I can't remember how much my Vyvanse costs because I met my out of pocket maximum this year on my insurance so my meds have been zero dollars for a while. I think with my insurance and before I meet the maximum out of pocket, it's like $30 a month. So like a buck a tablet. But I do have pretty good insurance for it being an HMO. It's a platinum plan so it's pretty dang good. It's the best I've been on by far. Blue Shield.

I think my asthma inhaler is more expensive then the Vyvanse. That one is like $50 but I only need a new one like twice a year.

Are you feeling depressed though? Because I don't think Abilify alone is supposed to be a treatment against depression.

For example, I take Effexor and Remeron (a potent combination and one that a psychiatrist has to take seriously because it can cause serotonin syndrome) plus my antipsychotics plus Xanax.


I don't know if since you technically have bipolar that you're supposed to avoid antidepressants. I think we may have talked about this on here before. But if you're experiencing depression, is there any way you can be on a drug like Effexor or Remeron?

Yeah I'm just thinking out loud in my layperson mind.

I forget about good RX because most of my prescriptions are cheap. I'll check that next time if I don't forget. But I just got one filled and it was zero dollars. I'll try to fill it again by the end of the year so it will be zero dollars then too.

Good RX was a lifesaver for me when I didn't have insurance...

I didn’t realize how old sassy looks. She looks worn and a bit tired.

GoodRX is a godsend for me. I still use it because I can't afford regular insurance. I have to pinch my pennies where i must.

Work was nice today. But working with these college kids, I can't help but feel like a total loser. They have their entire life ahead of them and here I am with nothing to show for all the hard work I've done. Writing is the only slice of achievement that I have with my two short stories.

I got a couple of likes on Match today. So I'll message them and we'll see where we go from there. Pretty surprised I didn't get a message back from one woman who specifically said her interest was consciousness and psychology. I mean, how could I have ****ed that up, am i right? lol No response from her. Wtf right? There was a 7 year difference though, but when we're both in our 30's who gives a ****.

Spotify just came out ith their summer playlist so that's cool.

Glad you’re getting more interest on match....was the one even online, sometimes people aren’t on every day or they are talking to someone else at the moment.....
