lithium?

lithium is an anti-psychotic that had the same affect on me. lithium is actually one of the biggest reasons i had no interest in meds after trying them when i was a teen. they prescribed me way too much all i did was sleep, i was like a zombie and actually had lithium poisoning and fainted a few times from it.

this shyt is hard man, people on the outside of this shyt don’t realize that there’s so much involved and stresses within the help part. reaching out for help has always been the easiest part for me, it’s the things that come after that are the hardest.. the whole med trial and error, med cocktails etc

The sleepiness happened to me when they put me on Latuda and had me taking it in the mornings with Lamictil. It was miserable. But then I moved the Latuda to night time so I'm fine with the day time and go to sleep even easier at night. Keep that in mind if they put you on that. I was diagnosed with bipolar/infrequent manic episodes/light anxiety so it seems as if we are similar although part of me thinks the episodes were due to having bad weed since I was high every time shyt went south. Now I'm that clean I don't know if I'm feeling normal because of the meds or because I'm off weed so it's kinda confusing

Sorry to hear that about your relationship.

I'll be at the MGM a bunch since it'll be closer than the reservations for me by a good 25/30 minutes.

Look on the bright side, if it's that close you won't mind leaving if u win or lose quick.

For me, if I make that hour whip, I want to stay at least 5 hours and that leads to terrible decision making.

where you live?

and yeah that’s how i’ve felt on several occasions, making the hour plus drive there, instantly winning then staying cause i wanna make the drive worth it, but on the other hand there’s been more than a handful of times i can count i would go before leaving my boyfriends and basically draining my bank account. or going, losing for a few hours, getting s real nice hit then blowing it all back. when i’m there it’s like i become hypnotized, i gamble until i’m broke. if i’m losing then make my losses back plus double, ill gamble it all away again chasing the eurphoric feelings that comes with getting a nice bonus. i just gotta avoid it, at least for now.

I think it was Risperidone, I googled schizo medications and the name looked familiar so most likely that was it.

Do your research

Make sure what they gave you is for what you have

Plus make sure the dosing is right for your weight

 

[str8up]

Not usually. I actually am headed to the doc Friday for manic depression/anxiety and this is the only time I've ever been worried about what they might give me.

I dont think its weird at all

Prescription drugs have really adverse side effects

I'm in a Hartford county suburb.

The wheel of fortune and monopoly slots have treated me well recently but I keep chasing that next "bonus". I get a ton of shytty spins, figure it's gonna hit, it hits then I think it's gonna get hot

I def get the trance too.

It helps when I have a hotel room there because I can just go and take a break. I get a lot of free offers

There's side effects to everything. You must've been on web.md looking at stuff. Just take it and if you ain't feeling right get off it. Usually cave people don't have problems downing pills :HeyMarlonSayCheese:
