Went to my IOP meeting and they gave us these sheets of paper with drugs, their names, and how they effect you. I thought it was kinda interesting and figured I'd share it with you guys. I don't think it's triggering, but if it is, I apologize in advance. I'd never intentionally cause y'all to have triggering thoughts.

Went to my IOP meeting and we were given a sheet with different drugs, their side effects, and even method of use on it. I found it to be pretty interesting and thought I'd post it here for others to see. I hope it's not triggering in any way but if it is I apologize in advance.
