And staying healthy? That’s becoming an expensive hobby, too—unbelievable.

Oh, absolutely. But man, it pays off—provided both the client and the therapist are actually fired up about it. You have to put in the work. It’s a grind, honestly. A total blood, sweat, and tears kind of job.

Oh, yeah, I couldn't agree more on that one.😉

I'm an F-22 and Risset literally saved my life. People whining about medication are just straight-up idiots. I take my stuff just to quiet the voices. Don't worry, I'm not abusing them or anything—just keeping it chill. I'm hanging in there.

It’s always easy to play the expert when it’s someone else's skin in the game—but the second it hits home, suddenly everyone’s crying for help!👍

I have a quick question. I've been taking Xanax 0.25 three times a day for about a year now, but I just realized I'm out of my prescription. I was wondering if I could take an equivalent dose of Ativan just to get me through until tomorrow when my doctor is back in the office. Thanks for any help... 🙂

Well, I'm back! 😁

So, about ten days ago, I ended up spending four days checked into the psych ward. I told my psychiatrist that I was honestly just fed up with the whole routine—just lying in bed all day, popping pills, smoking, and dealing with the exact same monotony every single day. Plus, sleep is basically non-existent because there are two other people in the room who just snore through everything.😳

I mean, I could be at home doing the exact same thing and taking these same meds, so what’s really the difference? 🤷
And yet, here I am again, back in this little "sanctuary." 🙂

Right now, my regimen includes Zoloft (which I actually think is great, since I haven't felt any side effects from it), Lexapro 20, Effexor 75, and Normabel. It seems like a pretty decent combination, if I do say so myself 🙂; I haven't run into any nasty side effects, though I guess the Effexor gives me a bit of heartburn.

How is everyone else holding up? Especially you, Rejo? 🙂

"I'll be back," he said, and wouldn't you know it? Welcome back, man.

Wait, how did you hear them snoring through all those meds? Just kidding. 🤣

In case you missed it, we started a lively new chat called I See Dead People. 😲

See, the thing is, they don't just hand out pills whenever you want; it's actually quite the opposite.
I suppose the issue is that when someone who has never touched anything like Klonopin tries it, it feels like a heavy sedative to them. But for me, being on Effexor, it doesn't even touch me, so naturally, it isn't going to put me to sleep.

What chat? I have no idea what you're talking about.

So, I’m currently taking some pills that have Roch 2 stamped on them... has anyone else ever dealt with these? Does anyone actually know what they are? 😕

Joshua Phillips5 said:Hey. I’ve been diagnosed with social anxiety and depression. I feel like I’ve cycled through a ton of meds already—tried Zyprexa, Lamictal, Prozac, and Paxil. Right now, I’m on Lexapro and Xanax, but honestly? None of them seem to be doing anything for me. I don't know what else to do... and man, living like this is just brutal. Anyone got any advice??

Just give the Lexapro 20 some time, and you might start feeling a lot better! I know plenty of people who are on that SSRI, and it seems to have worked well for them. 👍

Moditen?! That's actually one of the heavy hitters... where are you even getting that?
What exactly are you struggling with?

I was wondering, does anyone know if it's actually possible for Lexapro 20 to cause bruising on your legs even if you haven't bumped into anything?
Has anyone else out there noticed symptoms like that happening?

Oh boy! Regardless of whether others have experienced it or not, get off that medication right away and call the doctor who prescribed it to you immediately!!!!

Could it be Rivotril?

Rivotril (Roche) 2 mg Qty. 60 tabs
Rivotril® (clonazepam) is a benzodiazepine primarily used in the treatment of seizure and anxiety disorders. This drug may also be used to treat movement disorders, Restless Leg Syndrome, relieve trigeminal neuralgia, atypical, akinetic, myoclonic, or absence seizures, etc. The precise mechanism by which clonazepam exerts its antiseizure and antipanic effects is unknown, although it is believed to be related to its ability to enhance the activity of GABA. Clonazepam was approved by the FDA in 1975 and is one of the top 200 drugs prescribed in the United States.

CLONAZEPAM
This drug is used for the treatment of seizures.
Ingredient: Clonazepam
CLONAZEPAM is also known as RIVOTRIL.

Yeah, but let's be honest, that medication hits like a freight train. 😲 It’s so heavy you can barely even catch your breath...
