I'm sorry you are struggling.

Between my brother passing, me not getting the financial aid for school this whole school year, being in the ER, my mental health and not having my gabapentin for a month cuz i missed the pdoc appt, my dad needing medical attention, family drama on my dads side due to my brother passing, emotional abuse from my mom this past week when my sis was here, my ex....i just need a big break.

My chest is hurting now. I tried calling people i know and no one has answered tonight. At least im not drinking.

I noticed that when I had a snack between breakfast and lunch I felt a bit better so maybe I'm not eating enough with it...? Idk.

I hope the flu like side effects don't last
long, if those are the side effects. Sounds like about the right kind of food as you had for breakfast. I hope you'll feel a lot better soon.

If I keep having the flu like side effects and they don't go away I just will have to tell my doctor I can't take the pills. I'll try having a heartier breakfast tomorrow maybe that'll help.

Okay, I did. I guess I'm feeling like it's bad for me...like poison or something. But I did take it cause my wife wasn't going to have it any other way

I feel like I've kind of plateaued in my weight loss. I mean my clothes are very baggy now but it just feels like it's taking forever to lose the rest of the weight. I kind of think it may have something to do with the Invega but I can't get off it. If I got off that I'd lose my damn mind and go back to being batshit crazy and delusional all the time.

Maybe I'm still losing just at a slower rate and don't realize it? Idk, I certainly hope so. Because I don't eat any junk food anymore

I googled it and invega, in the long term, makes people gain about 5lbs. That isn't bad at all. However, we all have different metabolisms. Antipsychotics are legendary for weight gain. A lot of meds are for all it's worth. To be honest, I prefer a woman with something to grab on to.

Its just like how steve jobs introduced the very first iphone at the Apple keynote in 2007.

Its revolutionary. Its an ipod, ipad, computer, etc all in one. I do everything on my phone. The only time i ever use my computer anymore is to skype and sometimes school cuz i have to type papers. I do EVERYTHING AND I MEAN EVERYTHING on my phone.

I prefer a laptop when using the forums and web browsing because I can type about 40 words per minute.

There's skulls in the traffic lights. There are messages in the music. People are watching me. They're keeping tabs on me waiting to get to me experimenting on me trying to read my thoughts. The mirror is stealing my reflection it's an alternate world stealing it from me using it as my own.

Why won't this **** stop why am I so special what is with me why do they want me so bad.

That sucks. Sorry you're feeling like poop, Junkdna

How's the apartment hunt going? Could you possibly find an old house with a studio built into it? I live in a college area and there's tons of houses like that around here. You just need one with a good window for Toby.

Do you think this could be a symptom of psychosis? For me, I would get that feeling and try to attach it to unhinged causes and effects to explain the dappled world surrounding me. No matter how I thought of the world, and how perfect things were extrernal to myself, something was always very wrong.

I remember when I went on an antidepressant for the first time. Wow. To go from a sensitive soul to feeling nothing at all was... well, mind numbing, but also enlightening. For the first time i was able to say, "It was all just a feeling"

You seem to be doing a lot better now that you have been taking your meds regularly.

You should talk with your doctor as SOON as possible.

Aug 24, 2017, 08:47 PM

SP, i have two more chapters left in wise man's fear. From chapter 100 on it gets pretty good. I'm glad i stuck with it.

As soon as he left the university things got good. God that was taking forever to get a break from that old place!

Do you tell your Pdoc about this? It sounds like you might benefit from a med change if you are still having symptoms.

newtus · Aug 24, 2017, 08:49 PM

I just spent 2 hours on the phone. Finally 2 people said i could call them. I vented about everything. One person just listened. The other gave advice and said positive stuff.

ofthevalley · Aug 24, 2017, 08:52 PM

That's great Newtus. I'm glad you found some people to talk to.

Gr3tta_0 · Aug 24, 2017, 08:53 PM
