The blondes in these shots look way better and much more natural

And honestly, Scarlet isn't exactly passing any beauty tests herself—everything about her looks so sharp and pointy.🙂
I mean, Merlinka probably turned a hundred years old yesterday!
Don't we have plenty of our own "typical" blondes right here in America?
Whether you're heading to a Kansas City Chiefs game or a Real Madrid match, it's worth putting on some makeup. Heck, maybe even for a Los Angeles Dodgers game too.
The true heart of our culture is a woman with strength and a heavy trunk in the back, not just a certain backside, wouldn't you agree?
Is beauty important? Of course it is! If it wasn't, everyone would look like total slobs.

Chris Kim7 said:I've been taking Klonopin for years, also right before bed, just a tiny dose—currently at 0.75 mg. That shouldn't really have anything to do with it.

I started Calixta because of the insomnia, and it helped there, though it's been four weeks now since I began. Still, my dreams are wild, and they aren't exactly pleasant...

A neuropsychiatrist once told me that plenty of people don't do well with Calixta because it leaves them feeling completely sedated all day. Apparently, that's a pretty common side effect...

I'm also noticing that I wake up feeling pretty groggy, my heart is racing a bit, and there's just this lingering sense of restlessness...

Well, look, it's hard to play prophet, isn't it? But if you ask me, it seems like Calixta just hasn't sat right with your system.
I used to have those dreams too—frequent, dark ones—but they've stopped for me now. I finally stumbled upon my own little formula for how to feel less depressed, less suicidal, while still sleeping soundly and waking up feeling actually fit.
The trouble is, some of the side effects from Calixta can overlap so much with the actual illness that it becomes incredibly difficult to tell what is truly causing what. Is it the condition, or the medication? It's a puzzle.
In my opinion, the best course of action is to have a real, honest conversation with your doctor about all of this.

Chris Kim7 said:I take 30 mg of Calixta right before bed, and it's not just the waking up part that sucks, I feel groggy and wiped out all damn day...

Are those really the only pills you're taking?
You shouldn't be feeling this way for such an extended period. Is it even safe to stay on them this long? I know everyone reacts differently, of course, but this seems excessive. Could it be some sort of interaction with another medication? Or perhaps your body just isn't responding quite right to the Calixt?
Do you feel any better when you aren't on the Calixt?

Chris Kim7 said:Thanks for the reply!

Man, that's a lot of weight to pack on that fast. I'm guessing it's either because you were eating everything in sight or it just slowed down your metabolism...

Did you have trouble sleeping before starting it? That's mainly what I'm trying to figure out, if it actually helps with sleep.

I'm still weighing my options with Calixt, because honestly, it feels pretty heavy during the day, kind of sedating, and leaves me feeling wiped out...

The general rule for Calixta is to take it in the evening. Or perhaps twice a day—once in the morning and once at night—depending on the specific dosage you've been prescribed. Personally, I take 45 mg at night and I don't feel completely wiped out the next morning. Then again, can one truly be an expert here? I am taking a whole mountain of other medications myself, so I suppose I cannot claim any absolute certainty.🤷

Michael Young8 said:Yeah, my brother is in school. He's a second grader 🙂. Mom really pushed him—she worked with him constantly while she was still around—but ever since she passed, his grades and his effort have just tanked. His teacher says he needs to practice reading, but I honestly have no clue how to make him actually sit down and do it.
He brings up how much he misses her all the time, but weirdly, he never showed any signs of depression or trauma after she died. Honestly, he took it surprisingly well. He’ll ask me about her—if she’s in heaven or where her grave is—but there aren't these big emotional outbursts or anything. Some people say maybe he doesn't get what death even means, but I think he understands it perfectly fine; he just processes things in a way that's hard to wrap my head around...
I’ve got plenty of relatives, but nobody wants to step up and get involved in this mess.
Truth is, I've got enough of my own baggage to deal with, but right now, my brother is my main concern. I’m terrified he’s going to end up falling behind for good because he gets sidelined so often by everyone else's responsibilities—mine and my dad's included...

