I’m ****ing pissed. At work there was a quote I was helping on as I was new and needed experience and I thought it was done as someone moved it to completed and I found out it wasn’t done and I had to quickly fix it and send it out so anyway it’s done and I don’t trust my coworkers anymore.

I want to take a Valium and a few tokes off a joint. The last time I smoked weed was over 10 years ago. I'm wondering if we will ever get to smoke again. Cigarettes and vape.

I wish I could smoke still. I like it, I always got into "comedian mode" when I smoked weed.

TNB. Trust No *****.

K I need to be less trusting. I open up and get friendly and am too nice to everyone. You’d think with my paranoia I was closed off but I like to believe the best in people.

Screw that.

I never had friends so I never smoke weed as a teenager or even 20s. It was illegal still.

It’s legal now, but my doc says it’s not a good idea to try.

One day I want to try a gummy or something. But it scares me what could happen.

I slept pretty well last night. Meds are making me sleep at least so I’m not up all night like this.

I still feel like my thoughts are being blocked and stolen and I’m destined for greatness. But I can recognize that it’s not logical.

Ugh this sucks.

In regards to the Abilify - do you know that doses above 15 mg are considered to have the antipsychotic properties?

That is, doses under 15 mg are usually reserved for depression only. Then, above 15 mg, it becomes more of an antipsychotic.


Perhaps you need a higher dose.


Not prescribing, of course, but letting you know what my experience has been with Abilify.

I'm only on 15 mg now of Abilify but that's because I use it exclusively for depression.

The doc is slowly getting me up. I’m currently on 5mg Lexapro (going down), 10mg abilify (going up), and 80mg Latuda.

We’re playing by ear how to medicate me.

The closer it gets to my doctor appointment (GP/PCP) the more anxious I get. I usually take a xanax or two before going to see her but since I am going for BP I need the results to be accurate. It's going to be a Zoom call from her office so her office staff will still take BP, vitals, whatever. I'm just not going to let them weigh me. I weighed myself this morning and they can take my word for it. Otherwise I don't know why I am so anxious about this appointment. Just getting older. Getting more stuff wrong with me.

I can believe it. Where I live in CA it is like that. Well we aren't usually in the negative. But it can be 28 degrees in the morning and 80 in the afternoon.

Gotcha. Makes sense that you'd want to be gradual with it. Good luck with it!
