Roll Call 24

I have 3 kids. Two girls ages 18 & 19. My son is 21. My 18 year old is out with friends. My 19 year old is on the phone. My son is fixing to leave for work. He works nights. It's 9:30pm here in Dallas.

My son loves playing those video games too. He connects online through a head set and plays with people who live all over. He can spend hours doing that. Lol!

Oh, ok. I only have the one, who is spoiled rotten. I really respect women that can handle more than one. I'm the youngest of eight and my poor mom still had five at home when my dad died. Idk how she did it...

Yeah that's what my son does too! Their in there giggling...

That's a big family Both my girls will be moving off to colleges an hour away from me after summer is over. My son says he's getting his own apartment then too. It'll be strange not having my kids around on a daily basis.

wel....i went to work...and it sucked....the bookkeeper told me not to hate life and asked if i was going to make it.....i guess i looked sad....but the voices are talking....it hard to smile when thats going on....i wanted to leave onbreak but i stuck it thru....kept feeling paranoid and tried to fake smilemore....well T texted me to just breathe anditwill pass....then he texted at 9 to ask how it was going but i left my phone in the car....i got off at 10....and texted him but i think hes asleep....having a hard time ttakeing my meds.....just wanna go to bed and not deal wiht it

Yeah we have a big family. My son was living with his dad when I had a breakdown he moved in with him. But he's back home bc his dad and his dad's other son tricked my son into eating brownies laced with weed. My son's friend though said my son knew, but my son denies he knew. Idk who to believe, but I just don't feel comfortable having him in that environment.

It was really hard when he first left, but I did adjust.

I'm not even getting a buzz. I wonder if the meds have something to do with it...

I'm sorry work was such a struggle for you. I hope you will take your meds. From what you've said before things are better for you when you DO take your meds

Your son deserves to live in a safe environment. I'm so sorry that happened to him at his dad's.

I hope u take ur meds. Just take them tonight and rethink taking them tomorrow?

i just...........

dont think i can..........

i cant deal with them.........

getting upset......

i already feel bad enough

i tried........at least

If you take your meds the voices will shut up! Please take them. You know your T would want you to take them.

I've gained like 40 pounds while on zyprexa and lost almost 20 pounds while taking metformin. I also been fluctuating with my weight because I've been on and off them lately. I just have to watch what I eat and exercise. The medication makes me hungry faster and god the food craving is strong. It's like I can't stop eating.

The voices may get upset in the beginning but they will soon fade away. You deserve to get some peace and quiet.

medicalfox: I've been thinking about you and wondering how you're doing. Did you move yet?

Will u be able to sleep without them?

well T texted me back and asked if i neeed help....i said yes plz and he called me......so i took them.....he said they will be gone in the morning when i wake up........i trust him.........im so glad i have my T.........he is so supportive and helpful........i feel lucky.....i took my meds so thats good but now they are mad and upset at me.......i think im gonna listen to music and then go to bed.....

thanks guys for encouraging me......maybe one day in the future i will be able to do it on my own

i can fall asleep but i wont stay asleep all night..il wake up in the middle of the night wide awake...thats if i dont take the meds

I am so proud of you for taking your meds You have a great T!

Now that you took them you will get a good night's sleep

When I was outta risperdal and extremely paranoid and not sleeping, I took zyprexa for 3 days. By the third day I was seriously eating like every 2 hours. I admire that u only gained 40lbs!

Junkdna i am so happy for you you toughed it out and made it through work! And you took your meds! The voices can stuff it. Junk rules.
