on its own. You depend on the meds to "feel right" and then one day your tolerance is too far, a doctor doesn't agree, or you're sick of not being able to be proud of yourself. The meds go away and you are right back where you started, having made little to no progress from when you started the medications. Obviously this is a generalization, but you get the idea.
Tl;Dr
Making it happen yourself teaches your brain what chemicals need to release to make the specific you happy. Meds are for putting you on autopilot until you get an extreme issue out of the way, an no longer.
>>671587906
there's situational depression and then there's clinical depression i think your talking strictly about the first
>>671587794
Literally prescription GHB. Takes a specially qualified psychiatrist to prescribe it, and few pharmacies even have it.
Bipolar I MRE Depressed
GAD
Depakote
Seroquel
Minipress
Trazadone
Hydroxizine
>>671587563
>>671587794
is GHB
do you take it every night? what's your dose?
very interested. i use it recreationaly.
>>671587240
Don't worry too much anon, life flips around unexpectedly, just be ready for when you see a chance you want to grab, best of luck
>>671576902
Just a fucking addict
>Ativan
>Cocaine
>Pot
>Valium
>Xanax
>>671588190
Take it rarely, only when my sleep cycle reverses. About 50ml initial dose
>>671588499
what's that in grams?
how often do you say you take in a month?
have you ever used it to get fucked up?
i take it once a week on the weekends. incredible drug. its like alcohol but with none of the negatives. obviously its still bad for you, but a hell of a lot better than alcohol.
>>671586972
You need to completely start a new life. A live in job of the outdoorsy type in a new state. You probably dont need those pills. A little bit of pot couldn't hurt either. Stay away from the doctor unless you break something. God speed anon, that sounds incredibly prison like.
Wish I knew where to get black market clonazepam. They gave it to me to shut me up when I broke my leg and waiting for surgery. Now I would kill for some while getting dental work. That shit should be standard.
>>671589057
the deep web is great i get bars and 10mg k-pins for $1 each and so many people get perscriptions mailed to them this day plus since the usps is a federal agency they need a warrant to interfere with the delivery of your mail basically meaning it's next to impossible to get caught, there are plenty of reddit forums with the info you need to get started it doesnt take that long to figure out
>>671588776
4.5 grams over 2 doses at night. I've never taken it to get fucked up. I'm actually taking it for depression because nothing else works.
>>671589512
bc only?
>>671588100
Situational depression is a normal occurrence in everyone that is rarely considered for meds in situations that are not physically threatening.
No, I'm not talking about something people normally don't need assistance with. That advice is almost universally, "suck it up, buttercup".
>>671588964
sadly pot gives me anxiety attacks but i think your right about the pills since i stopped drinking/using i haven't gone back to my psychiatrist and i don't plan too and unless i can find a 100% guaranteed way to take my life I'm done trying I'm convinced If I jumped off a skyscraper and landed head first I'd wake up in a hospital with my skull stapled together and they'd be telling me what a miracle it is I'm alive they always come up with some bullshit excuse for why I survived although no real explanation for how i ended up in the hospital just have a fucking guardian angel with the ambulance on speed dial I guess
>>671589789
You clearly have no understanding of the brain.
What is your take on Bipolar-I and Bipolar-II?
>>671576902
you crazy bitch bipole
>>671589753
ya but with sites like local bc and western union transfers it's easy enough to get bc these days don't waste your time with coinbase or any of those big sites individual lenders with trusted seller rating like over 1000 confirmed trades with positive ratings is the way to go and it's a lot faster
>>671590373
I've got a wallat locally from way back when, might be like 2 bt ish on it.
>wu
I dont want to give my info for a drug trade.
>>671590006
There are actually six categories of bipolar. Lilly's zyprexa is thought/advertised to be one of the most effective for nearly all of them although there is no medical precedent for one medication or the other.
You really want my opinion? I think manic depressive cycles are normally a natural thing having perhaps something to do with the moon, other planets, possibly magnetic waves. Asians for the past 4000 years can't all be wrong.
Sometimes, though more commonly nowadays due to societal stress...it becomes an unchecked disorder that needs medical intervention to correct as the body incorrectly tries to keep adapting to your non environmentally influenced emotions.
Or I could be full of shit.