You have certainly presented a profound dilemma for contemplation. Regrettably, you seem unable to both raise and guide your brother effectively, as you yourself have been deprived of a significant portion of your own development, regardless of your age.
Will you succeed? Of course, you will, but the question remains: how successful will it actually be?
The simplest solution would be to somehow distance the little guy from the internet or computers altogether.
Shut it all down. Cut the internet. Toss the computer out.
It sounds harsh, I know, but please, consider the long-term consequences for his upbringing versus the immediate impact of what he is doing now.
In that scenario, there is a very real possibility he might start reading more or engage in activities—even gaming—that are actually appropriate for his age.
As things stand, he has neither the choice nor the desire.
He must learn to express himself normally and master everything taught in a typical American second grade. Without that, he will be lost in time and space, and his future will be closed off before it even begins.
You have a sister; the two of you must fight for him.
As for your father, you can find short but highly effective assertiveness courses online—lessons on how to behave and communicate properly without being passive or aggressive. Read them. Learn them. Practice them. It isn't difficult or complicated at all.
By doing this, you will gain the upper hand over your father and always stay one step ahead of him. That realization alone builds confidence.
Essentially, you won't allow the household mood to happen by chance; instead, you will control the circumstances. For your own good.

Maria Hughes25 said:That’s certainly a possibility, you know, it just didn't immediately cross my mind!

But it really should have been.
Some women just radiate this kind of sex appeal that hits you immediately. But honestly? Beyond that initial impact, it often doesn't amount to much at all.
A person's actual worth goes so much deeper than mere physical attraction or having a "good look," you know? When we're young, we don't grasp the weight of responsibility the same way we do later on—once you start building a family and settling down. We let ourselves go wild back then, especially when it comes to how we judge the opposite sex. But once you reach a certain age, those superficial things just don't carry the same weight anymore.
Then there is intellectual beauty. It can radiate just as strongly as physical beauty, yet so many people are either blind to it or simply too uninterested to notice.
Being both beautiful and intelligent? Now, that is a winning combination.🙂

restlesseagle4 said:Where the hell can I pick up those earplugs? Aside from seeing a therapist, I’m losing my mind because I can't sleep—everything is too loud, from the honking outside to the neighbors slamming doors. It's driving me insane and I need those plugs ASAP. Where can I get them?
I've been dealing with this insomnia crap for forever. My doctor put me on some sleep aid for ten days, but it was useless; it worked for maybe three days max, then I spent seven straight nights wide awake even though I was supposed to be out cold. Then a coworker handed me some 10mg Diazepam, which helped for a few nights, but now even that isn't doing anything. I'm just lying there, wired and exhausted, knowing I have to work tomorrow. Every single workday is such a massive struggle when you're dealing with constant stress over money, the future, and everything else piled on top of you. I can't shut my brain off at night even when my body is completely dead; that damn brain of mine just runs at a hundred miles an hour and won't let me rest. Help—where do I buy those earplugs? I jump at every little sound. I am absolutely impossible when it comes to sleeping. 😢((((

Back in the day, 0.25mg of Xanax actually did the trick, but now even double the dose does nothing... I can't believe I've been cycling through pills for two or three years already. If someone had told me years ago that I'd end up like this, I would've called them crazy. But I guess life hits you with things you never see coming, and you should never say "never."

I actually already wrote a post and then deleted it regarding those earplugs and similar short-term fixes.
Just one question: don't you think someone would have thought of solving the problem that way a long time ago—total silence?!
Of course they have.
Why aren't doctors handing out earplugs like candy?
Clearly, something in this whole situation isn't adding up.
I didn't want to reply to @miligram because I haven't exactly left him with a positive impression. But, no matter.
When you put high-quality German-engineered earplugs in your ears, do you really think your ears know the difference between American and German quality?
Those are just standard industrial earplugs meant for workers in extreme noise environments; they aren't comfortable at all, especially not for wearing all night long.
I welcome any idea that might help solve these problems, but I really can't support this medical system approach of "just hold on until the experts figure it out."
In the end, we always have the option to ask our doctors about earplugs.

