Zoloft is still the cheapest option, costing just about $23....

I ended up paying out of pocket for everything, and honestly, I don't regret a single cent because my wife basically saved my life. After that, we ran into this massive headache trying to get an antipsychotic covered through the medical board and insurance assessments—they kept denying us, claiming the diagnosis of major depression wasn't "serious enough" and that we didn't actually need the meds.

Things have changed since then, though, and even Locke is actually cheaper now! 😬

Robert Collins2, man, why don't you just go ahead and pop 600 mg of Locke one day and then give me a call, alright? ☕

I’d love to see how you'd even function at work, or drive a car, or just exist in general....

You're being such a drag, honestly. I can tell you're just getting pushed around by some nobody, but listen—just because you're acting like a tough guy online doesn't mean you've actually got anything on me, mentally or otherwise, you little troll. 😬

Honestly, you aren't even interesting anymore. ambermason16 correctly identified the breed of the dog in my avatar, and once my paycheck clears, we've already arranged to grab coffee. So there you go—feel free to be jealous. 😂😂

And you really are quite the character, aren't you? You're claiming you take 600 mg of Locke and still drive a car? I’d be a total wreck. Your bragging is on par with a middle schooler showing off about who can swallow more pills.

Look, just check my old meds versus what I’m popping right now, please, and for the love of God, find me someone—anybody—to talk to before I become some kind of internet troll menace. ☕

Drug-resistant? Oh, you bet your life it is. And don't you dare try telling me otherwise; I'm not some amateur. Your little pharmacist buddy can say whatever he wants while society tries to push some new cocktail of antidepressants and anxiety meds down my throat, but hey, maybe they should just hook me up to an IV drip and call it a day, right?

Anyway, let's pivot—what's the deal with psych meds? For those of you on Vallejo, how's that treating you? 😁

I'm on it, and it works fine. It doesn't leave you feeling jittery or wired like some other stuff does; actually, it's more the exact opposite.

It isn't fear-mongering, though. It’s just the reality of the situation.

Is it a Beagle? If so, I don't do coffee, but I could certainly use the cash. 👍 😬

Heh, I get it, Loquen totally messed with my head so my appetite went through the roof, but whatever, I ended up dropping 11 pounds anyway because of that bout of depression I had, so I basically just made up for it—plus, my boobs actually grew a little bit! 😁

Look, I’m gonna be real with you—there was a point where I was basically eating like a total animal. My body was absolutely wrecked, my skin looked yellowed and sickly, honestly I looked like some kind of zombie from a horror flick. I’m not saying that appetite is impossible to fight, though; you can definitely get a handle on it if you know what you're doing. As I started tapering down my doses, the cravings just kind of died down with them. I'm feeling awesome now, totally back on track... even if my boobs didn't quite make the comeback! 😁

siljo1 said:Lucky you when it comes to breastfeeding! Even though I tried that Loquacious last time, I’m thinking twice about taking it again because I've heard it can really spike your appetite.🤷

Well, isn't that increased appetite just a common side effect for so many different medications? If you find it impossible to stay on top of your cravings—much like me, right 🙄—why not just up your workout routine? Isn't that an easy way to offset any weight gain?

I'm totally with you, Roger Rodriguez! I definitely put on some pounds from taking Adderall, but once I started working out regularly, I ended up getting lean as hell!😂

Honestly, yeah, I’ll admit it—I am incredibly lazy, so I just opt for ultrasound cavitation. You literally just lie there while the fat melts away! 😍

It sounds almost too good to be true, doesn't it? 😍
I’m just as lazy as anyone else; I prefer acupuncture over hitting the gym, yet I still love to lecture people about fitness. 😂 Sure, it's possible, you just have to actually get moving!

It’s totally legit, man. It feels like she measures you right before and after the session, and boom—you’ve suddenly dropped like an inch or two off your waistline instantly. Plus, you hit up a lymphatic drainage massage afterward, and honestly, it’s a game changer! 😁

As soon as I’ve got enough cash stashed away, I’m definitely booking another round!

I’ve noticed that since starting psychotropic medication, my weight has gone up and my libido has taken a hit.

So, my chest has definitely filled out lately, and honestly, my libido has always been through the roof, but since I started tapering off the Velax, I’ve been noticing some pretty killer improvements in my circulation and just overall sensitivity down there, you know? ☕

Which specific genital areas are you referring to regarding improved circulation and sensitivity?

What's the actual purpose behind taking Loquacious?

It’s most commonly used to manage depression, manic episodes, and schizophrenia.
