I call it “sanity in a handful”
I know right?! I was just thinking about my delusions… How do I know if they’re gone?
Lol well I know I’m better then I use to be. I’m a little depressed but also relieved my delusions are pretty much gone. my hallucinations are gone, my anxiety is soooo much better, mood overall is better, my cognition has improved, I can feel my body naturally in control again, and I don’t obsess on things anymore so much. Thanks to these 5 pills.
I just wonder how the F these pieces of pharmaceutical chemicals can be so effective just by swallowing.
All 5 are important, if I didn’t take any of the 1/5 I’d feel really uncomfortable. But as it stands these pills are really helping and it’s mind boggling to me
What were your delusions?? I guess I know they’re gone cuz I’ve made peace with the fact it wasn’t real.
I guess I had one where my mom was a replica of herself placed by the military. There’s this Sargent that’s always out to get me. I don’t know if it’s true or not, because there was a real Sargent after me when we were in the military. Or my husband I should say.
Hmm I’ve thought my therapist was my mom and psychiatrist my dad and I was an experiment and everyone In my life was a paid actor. I also thought I was an alien and everyone was a robot and I was meant to be brought back to my home planet in dec 21 2012. But most of all I thought I was the chosen one. All my delusions were grandiose probably because my “ego” and “sense of identity” have been attacked many times in my life. So I compensated with grandiosity. God made the most sense to me. But now I’m just like chilling not worrying just happy with life it’s been quite a turnaround. I have pretty good perspective now that even my deepest delusions were delusions. Sometimes I wish they were true but pretty much know they weren’t. O well.
That’s great you found a good balance. I hope I can get there soon. My anxiety is down, so that’s a plus.
The half of the pill wasn’t cut at the score… Shame on you lol . Is that Klonopin?
Lol yes it was I split it with my fingers. Maybe a bit uneven.
I think my abilify looks very similar to your blue pill there. It is interesting how such small pills can have such an impact on our brains.
Ability is actually the pink! Blue is Zoloft
Your my hand twin!! Were gonna be a millionaires!!! (It’s from friends?)
I took drugs since I was 13 and now im taking a different type drug zyprexa
I agree with you! I take one Zyprexa pill in the early morning, and it boggles my mind that it’s what’s keeping me sane. That one little pill is a miracle.
I take Lexapro and Lamictal at night along with Melatonin, and that helps me sleep. Those tiny pills make a huge difference.
I went to through hell and back with meds. I’ve got a few more weeks for perphenazine to totally kick in.
Sanity is relative, I concentrate on being functional.
the meds are a suppressant
I’ve had miraculous results with meds. In some ways it suppresses. In other ways it drives me forward. When I was gone from the board I thought about yin and yang a lot. I think just like a lot of facets of life, you need a yin and yang of your position naturally in life in juxtaposition with the directions your meds put you in. Sorry for confusing vocabulary but until I found the right balance I was not functional. Now I can do more but my mind tells me I can do less. But it’s more realistic and grounded. I am fairly functional but I do what I have to. And every day I do a little bit more.
