It's so much easier to blame everything around you rather than recognize your situation, nut up and change it. There's always a reason why things are going wrong and it's never the person in question's fault. No such thing as accountability anymore.
And nobody takes their medication. Most people with mental issues think they know more then the dr's, it's so fucking annoying.
Yeah when you're dealing with medications that are literally altering your brain chemistry in a big way it's not really a 'oh a I feel better today I think I'm going to skip a dose' kind of decision.
your right about that, that's one of the reason for outburts i think....people in these areas think cause they are taking there meds feel right, they don't take into account that the med are for a sometime short period of time, when the euphoric of the meds wears off....here it comes again....mental health issues are in a revolving door......that's why the meds, to keep you on a lvl playing field, they also tell you to speak to a professional, which most don't take into account as well, always always go to your doctor aka therapist, psycologist (sp) etc, this is well help as well.......
They had me on Zoloft almost a year and it did nothing for me. They tried putting me on Buspar for my anxiety and I took my first pill and regretted it instantly. Nausea, light headed, BP dropped like crazy. @BudmanTX yeah I agree completely. most family practioners don't really grasp those medications or everything revolving them so they'll look up common treatments from their big book and prescribe away without really understanding the whole picture, unless you're dealing with an actual psychologist and even then, my last adventure with a psychiatrist left a bad taste in my mouth. I smoke weed, meditate, and excersise. I think medications can be a huge game changer for a lot of people but it should never be an out the gate first option in my opinion. I've talked to people who say they're depressed and you look at their day to day life and no fuckin wonder. You don't need medication you need to go outside and actually do something with your body and mind.
i was on prozac years ago, everyone said i was much easier to get along with....but so is a potted plant...i couldn't carve, couldn't do leather work....not that i lost the ability, i lost the desire. so i quit it, and after a couple of months i was a creative, hard to get along with prick again. the lexapro seems to be a happy medium. i occasionally have days where i feel like a turnip, but i'm not sure how much of that is the meds fault, and how much of it's just getting old.
Oh my, I forgot. You had to deal with that side of it to.Yup it's like here let me show you how to cut correctly. My favorite was them cutting themselves, showing up for sutures and then shrieking over not enough local
Exactly
I played doctor as a kid.....it was fun
I'm such a pussy I need a local to get a local.Yup it's like here let me show you how to cut correctly. My favorite was them cutting themselves, showing up for sutures and then shrieking over not enough local
You're doing better than me. Show me a picture of a needle and I'll start feeling woozy.I'm such a pussy I need a local to get a local.
Last month a hand surgeon gave me a shot in the palm of my hand as I have a condition with one of my fingers called "Triggering".
He said "this will hurt quite a bit" & I asked for a local first - he gazes up and down my arms (Tattoo's) & says "Really?"
Yeah, I'd make a terrible dope addict cause I can't watch so I'd need a "second" to administer.
Is she going to caulk somebody's crack with that thing or what?
Meet nurse liz, she'll give you a spinal tap, and do some minor home repair.
My Dr is a client of mine, I did a huge addition for him years ago, and now if I go in for stitches or something like that I insist he lets me help, he's really cool and has shown up how to do shots, stitches, and some other stuff. But he still charges for the full treatment, ohh well it's good knowledge.