Wow anon, one fucking off. I'm not necessarily a pot advocate and I'm sure you could change many things with exercise, diet, and a fresh life. But those things take time and I worry how you will feel in the mean time. Indica is a strain of cannabis that is quite sedating. I would gather that you might be sensitive and getting non medical grades means you're smoking a lot of hybrids (sativa can make you very anxious). The thing is I know of little else in the way of mental panceas that aren't rife with side effects.
>>671591415
>one medication
Um you need to go back to wikipedia and do some more quick on the spot reading.
Lithum is 90% effective in all cases of bipolar.
Im bipolar-II hypomania.
WIthout medication im at "the bottom of the barrel" roughly putting it.I dont normally have manic episodes,but when i do they are fucking bad.Also controlling urges is very rare(binge drinking,spending money,wreckless driving/speeding).You really cant tell me such drastic changes are all in my head things that i control? What about the Pet SCANS showing people with depression are less active then those with without any ment condition? What about the lack of/excess of norepinephrine,dopamine,serotonin in mental ill patients?
You're telling me im forcibly making my body produce and consume them at an increased/decreased rate?
Get fucked
>>671592885
>reading vs on the ground experience
You get fucked, I was answering the question, "in my opinion" not, "this is what it is" just like I was asked. You have a disorder, that's for sure.
>>671592885
>you can't tell me that I might be able to change with hard work and depend less on medications for my happiness because I need to have a justifiable reason to be a lazy leech

Why? How do you feel?
Just an oldfags .02 here.
What in Hell has happened to you faggots? This is the 2nd generation I've seen that can't handle life. No shit.
It seems like all you fags like to trap yourselves in sadness and have to be labeled as depressed. God knows when you go to your shrink he's gonna Rx SOMETHING for what he's decided ails you.
I think a lot of you are Rx'd too much shit but you don't care/understand what in Hell it's doing to your brain long term.
Trazadone and Prozac. They aight.

I was on those a while ago, they didnt do shit invidiually or together, that was a horrible 4 months dicking around with those.
Have you asked your psych about antipsychotics? Those two are the started ssri's and neuro is lightweight shit
Ask them about depokote
>>671594537
Are you using seropquel for sleep or XR for mood stab during the day?
I was on 1000mg of it and i hated my life so bad.
>>671595325
Nail on the fuckin head.
>>671595062
I was in a very expensive outpatient program for like 3-4 months and after I got done I just never went to find a Psychiatrist and eventually ran out of meds. I feel fine, I'm pretty good at handling myself now. Abilify did work great though, I just never really felt anything. Neurontin was great for any anxiety and shit.
>Bipolar I with Psychotic Features
>>671596246
I actually loved the combination. They worked great for me. I don't have a pdoc, see
>>671596769
>>671596769
At least find a counselor/psychologist. This is textbook manic behaviour and if I knew your situation a little better I would tell you the problems WILL come back when you run into your next period of heavy stress. Its very low pressure, just someone to talk to once or twice a month who you trust to let you know if they think you might need to take more steps. Be safe.
>>671595325
tell us more, doctor faggot
>>671596246
Yeah, also for it's anti psychotic properties.
I think it kinda flattens me out a bit too much.
>>671597367
psychologist/therpist are just there to enable your thoughts so they can keep you coming back to them. They do nothing and are a waste of time. You're just paying for a hooker that you only talk to then leave
>>671597615
Paging doctor faggot! Kek.
>>671597728
This guy knows what's up
>>671597615
For why?
You're just gonna get something Rx'd to try to fix your normal life.
>and you'll suck those pills down like they're cocks, Faggot
>>671576902
600 mg lithium
Atypical Bipolar.
Doc says she'll look at possibly adding an antipsychotic or changing my medication if my suicidal thoughts don't decrease in severity.
>>671598148
I love the amount of people on lithium. You're actually getting help and you're doctor isnt a retard
>>671589998
What the fuck are you even talking about. Kill yourself, I don't give a fuck about the law or doctors or any authority that tells me it's wrong to tell you this.
>>671597728
>its a conspiracy!
Or schizophrenia. They wouldn't have a profession if they didn't get results, genius. Also why you find one you're comfy with, because the experience is in YOUR hands.
>>671598111
>for why?
because you're talking out of your gaping asshole
and you sound retarded
>>671597880
This guy knows how to jump on bandwagons.
Do people actually go to their doctors and ask for this shit?
I probably have a bit of depression and pretty bad anxiety but I figured the last thing I'd want to do is go on meds like that. I'd rather my life spiral out of control first and then do it. Also I guess if shit got really out of hand at least I'd know for sure my problems weren't just made up in my mind.
>>671598431
You're a naive fool. But keep living in your imaginary just world.
>>671598543
And you're weak, mindless and infantile wanting a pill to cure what you need to be working on to make yourself worthy.
>here we are now, entertain us...
>>671598559
What even makes you think this therapy and psychology even works and is real, science? You only believe that because authority tells you, or at least you believe so. Just use your own brain for a change, that's the problem nowadays.
>>671598431
Before i was even allowed by my insurance to see a psychatrist i was orderd to do 120 total hours of "theraphy or behavioral assistance traning". I went through 12 "therpists" before i was allowed to see my psych.They served no purpose and were giant assbags speweing out toxic comments. Cognitive behavioural theraphy is the bigest retarded lie i have ever seen. You're basiclly a kindergarten filling a "where did he touch you" report.Interpersonal is just them renforcing your fears and offering ways to "get over them" but they arent really going to work so you come back the next week and you discuss it. Then try it again.Next week you try something else
I've been through this shit. Unless you're a godfearing retard.It serves no purpose
>>671598364

See, faggots like you can't even read properly, and yet you think you know it all. You didn't read many books did you. Just internet shit.
>>671586146
Im like this with bills, my bank account, and voice messages.
Voice messages started with a job i had where it could have been the MOE calling to inquire about a job i did, a conversation which could lead to 6 figure fines or jail time..
Im not in that field anymore, but that fear isnt associated to my illness, i dont think.
>>671598580
Go to your doc and tell them whats is wrong. Lack of motivation,excessive eating,exterme emotional outbursts.going from hyper sad to hyper happy. Flat out tell them
If you dont tell them how are they going to help you?
>>671586146
That's a serious illness, it's in the DSM. Kill yourself now before you kill your family.
>>671598827
No, you're just strongly biased to bad experiences that likely had a lot to do with your narcissistic personality. There are bad docs the same as there are bad cops, but they are a minority you're gonna project onto everyone you privileged millennial.

Celexa for depression
Abilify for hallucinations/paranoia
>>671599701
They're not bad, they're just part of a system. Leave it to god to judge.
>>671586972
I am moderately educated my psychology. I am not really an expert, it was elective but im trying to qualify myself for this opinion:
Your doctor(s) are missing something. You might not be suffering from depression at all. It could be co morbid to something else. You could have something untreated, that could even be stupid and easy.
I suggesr finding a new doctor.
Request biochemistry tests, and if you can, CT scans.
I dont know you/theyve done already, but to me, when anti depressants arent working, youre being shrugged off and mistreated
>>671599170
>what makes me think talking about things instead of bottling them up works
Because that's why we are social creatures anon. You're seeking what you'd already have with a proper support system. Science? Its common fucking sense.