A textbook case of poor parenting. Seriously, how can you possibly claim he’s a good person? Just because he says so?
Character is defined by actions, not by endless clucking and noise. Unfortunately, his track record speaks volumes—it always has, and it always will, at this exact same pace. Nothing is going to change.
He isn't responsible for the root cause, but he is absolutely responsible for the consequences of everything that follows. He knows exactly what kind of nonsense he's pulling, and of course—if we actually believe in justice—it's high time he pays for his mistakes. Someone else has already paid enough for him.
There aren't any mental health issues here; it’s simply a total lack of self-respect.
By failing to raise him properly, his parents have unintentionally dumped a massive burden on their own shoulders, not to mention the crushing guilt.
The man just doesn't know how to process emotions. He wants to, truly, but he lacks the tools. He misinterprets what real life is like because he constantly compares it to his own narrow reality, which hasn't budged an inch.
You’ll pour all your strength and energy into him, and what will you get in return? Not success—just a disaster and a series of inappropriate, volatile reactions. He's impulsive; he doesn't think even seven minutes ahead. He doesn't care to.
It's unfortunate, as harsh as that sounds.
What exactly are we supposed to be treating when there isn't even a disease to begin with?!

redcrane22 said:I’m in the exact same boat. Honestly, I’m not sure why Bluzara thinks they’re identical.

That second part applies to me too. A single Helex or 10 mg of Diazepam is all it takes for me to drift off.

Well, I said almost the same thing—not a single medication is truly identical, even if the chemical composition and intended purpose suggest they should be! Isn't that just the way it goes?
Zan and Sanval (zolpidem tartrate) both have the primary goal of helping someone drift off to sleep. Now, Zan is supposed to keep a person asleep for a bit longer, though that isn't a guaranteed rule, is it?
The pharmaceutical company claims Zan doesn't cause dependency, which is absolute nonsense! How can they say that when certain drugs in the zaleplon class are actually banned in some places, like Canada?
As for Sanval, we all know how it works; it helps you fall asleep, and you take it right before bed, but it won't keep you asleep through the night, nor can it regulate those middle-of-the-night awakenings.
Food slows down its effects, too, so it isn't recommended to eat anything right before taking Sanval.
And let's not forget, Zan is a dangerous medication with quite a few side effects.
A very common occurrence is people mixing Zan with other medications, which results in massive drowsiness the next day. Seriously, you shouldn't be drinking anything at all while on Zan.
It also contains lactose, so for certain diabetics, it might not be the best choice either.
Taking it for any period longer than 14 days (!!!) provides absolutely no benefit whatsoever—you just end up with a mountain of side effects.☕

Jason Vaughn482 said:So, should I give it a shot? Would it actually be effective once the Sanval wears off?

I wouldn't bother; honestly, it's essentially just more of the same as Sanval. You might feel a slight shift at first—or maybe you won't—but really, what's the point in testing it? It’s still being manufactured by General Mills.

Lawrence Reyes46 said:So, what actually causes that decline? That mental slowing, the numbness, the lack of emotion... Is that just the nature of the illness itself, or is it the side effects from the medication? 🤔

Illness... it’s a heavy thing, isn't it? A truly heavy thing. Of course, medications can leave you feeling quite unwell—unsettled, even—but it is nothing compared to the actual weight of the disease itself. There is no comparison! And long-term treatment—when it is handled correctly, mind you, strictly by the book—can actually suppress the symptoms of schizophrenia. It can suppress them so effectively that, sometimes, you wouldn't even dream of suspecting that the person standing right in front of you is struggling with an illness at all. Would you even know? Could you tell? Often, you simply wouldn't.

redharbor11 said:I have a family member dealing with residual schizophrenia. He’s currently 58, but he’s been battling this since he was 21.

The early symptoms were pretty much what people have mentioned on here before—things like mania and such—but there was one thing I can't quite wrap my head around: a swelling at the back of his head, specifically near the cerebellum.
Back then, he saw this alternative practitioner who told him straight up that he had been poisoned, expressing genuine shock that he was even still alive. 😢
It sounds like a bizarre way to handle medical issues, but apparently, it worked: She told them to use a rabbit's head and wrap it in a cloth over the swollen area at the back of his head.
He kept it wrapped there for 24 hours, and when they finally removed it, the rabbit's head had supposedly sucked all the blood out of that swollen spot, causing the inflammation to vanish for good. These days, he is managed on Handol and Akineton.

Just to be clear, there are witnesses—family members who were right there with him—so this isn't just something he made up in his mind.
I'm wondering, is it actually possible🤷 for someone to have been poisoned, like this alternative healer (an elderly woman who uses bioenergy and things like that) claimed?
Also, what actually triggers schizophrenia, and what does "residual" specifically mean in a clinical sense? 😕
Thanks.

