But if it manages my symptoms without causing weight gain, I'll be happy to take it everyday.
My daughter has been taking Saphris for about a year and a half. She hates the tongue numbness.. and takes it at night because it makes her so sleepy. BUT.. it is so incredibly effective at controlling her symptoms, that she wouldn't even consider going off of it. And no weight gain.

Quiet here today, what's everyone up to?

Getting cold here and raining, back to the typical Irish weather we know and hate.

Decided to just stop my depot so not going in next week to get it. Read that it's rare to have withdrawals from it so see no harm. Going to go cold turkey, wish me luck!

Didn't know you could get disposable ones, that sounds handy. Yeah I've had a bad experience with the refillable ones, with them leaking and all. If you're smoking a lot though you should probably invest in one, might prevent you getting a bad cough. I can't talk though, I've been smoking like a trooper this past while.

Haha yeah, I couldn't think of anything and was watching the cartoon Invader Zim. He's a character in it.

Hey everyone, I'm on a pass. I will be staying through I think. Idk, my sleep has been up and down. I'm on depakote instead of lamictal, it seems to be helping.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Topomax has worked very well for me as a migraine preventive.

Well good news on my end... We found our cat that ran off and been missing for 3 days. We manage to lure him with food. The poor thing scarf down 3 cans of cat food.
Thanks for this!

I'm watching a show about the amish community and supernatural occurrences... so apparently they think a girl who is talking to herself is talking to an "evil spirit" ... the devil. I'd hate to be mentally ill and be in a amish community. They SHUNNED her and somehow she died and they wouldn't give her a proper burial because they thought she was a witch. Ugh
