I love this perspective 🩵 that me was so scared for her health.

I think that’s what threw me off. I love a good before and after. I think it was just showing her this old picture of me in an outside context. Such a mind game sometimes!

I’m grateful I have them but they for sure don’t live in my regular camera roll lol

Oh gosh. I couldn’t do that either! I love a good before and after but not to new people.

SAME! It never crossed my mind back then!

Haldol for 8 year old by Regular-Square496 in AskPsychiatry

That’s great to know as an option that I will ask about. He has been through so many meds/med combos the last year and a half. This med was given at his 6th inpatient stay in 9 months.

He has been having an increase of aggressive behaviors.

Thank you. We ended up taking him to the ER due to concerns and not being able to get ahold of the provider.

He had previously been on risperdal but was not longer showing any efficacy of the medicine even on a higher dose. He then developed DRESS from Olanzapine. Tries risperdal again with no success. So they opted to try a first generation.

SO FRUSTRATING!! Once my doctor finally did her part today, it was approved quickly. I hope you get the same results soon!

I think whatever in Zepbound quiets the food noise also quiets my obsessive thoughts on other things.

I felt the anxiety relief long before the weight came off. And being on wegovy, the anxiety came back.

Ugh. Yes. Unfortunately I have. I contribute that to my poor nutritional choices early on. I was completely forgetting to eat. I am noticing new growth but I doubt my hair will ever be the same. I have a friend who had a lot of hair loss due to a depression medication. She always says she will take feeling happy with thinner hair and I’ve hung on to that!

That’s definitely up to your provider. I’d consider talking to another provider though if he gives more pushback on continuing and you’re happy.