The exact causes of schizophrenia remain unknown, though there are various theories floating around; some don't hold much water, yet there aren't really any solid arguments against them either. So, everything remains an open question.
Residual simply means chronic.
As for that business with the animal head and the blood... honestly, I’m not even surprised anymore. I don't support voodoo techniques, but isn't everything ultimately about suggestion? And suggestion can be incredibly powerful—powerful enough to heal. The rabbit head is just a symbol; he could have tied a cloth around his head or a stick of wood for all I care. It’s the same thing.
If someone did poison him, how would anyone know when it happened or what substance was used?😕
Best regards.🙂
The issue is that perhaps someone wasn't poisoning him, but rather slowly administering toxins over time? Someone within the family? But I highly doubt such extreme scenarios.☕

casualharbor9 said:What used to be attempted a few decades ago via surgical scalpels and sucking up brain matter with pipettes, is now being done chemically. And the most common results of this "treatment"? Lifelong addicts who can't get out of bed or even lie down without a handful of pills, all while dealing with side effects hitting the liver, kidneys, and stomach... all to the sound of applause from psychiatrists at symposiums in the fanciest cities, which are organized and funded by pharmaceutical companies.

OCD: ... fear... fear... fear...
Our brains, much like those of our ancestors millions of years ago, experience fear and signal the body to react. The only difference is that today, fears are often caused by a cocktail of real and imaginary (or purely fictional) problems due to our increasing capacity for abstract thought. Consequently, the brain simply doesn't know which reaction to trigger, so it sends signals for random responses that look senseless to the outside world.
Instead of violently interrupting this confusing brain-body interaction with chemicals because it's the modern (and highly profitable) medical standard—even if it's essentially a system of trial and error—perhaps we should look at the causes of these situations from a biological-informatics perspective?

Let's weigh the illness (in this case, OCD) against the alternative. Is it better to live an entire life confined to a room by a crushing disease, or to step out into the sunlight with a dose of medication and all its consequences?
Aren't we all more or less aware of the side effects and risks when we swallow these various toxins with exotic names?! Of course we are (I certainly am).
I assume you don't carry the weight of mental illness on your shoulders, because if you did, your objectivity would be built on entirely different foundations—on the disease itself.
Medications attempt to substitute for hormones and the entire complex mechanism of how individual hormones flow and are stored. How successful that really is remains relative, but experience shows there is success there, unlike with lobotomies and pipettes.
The profits of certain corporations dictate nothing about the methods or paths used to sell drugs; I wouldn't even be surprised if mental disorders were intentionally induced just to boost pharmaceutical sales.
We have to live with those assumptions and manage our own health, setting aside hearsay and rumors because they don't help when I wake up in the middle of a heavy depression.
In that moment, the only thing that helps is the medication, and as long as that's the reality, I have no choice. The question of morality is commendable, but it isn't going to cure me.☕

Jason Vaughn482 said:I’m not taking it yet; I have it sitting right here at home, but once I start taking those small doses of Calixt, I get this creeping fear about combining it with Prozac. My doctor is incredibly vague, which is frustrating; she hasn't given me a straight answer on whether they can be mixed, even though I have the Prozac on hand because my GP prescribed it. I asked her, but nothing. And tonight was just another repeat of the struggle. Tell me, if I simply skip the sedative tonight, what am I supposed to do? I have Calixt and I have Prazine, but 25 mg of Prazine doesn't touch it, and I'm terrified that 50 mg might be overkill. I just want to sleep through the night without these interruptions. Right now, everything feels chaotic; I end up taking the sedative in the morning and sleeping until 10:00 AM... anyway, I have been tapering my Xanax, dropping from three 0.5 mg pills a day down to three 0.25 mg pills... perhaps that shift is part of why things feel so unsettled, since I've been doing that for the last eight days.