I read that dude.
the point I'm making is that not EVERYONE needs that type of meds, but damned if ya'll won't go crying about some trivial problem and of course you'll get Rx'd something.
I've never seen a person get dropped by a Shrink because they're "healed".
>>671599187
That does sound unesscessarily convoluted and tedious. I'm sorry you experienced that. I'm simply recommending the other anon find a trusted professional they can "check in" with once in awhile to bolster there confidence in their healing...so it has a greater chance to stick and they don't end up back, "deep in the system" like you are describing.
How much are meds? I have insurance but still afraid to get a prescription for depression pills.

>>671599914
You're right. I apologize.
>>671599555
I assume when I finally snap and end up in a psych ward is when they'll help me haha
I regulate pretty well with pot though. Plus I have taken stuff like st. johns wort and 5-htp. Actually the one thing really fucking me up is my alcohol use but I'm getting better at that.

Cymbalta
Xanax
Abilify
I don't have insurance right now, so the generic Abilify is costing me $240 a month even with coupons I'm using. I'm going to try the generic Abilify from CoinRx (from India) next month because it's only $50.
I tried switching to Latuda from Abilify, and it made me depressed as fuck, so I had to go back to Abilify.

Obviously you're meant to do, be, or create something. Or nothing at all. be patient and expect nothing
>>671600097
Talking to someone. That's the only value in therapy. But it can't change your life or solve all these stupid problems people have, everybody has them, it's life. Talking isn't even necessary, you can just take paper and a pen and start writing. That's a lot cheaper. There is no added value in this psychologising everything it only makes people weak and dependent. And it will never change real life problems you have to do that yourself, so then what's really the value of it since feeling depressed or whatever all comes from real life situations. If not you'd be really insane.
>>671600061
I disagree strongly with you.
>>671601064
Jesus thats depressing... im a brit and forget how unforgiving the american system is, im on abilify too and my monthly script is a grand total of £8
>>671600687
I would advocate not getting on SSRI/SSNI there are too many side effects on each one.
For me they made me extremly aggressive.I could get a paper cut
and i would throw chairs and random objects in range in to the wall.

You might not ever "snap".

Haha, okay.

I am also like this with voicemails, bank account, email, and regular mail. I say to myself, "It couldn't POSSIBLY be anything good, so fuck it." I wish I wasn't afraid to check my voicemail. 5' 10" 275 pounds 23% body fat. Afraid of his voicemail.

Shits crazy.

Mmm that's what I was afraid of too. I work with people everyday so I can't take a chance of an outburst like that. Thanks for the info bro.

Thanks for the sympathy bro.
Here in america, psych meds can be really expensive if you don't have insurance, which I haven't had for the past 3 months.
Right now, my three meds cost me a total of $300 a month. I'm eating rice for meals just to afford my psych meds.

>>671595325
You hear about it more often than before because people can talk about it now. Its the same as it ever was, but science and understanding and especially treatment has caught up.
Mental illness denial is extremely harmful, you have to accept it exists as simply and logically as you can computers work the way they do because theyre programmed and wired to do so. Human brains are shoddy computers put together by evolution. You accept you have strengths and weaknesses, and its normal. But when someone has a weakness so great it ruins their life, you blame them. Consider this:
I am a 29 year old male. I was diagnosed with adhd at age 13. I got no treatment until i was 27 (mostly because people were unnaccepting and discouraging.. Thanks for that..)
In that time between, i travelled the country, got a uni degree, built from minimum wage to 2.5 times minimum in under a year, ive held management and franchise owner positions, and ive been homeless (i broke out of that too).
Do i look stupid or lazy from the above? No, definitely not.. But somethings wrong for sure.
A brain scan will show you my pre frontal cortex does not work. As a result, I am impulsive, disorganized, unable to commit to anything, unable to maintain a routine, and my interests change wildly. Its all out of my control.
2 years ago i got a tiny pill i dont feel that doesnt alter my personality. It makes my pre frontal cortex work proper...
My finances are repaired, my job is maintained, addictions(nicotine and alcohol) beaten, and i have routines. Also people stopped accusing me of being on drugs even though i never was.
And youll still call me lazy or say i make excuses if i say "i have adhd". Ferget it.
>>671600245
Absolutely fucking wrong. The people with the most problems in their life know how it is. That's why parents raise children and not the other way around you dingbat.
>heavy metals don't represent natural elements
What??
Blood tests are adjusted based on titration, tolerance, weight, availability and a host of factors. Man did it take you awhile to get confident enough to prove you were dense.
>>671601686
Hey bro, go here to find the cheapest pharmacy in your area for your latuda. This site saved me $400 a month on my Abilify. I use the coupons from it every month for my meds.
goodrx.com
>>671601949
Doesn't that make you even more depressed? Just leave that shit and do something. You don't need meds any more than a smoker does cigarettes.
>>671602095
This is truth.
>>671602067
>get over
The allure of society is the only thing that identifies you have a disorder. Stay alone and you have no reason to know or change your behaviour for any other type. You cannot be this deluded.

