Curiouser and curiouser

How is it I can take 13 pills at once every night and not overdose where as I take 13 of the same pill and I’m at risk of having my stomach pumped? ( not that I did that)

You better hope your pdoc or the pharmacist looked up all the Rx’s to see if there was a problem taking them all together.
If they didn’t, you might do it.

What 13 Rx’s you taking at once?

13? Holy shyt! What are you taking?

3 depakote
2 clozapine
Rozerem
Omeprazole
Doc-q-lace
Senna
sprintec
Folic acid

So only 11 pills, but still…

I suppose I take a lot of pills too. Most of them are not as serious as an AP. I take
1 tab Risperidone
2 tabs Trileptal
2 Tabs Magnesium
1 tab Doculace
1 Tab Vit E

I take all of it at night an hour before bed. The Risperidone and Trileptal make me tired.

Isn’t the answer kind of obvious? Too much concentration of one chemical in your system would overload that system. These AP’s are powerful drugs. So the doctor prescribes a safe dose of one certain chemical. If you take too much it puts too much concentration of that drug into your system so it would overload your system. Finding the right drug at the right dosage is part guessing by the doctor. He sees how much you can tolerate. If you go too high a dose, it could affect you negatively.

I take resperidone. i take 5 mg a night. It is a safe dose. If I took ten times that in one night it would flood my system and overwhelm it. It would not be safe. Maybe I’m misunderstanding your question.

Sleep aids, B-vitamins, Birth control pills, acid reducer, 2 laxatives, and oh there it is, depakote and clozapine.

If this is your pdoc’s Rx and they’re monitoring you, there is no hope od OD’ing on these pills if you take them as Rx’d.

By the way: Go ask Alice, when she’s ten feet tall.

Order the grand omelet with sausage and toast, the restaurant is always crowded.

I give this a plus one due to the title +1 :+1:

and so it was the proto-human being… with each and every new generation… growing curiouser and curiouser…

Azley you are a smart guy, I can tell from how you write. At least smart for a schizophrenic, many of us are less intelligent than average healthy people. U are smarter than me.

i wish I had as much going on up top as you do man…

The shoulders of giants… you gotta read what they all said and it will change how you think.

Carl Sagan’s Cosmos
Look for interviews of Richard Feynman
Christopher Hitchens and Sam Harris are good but anti-religious
Richard Dawkins is good anti-religious as well, but surprisingly sensitive.

Hmmm… dude there are a lot more out there. Those are my favorite. Vonnegut has excellent simplistic writing that will stretch you.

Fear and Loathing by Hunter S Thompson is probably one of the most unique things ever written. Hard if not impossible to imitate.

Fightclub the book by Chuck Palaniuck(sp) is also very easy to read.

Beyond that though… you have to entertain that you can… accept that you are going to fail at it and just keep going… and play the poet or author or public speaker.

Honestly, the most comprehensively smart people I’ve heard of are either the aforementioned names or people on this forum, + my sisters…

Like you’d be surprised… people really are just pretty dumb out there. It causes a lot of problems with us schizophrenics and we like to project our capacities onto them and consider them lazy in the mind… when really they are just to dumb to even be considered insensitive…

You all are beautiful people. Very open and curious and appreciative… lost in the world moreso than most for the lack of social connection and being understood… why??? BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY CARE! God damned only ones that actually care deeply about things and everybody else.

I love chuck palahniuk, read everything of his I can get my hands on. Great outside the box guy. I also used to love richard dawkins in debate or interview on youtube. And neil degrasse tyson was also one of my favorites. This was all before sz medications, when i was more interested in the world. More motivated.

I learn a lot from watching how those guys talk.

Yesterday it was a sentence from Richard Dawkins.

[1000s of creatures] Most beautiful, most wonderful. Evolution: the greatest show on Earth.

The fact that he said beautiful first and wonderful secondarily is polemic. It is meant to guide and steer your thinking involuntarily. Something important to be wary of, but also a powerful tool for a lecturer. Christopher Hitchen’s was considered and excellent polemicist. He bravely wielded that ■■■■ in intense debate under the scrutiny of all the relevant minds in the world regarding the subject.

The guy was a fun character to contemplate. A sell out classic to the idea of the drunken British intellectual. He’d do nothing but drink whiskey and smoke and banter to himself until he came out on the other side as who he was with the capacities that outmatch everyone else due to his ability to face his own inner critic and his intuitive sense of… sense.

Back to the Dawkins Statement though.

He says beautiful, to first establish in us to appreciate the recognizable visual beauty of all the different ugly species. It’s something we all know. How cool animals are to be around, how foreign but familiar, and how we are just drawn to them and like the life of it.

Then he leads us into what it is to dwell on them. He calls them wonderful and changes topic. It leads one to wonder. Why is it wonderful? Then you have a stronger potential to wonder of the beauty of the animals and really feel a great deal of love and intrigue. Something Richard Dawkins must have felt very strongly throughout his life… which is very cute and beautiful. An aspect of a man that is very much resonant with his childhood self. The evolutionary biologist’s fixation on the wild life of the world.

The wondrous beauty… does the same thing as well… The wondrous beauty of the animals. The last image in the mind is the animals and it’s framed up to have already had you brief over whatever sense of wonder and beauty you might feel for them. After the animals you are left expecting more information and there is no room for any dwell.

Yes, the wondrous animals… yes, the wondrous animals?.. the wondrous animals what? What did the wondrous animals do?

Language is very powerful. There are depths to it that are so far reaching that it’s impossible to even tell, but you can take comfort in knowing you’ve found your corner and voice when people start noticing how you speak as something noticeably different and highly functional. At that point it might be safe to say that you are beginning to find your voice… though that journey should never come to an end.