What exactly is your diagnosis?
What specifically did your doctor recommend you take?
Why on earth would you stop taking the Calixt?
I have so many questions... It is simply not safe to start playing chemist and experimenting with medications on your own. That is dangerous. Some of the combinations you are mentioning could potentially trigger an arrhythmia... it isn't a guarantee, but the risk is absolutely there.
Why won't you just reach out to your doctor about these issues?
You aren't going to solve anything by yourself... especially not like this.☕

Jason Vaughn482 said:No, the standard recommendation is 30 mg. I spent a whole year stuck on 15 mg, but it did absolutely nothing for my anxiety. Instead of bumping it up, though, I actually lowered it—mostly because I feel like it’s causing weight gain and leaving me feeling completely hungover, even though people claim higher doses don't do that... How have you found the weight situation, and are you actually satisfied with it overall? How long has this been your routine?
Yeah, I've been on Sanval for ages and it doesn't do much for me anymore, so I always supplement it with a bit of Calixta.

Yes, Callista is a solid medication. I've been using it for about three years now. Though, I can't really pin it all on just Callista and the hangover issue, since I'm on a few other prescriptions too.
I stopped taking Ambien ages ago; I wasn't even on it for very long. Zonadin took over from there (that's a song title!), but even I'm not taking Zonadin anymore, and I still sleep perfectly fine.

Jason Vaughn482 said:For me, Prozac actually worked quite well; I appreciate having a bit of an upward lift because otherwise, I feel completely numb. God, last night was an absolute nightmare. I went to bed with 10 mg of Zoloft and 7.5 mg of Eli Lilly, but... I ended up wide awake at 3:30 AM just staring at the ceiling until dawn. Then, at 6:00 AM, I had to take another 5 mg of Zoloft and 7.5 mg of Eli Lilly just to limp my way to 10:30. I absolutely loathe doing that. I think I'll ask my doctor if I can take Prozac in the morning and then this small dose of Eli Lilly at night just to help me sleep. I'm terrified of messing with the dosage on my own since I don't know how they interact. Just like you, I'm not dealing with depression; it's all anxiety, panic, and insomnia. 🙂

I am not sure how long you have been using Zoloft, but honestly, it loses its effectiveness after a while. And realistically? If your goal is actually getting some rest, that amount of Eli Lilly you're taking seems quite low. I am not suggesting you should increase it—absolutely not without medical advice—but a dose like that (I assume it's half of 15 mg?) is just too weak for that purpose.
I take 45 mg and I have no intention of cutting back, mostly because it helps me sleep. I don't know exactly how much of an impact the Eli Lilly has, but it certainly plays a role, doesn't it?🙂

David Vaughn75 said:almost every antipsychotic out there is going to spike your appetite

But isn't the kicker right there in those two little words... "most"?
I've been on the Associated Press meds for ages upon ages, and have I gained an ounce? Not a single one... or maybe just a tiny bit, who can say?😁
Breaking a bad habit is such an uphill battle, isn't it? And let's be honest, our diet is one of those hardest ones to fix.

urbanskipper4 said:So, that was how bad things got. My psychiatrist put me on the Associated Press, Zoloft. A 12 mg dose.
The anxiety? Gone. My OCD isn't running wild anymore, the depression isn't hitting quite as hard, and I actually feel more level-headed.
The only issue is my appetite has kicked up a notch, but I’m really hoping it’s just a temporary thing at the start. I've already put on about 6 or 7 pounds.
But honestly, when I look back at where I was before, I am incomparable—way better now.

Worst part of all though is that this stuff messes with my blood pressure, so I get these dizzy spells.
Best,

Less depression, more laughter.
They say laughter is medicine, right? Because when you're laughing, you simply can't feel fear. Who knows...
As for the appetite, that's really just a matter of habit. You aren't inherently hungrier because of a pill... a little self-control and everything will be fine.
At least things are better for someone...😉
Take care.🙂

casualharbor9 said:Honestly, it looks to me like she’s dealing with some serious self-doubt, and those manic tendencies might just be a defense mechanism from being bullied by everyone around her. Kids can be absolute monsters when they pick a target, right? It’s a cycle. I went through something pretty similar during my teenage years... How did I pull myself out of the gutter? Eventually, I just got sick of feeling like a complete loser. One day I just decided "no more Mr. Nice Guy." I threw myself into athletics, hit the gym until I actually built some muscle, found someone to love—which was a huge motivator—and moved on to high school where the social circle was totally different. And guess what? The new crowd embraced me completely. Now, I’m practically bursting with mental health* 😍.
Personally, I wouldn't touch psychiatric meds at such a young age; they often do more harm than good. A few honest, heartfelt talks with real friends usually go much further...

