Thorazine, I'm at the target dose now though so hopefully I adjust to it soon

Hope the fog gets better and glad you're sleeping!

I smoked a little bit of great white shark sativa strain 5% THC and 10% CBD. Mixed it with temple hybrid 11% CBD strain. Then I took 50mg CBD capsule.

Very nice.

Weed used to give me panic attacks but I just needed to find the right strains or wait until I was more aware.

Slightly afraid of psychosis though. Idk just cuz it's at the end of my invega injection.
Thanks for this!

I can't believe my mom made it up that mountain with me. I was behind her the whole time making sure she was ok. She took her beta blocker this time. If she didn't, I'm 100% sure she would have had heart palpitations and passed out.

So her heart condition is getting better the longer she takes beta blockers. And her breast cancer prognosis is good. That great!

Ima take that tea kettle back. It's not even a good product design. When u pick it up by the handle it triggers the spout to open. You cant pick it up without doing that. Plus it doesnt whistle.

Thorazine was the very first antipsychotic that was mixed with an antihistamine, you'll probably gain a tolerance with it soon like I did with Benadryl. Sorry you're going through this, friend.

Oh I'm not taking it for sleep so I shouldn't have any issues

Oddly enough it's the Abilify that makes me super tired during the day

It's been about 3 days on the 400mg, I started on 200mg 2 weeks ago. I seem to do very well with it, it's helped me a lot thus far, hopefully it continues

Hmm... If I take Geodon before 5 then it ruins the rest of my day b/c I get too tired. I don't know what that is. What time are you taking it? How long have you been taking it?

Regarding Trileptal, still fogginess, but other than that absolutely great bc I'm not having as many sleep issues. My pdoc wanted me to take Depakote, but I said let's try Trileptal because it works for you and two close friends, and I'm happy with almost no side effects.
Thanks for this!

I take the abilify @8 in the morning. 10mg, I've only been on it a week and a half so maybe it takes time to adjust

I'm glad things are going well with the Trileptal. I had initially switched from Depakote over to it due to weight gain on the Depakote and it's been a great med for me

So.... dating update:
The woman I've been talking to, I offered a date and she can't on the weekends because of children. :-/ I can't date on the weekdays so I feel like a terrible person.

I messaged a "physician and after reading her entire profile I deduced she must be a pdoc. I sent her a message anyways. I'm sure we could learn from each other and in my profile I'm asking for someone that is psychologically savvy.

I messaged another woman but I wonder if that was wise... My entire psychosis happened at my university and I believe she is a university professor where I graduated. My hometown is a hot oven, and everytime I touch it I get burnt. I'm into education and she is obviously, and she read my profile and saw my pictures and doesn't recognize me. Do I ghost her if she responds? My story is a pretty big whopper that a lot of gossipers know about. I think I should just move on.

If it's making you tired then I'd take it near your bed time.

I don't mind the tiredness, it will probably get better. It usually does when I'm on new meds. I'd honestly be afraid to take it at night with my other meds because I'd probably never wake up again lol
