What is something you'd like to warn people about?

It can be serious. It can be silly.

Mine is:

Don't eat six coconut date rolls in one sitting because you could potentially spend the rest of the day moaning with a stomach ache.

I'm afraid of sugesting heavy medication, because you should consult with your shrink, your therapists, your priest, your inmediate and distant family, your friends, your neighboors and aquaintances first. However I feel daring today. It's called Alka-Seltzer. Don't tell anyone I recommended it. I don't want to get in trouble.

When it comes to mental illness, don't let labels define you. A diagnosis is merely a label. Focus on getting better and you will be happier.

Those who focus too much on labels are often the least happy. Fix the symptoms, not the label.

A real warning. I do my best to offer the best advise my experience can provide. I'm not a poster child of wellness so it's best to take what I say with that in mind.

Another warning.

I avoid any and all advocacy for or against medications. Right now, I could say something anti med and I'm being very careful, because I don't want someone to take my advice to their detriment. I've taken some very bad advise from some not so well meaning people. Make sure any important decisions you make are done while stable. Make sure they are YOUR decisions.
Thanks for this!

and on that note, don't let people tell you what you can and can not have for certain meals.

meaning, if you want fries for breakfast, for instance, you can have them. (no one should tell you you can't)

Do not get your meds in bottles if you can't remember when or if you took them.

I get get mine in a bubble pack now after more than a few trips to psychosis land.

(I agree about bubble packs - and pharmacies here will do it for free)

Don't change your meds before talking to your doctor.

NO SEX ALLOWED for less than 15 minutes. Failure to comply constitutes a violation of Code 6969.
Punishable by blushing, shame and lame excuses.
Repeat offenders will be banned pending a shrink evaluation.

Don't make love in the backyard. Love is blind but the neighbors ain't.

If caffine makes you jumpy, and unable to sleep, just don't drink any caffeinated beverages ever, even though you really want to.
