You might benefit from Cogentin. It's a side effect drug that counters akithasia which is a common side effect from antipsychotics and other prescription drugs for mental health. If this is the case, then a benzo will probably do nothing. Cogentin is dirt cheap and doctors don't have a problem prescribing it.
Thanks for this!

Thanks Day. I'm already on Cogentin, since a year I think. But thank you!

Good morning. Having a rough day already. Sometimes I wonder why I bother.
What's everyone got going on? I have to run to the bank but that's it.

Yep, and it doesn't seem to work on me. But at home I still took it every night. I haven't tried magnesium though. Thanks for the suggestion!

I hope the day gets better. I think the coffee was decaf and I really need the real thing in the morning. Blah.

But I hope your day gets much, much better.
Thanks for this!

I think I'm going to save up and get myself a personalized baseball bat from the Louisville Slugger museum (online) I wanted to go there when I lived there but never got around to it.

I'm sorry you're lonely. I get lonely here too, even with so many people around. I hope you'll feel better soon.

I hope everyone gets their coffee soon! I just myself a diet coke. I don't know why they're so great, but they are.
Thanks for this!

Oh no! I didn't see this post before. I'd be frantic to fix it if it were me. Luckily my friend went out to get me a new tank the day I was last brought to the hospital. March 12. I hope you got your vape fixed!

Oh good! That's a relief. Don't​ want you to pick up cigarettes instead of your vape! I almost did that in March before I was taken inpatient. Because I was having problems with my tanks.
