Never go without your meds

I keep messing up. I let my rxs go without refill. It has to stop. I’m out of effexor and depressed as all hell. It’s rainy here. From here on out I’m making sure I have every med I need. So don’t do what I’ve done to yourself. Happy Thanksgiving

Thanks roxanna. That’s good advice. I normally do my best to take all my meds.

I know how your feeling. I had to call my refill in on my invega and they had to order it, this was Saturday… Ugh it will be Wednesday before I get it.

I’ve been without my Valium a couple of times and experienced psychosis mood swings not just anxiety and the withdrawal period seemed endless. Now I’m only on 2 mg and my pdoc said I could one day take it as a prn only. I don’t know: should I try this? I had a doctor once say it was bad for your body to be on a benzo long term. Ever heard that?

I think it depends on the Dr and the situation. I’ve been on them for 12 years.

If I go just one day without Seroquel, I’ll go withdrawal: slight stomach pain, generally weak lethargic thing. Go back on Seroquel, sleep well and then wake up feeling superb. Superb.

Slow that’s how I am too. If I go without my meds one day it’s really bad. here’s to tomorrow if it breaks

You can go to whatever Pharmacy you go to and pick up a supply, in-person. Mine prefers to mail the re-fills. But for a full year, I picked up re-fills in-person because, for some reason, the mail service kept returning to sender due to zip code confusion, I guess.

Same. I always take my meds no matter how expensive they are.