I was forced to get insurance,i normallly didnt have any insurance. Then obama came in and its mandantory.
I get wanting to have the system, but if im not opting in i shouldnt have a 500% fine every month.Just give me my money back on my tax return for not having insurance.
Now i have a monthly i have to pay(even when i dont use it) and a high as fuck debutable/out of pocket.
Great healthcare we got here
>>671602395
I tried quitting the Abilify this month. I lasted 17 days without it, and couldn't last anymore. I spent two weeks in bed crying every day because I was so depressed without it. After 17 days I caved in and started taking it again, and I'm starting to feel better again.
>>671602095
>And youll still call me lazy or say i make excuses if i say "i have adhd". Ferget it
Projecting. I didn't say that at all.
Life can throw you a curve, and it's not fair. There will be times that you're depressed and sad, even manic. But that doesn't mean that you need meds to get through them.
Kids today lare nto responsible and mature. And they sure as Hell don't like criticism.
I'm glad it works for you but I have to say that the majority that gets Rx'd don't need it.
>>671602095
Some people need help. Oldfag anon was making a generalization. Very glad you finally found something that works so effectively. Sounds like you kicked ass all the way to eventually finding just what you need. Tell me, would you have rather gone back and had doctors throw medications at you instead? Might have been very hard to tell the correct medication even if you were flying sideways on three at a time.
>>671602607
Yes you would have that reason because sleeping all day would never provide you with sustenance. You'd die, just like you'd die now.
>>671601543
Me and you are the same person. I have all the same phobias.

>>671603043
Yeah ours isnt perfect but wow thats a half baked idea, i mean yes our taxes are higher so a sudden change would be painful but we've had it so long that everyone is used to it being this way, i guess you could be annoyed that youre paying for something you may never need with your tax but its comforting to know that even as a broke student if i suddenly become seriously ill i wont backrupt myself at the same time
>>671603393

This isn't even science. Psychology and Psychiatry. Even the way drugs are developed isn't scientific. It's just try and see what works.

literally no

If I never snap then I guess there's no problem haha
I'd still rather try herbal remedies like st. johns wort though, but when I tried it I found I started getting weird heart issues and it went away after I stopped taking it. Plus it did nothing to help my motivation or focus. Sometimes I think I'm just legitimately lazy though and it's not actually a problem lol

Okay, I am leaving the thread but I am gonna email you
>>671603810
Sounds good

Then why is it poisonous uber faggot?
Toxic does not mean restricted.
Tell me how amphetamine SALTS are toxic and need blood level testing.
You so damn mad. Take your pills.
>>671603513
Right,but you have your deducatable first(lets say 2000)
Thats is blown one day if you're in the er.
THEN your insurance will decide what they want to pay for from your bills.Now you're still stuck with a huge 5K+ bill
Sume safety net.
Enjoy being on another monthly payment plan in addition to your insurance

No I mean sleeping all day in not being able to provide for your needs as a human being. Like how that defines a psychiatric illness.
zoloft and klanazopan or however you spell it
panic disorder and OCD
>>671604620
Have you ever tried Cymbalta

That actually defines a disorder, NOS.

