Psychotropic medication discussion thread in Psychology & Therapy ·
So, I guess I’m not the only one dealing with this. Linda Ross, did you finally stop taking Calixt, and if so, what are you using as a substitute now?
SuperCrow, what exactly constitutes this "brilliant" doctor of yours—are we talking about a private psychologist or just some local GP?

I was on Calixt for a mere two weeks before I found myself five pounds heavier; by the second day alone, my appetite had become absolutely ravenous. I have since transitioned to Loquen, and the difference is night and day—my cravings for sweets and the urge to overeat when I am not even hungry have all but vanished. Despite maintaining a rigorous daily workout routine, the weight from Calixt continued to pile on regardless, even though I only took it right before bed. Does the medication work differently depending on whether one exercises or not? Or perhaps it simply has nothing to do with activity levels at all? It seems to me that it's purely down to individual biology; personally, every medication I take tends to push me toward weight gain rather than loss, even those hypnotics people claim help them slim down. For me, however, it always works in the opposite direction. 😢

Honestly, I haven't really dealt with any side effects from the Lockheed side of things, just a tiny bit of weight gain. But since I managed to drop 8 pounds thanks to the depression, I guess I’ve just ended up right back where I started...

That is precisely what interests me, because after taking Calisthenics, I gained 5 pounds in just two weeks; if John Doe has the same effect but causes less weight gain than Calisthenics, is there any truth to that? How is your appetite?
By the way, I was prescribed it for sleep issues; I spend my days playing Star Citizen, then take John Doe before bed, but it feels strange—as if my body is settling down while my mind remains in total chaos. It is as if I am successfully sedating my physical self without ever quieting my brain, which leaves me struggling to sleep because my thoughts simply refuse to settle...🤷 how has your experience been?

Has anyone here actually had any experience working with Loquen?

I need some guidance here.
For those of you currently on or previously prescribed Calixt, is there any truth to the rumors regarding rapid weight gain, even if it's just a single dose taken before bed?
I was prescribed this to help with my insomnia, but gaining weight is absolutely not an option for me since I compete in a sport where maintaining a specific weight class is critical.
I urgently need some insight from anyone who has been through this.
Thanks.