*Well... let's be real... during the dark moments, I can't exactly claim to be the happiest person alive. Some scars just never fully heal...

No. Absolutely not. There is simply no connection to manic behavior here whatsoever. Why must everyone insist on jumping to such extreme conclusions? It just isn't the case.
Can you honestly believe that? Is it really possible to just... decide? To simply wake up one morning and say, "You know what? I'm bored with this whole addiction thing, so I'm just going to stop being sick now"? It’s absurd! Truly! There is absolutely no way anyone can overcome an addiction like that—not by sheer willpower alone, and certainly not through such a reckless, nonsensical approach to a serious medical crisis. How can anyone even attempt to tackle a problem of this magnitude with such a flippant attitude? It’s impossible!
She simply isn't in a position to hit the gym right now, let alone fall head over heels in love or pick up some intense new sport. Isn't that exactly what was highlighted in the opening post? It was all laid out right there from the very beginning!
Where is the motivation in this OKP? It’s just... non-existent. Truly. And don't even get me started on the lack of any additional incentives! Does anyone else feel this void? Is there even a point? There simply isn't any drive here, nor are there any bonuses to make it worthwhile. Nothing!
Medication is quite literally her only lifeline at this stage. Without them, there isn't even a conversation to be had about psychotherapy. There simply is no other way forward. Is there any other path? I don't think so. There are no alternatives here.
It really isn't about her age! Honestly, why does everyone always jump to that conclusion? It’s such a tired argument, isn't it? Age is just a number, but people act like it's some kind of definitive barrier. It truly has nothing to do with how old she is.
When medications finally start doing their job—after what feels like an eternity of waiting, mind you—that’s usually when the real work begins. That’s when you transition into psychotherapy. And let’s be honest, isn't that the only way? Medication can stabilize things, sure, but it’s the therapy, combined with various self-help strategies, that actually tackles the lifestyle shifts required to make a change. It’s about attempting to dismantle those obsessive patterns that just won't quit interfering with a normal life. Can one truly find peace without addressing the root through such dedicated effort? I sincerely believe it is the only path toward meaningful transformation.
I see everyone here speculating about bullying, harassment, parental neglect, and all that other stuff... but let's be honest, isn't it all just guesswork? We are making assumptions. Does anyone actually know what the specific trigger was in that exact moment? No. In fact, there might not even have been a single trigger at all! That is precisely why they call it a "silent illness," isn't it? It creeps up on you when you least expect it.
We keep feeding her nothing but conflicting information, and instead of actually sharing some real experiences, the whole thing just turns into The Muppet Show. It’s honestly ridiculous... how can anyone expect clarity when we're acting like this? Truly unserious.

shadowbadger32 said:Wait, are you guys just now noticing this?
Man. What really stuck out to me was that bit about "school psychologists haven't done anything." Look, they didn't give birth to this kid, and they aren't responsible for them—not like the parents who spend 20 hours a day watching them. I guess it’s no wonder the little one turned out this way. If you had written the whole story about your marriage and your life, we'd probably understand why things ended up like this.
I honestly don't think she can heal while she's still in that environment or that family where the issues started. There’s maybe very little chance.

No, that simply isn't true. One really ought to dig deeper into the actual causes of these conditions instead of just scribbling down every random thought that comes to mind.
The root causes of OCD are not fully understood. That is an absolute, definitive truth, and anyone suffering from such a disorder will tell you the same thing.
The best course of action is to educate oneself and not miss even a single scrap of information. The more one knows, the easier it becomes to accept certain realities.
There is absolutely no point in criticizing the parents; while they might be involved, they aren't necessarily the cause. So much of it depends on an individual's temperament, which shifts based on their circumstances.
@granitetrucker7... please, look into the work of Jeffrey M. Schwartz, as he is one of the foremost authorities regarding the treatment of OCD.
The technique is known as response prevention—essentially, how to stop a compulsion and replace it with something new, something constructive.
This technique actually works, and one shouldn't disregard any method, including this one.
Listen... obsessions will shift, and compulsions will too. Do not let any change in behavior catch you off guard. I know you are prepared and aware of everything, but this disorder is quite insidious and unpredictable.
I am praying that you all find enough strength to get through this.🙄