Nah it isnt
>>671604992
You are about to burst with enlightenment, anon.
>>671603204
Yes youre right. There are times you are depressed and sad. Lets go back to "computer".
Your brain has systems in place to make you happy, depressed, sad, joyful; and they all have fundamental uses. They have evolutionary advantages. They are all your brains reactions to external stimuli to illicit from you an appropriate response for survival.
But the same way some people are born short and weak, tall and strong, down syndrome, one eye off center, whatever you can actually see and prove with uour own eyes, some people are born with that system not working at all! And its very very common. Frighteningly common in fact.
Some peoples brains just do not produce the chemicals needed to be happy. And when that happens, these people will mostly be depressed no matter what happens.
It is not hard at all to believe understand or accept. Not even slightly. It is simple.
Everything your brain does is a chemical or a neural program. Sometimes people do not have said chemical or neural program. Their moods and behaviours follow suit.
And yes. I would have much rather doctors helped me.
Einstein had adhd. He was treated with amphetamine. His success is directly attributed to both his condition and his treatment (remembering adhd is not an illness but a personality type with many benefits as well in the way of cognition and thinking).
I was considered "gifted yet lazy" by my teachers and extremely interested in science as a child and i wanted to be an astrologist. I couldnt get the grades in the sciences to do what i wanted. Medication would have meant the difference between 13 year old me crying uncontrollably over a text book because my brain wouldnt let me read, then being accused of being lazy the next day, and honour roll.
I am too old, too far in debt, too invested in my wife and the life ive built for myself, and tuition is too expensive to g back and acheive.
Even though i have done so well anyway, i have lost a lot to the condition.

I dont have ptsd. Things are fine.
Its the odd frustration. Especially after a particularly hard day at work. (im a carpenter)
By "i have done well" i mean i have money and stability.

Clomipramine and klonopin
The clomipramine doesn't help
I've been on
Xanax
Effexor
Seroquel
Prozac

The only thing that sort've helps is the klonopin. I also take depakote for seizures which are brought on by anxiety. I'm fucked

If you go up and see my whole story, (or if you read already), youd see treatment came fairly recently.
Theres still the lingering well wtf could have been pain, combined with the fact its a little understood fact that untreated adult adhd is fucking devastating, and i spent 9 years of my adult life with it.
In general im actually doing great.
Theres some tone in my posts, too, because im very quick to anger when anyone suggests mental illness isnt a thing. So the emotion there adds to the overall "woe is me" feel in my posts.
Sorry you got caught in the crossfire.
>>671607238
/b/ doesn't like successful threads
>>671607499
No worries. You sound very confident in your course of treatment and if I had to guess from how coherent you are, its working very well. There's only progress from here, the past fades with new happy memories that begin to minimize the overwhelming feelings you used to experience. I wish you never had to go through that, but it is an impressive story
>>671607194
Thanks bro. Have this.
>>671607279
Well that was neat. Hope someone got something out of it.

Took EffexorXR for 3 years.
Some of the best years of my life. The sexual numbness sucked though. It was like having constant coke-dick.
Wish I could go back.
Im drug free now.
But I wish I had something for mild anxiety and mild depression that would not effect my dick.

It's not an amphetamine at all, no structural similarities and not the ssme mechanism of action either
>>671576902
Effexor for depression
Valium and Xanax as needed
Xyrem for narcolepsy
Dextroamphetine for wakeful ess but it gives me crazy anxiety
>>671595325
Lives have changed a lot with the proliferation of the internet and cell phones, tgeyve fucked up a lot of stuff, doctors used to give more happy drugs, and also alcoholism isn't socially acceptable anymore, it used to be okay to drink a ton now those people are put on pjlls, problems haven't changed the solutions have tho. O and the generation that are in there 20s today have unrealistic expectations for their lives, everyone wants to be an artist or an engineer but no one wants to make the canvas or steel piping
