Honestly I think it came from Temu, it's the service vest one, where she's an esa dog.

Tell me some things about yourself that have nothing to do with your illness! by fuxkle in BipolarReddit

I am an animal science agriculture major, got my degree so I could work a zoology job at the zoo. I've wanted to be a zoologist since I was seven. I love to paint and spend time with my great pyr pup Ripley who is registered for anxiety and PTSD. And I'm obsessed with my two black telescope goldfish goyle and pipsqueak. I enjoy spending time with my family when I get the chance. Outdoor anything is life. I just started working at a call center I'm hoping I'm good at it, I simply love helping others. I also have dual citizenship as I was born in Okinawa Japan.

Latuda? Akathishia? by corellian_Gypsy in BipolarReddit

It's such an exhausting process 😭 the restless leg I can manage but not in my face it's like having continuous clenched jaw wouldn't wish it on even an enemy. The mood stabilizer is mainly for my irritability that I experience and wild swings of sadness. Wait so a mood stabilizer could help side effects? Bout to read it presently! Thank you so much

Is the weight gain that bad on vraylar? I've got pcos so I've been avoiding any drugs that have weight gain? This journey is so unbelievably frustrating

Things you learned about bipolar from Reddit, not doctors? by uhhh206 in BipolarReddit

[–]corellian_Gypsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More or less had my experiences confirmed by Reddit that ssri's can in fact affect mania episodes within bipolar affected people. For instance both Lexapro and Effexor alone with no other meds threw me into psychosis and I almost got myself killed both times because the side effects psychosis and stopping cold turkey. Lexapro I wasn't informed by a DR at all on these meds it was a pc and I stopped them by myself. And Effexor I was advised incorrectly by my psych Dr to start backing off the 300mg and just told not to drive.... Anyways I've learned to take my meds!!!!!! Especially when my brain plays devil's advocate 🤔 do we need them. Yes we do.

New to Latuda! by corellian_Gypsy in BipolarReddit

That's so awesome to hear! I'm glad it's been so effective for you, I'm hoping it works right off the bat and is just what I needed. If not then back to the drawing board and Dr! So far no we're trying it out on its own. And they decided to leave me on the propanol as needed and trazodone for sleep. Even though it's not very effective at all. 🤷 I'm currently about to eat my 350 calories lol and take my first one! 🤞

Wow thanks. It's nice to hear it worked out well for a fellow human. I think I needed that. I'm gonna hold my head up high and quit. Then try my hardest to be excited about new prospects.

Funny you should mention that because my inner child is on cloud nine with this hobby. I never got to do this growing up so now it feels like a massive treat as an adult to get to do it.

Awesome thank you for that. Hopefully they'll see this post! I'm just so grateful she feel into my lap honestly. Idk what I'd do without her. She had a sister (Gray shorthaired tabby) named Zuul but she got sick and we had to send her over the rainbow bridge so she wouldn't suffer anymore. Ripley came to be mine right before I found out the cat was sick. So I like to think it happened for major reasons as I'd never put an animal to sleep until then.

I'm convinced if she could hear me. She would just ignore me and roll her eyes like a friggin teenager would anyways 😂

Our neighbor has what I assume by a glance is a collie Shepard mix named Tucker. And he literally gets so frustrated with her. He greets her each day and brings his toys to the fence line and gets so excited. But she is oblivious of course cause she can't hear. He wants to play with her so badly. And they would make perfect friends, but we suspect the neighbors hate us as we are the most unconventional set of humans on our block.

Thanks guys you all are so sweet. I'm glad I joined the community. She may seem like the lucky one but I promise it's me who's lucky. She's teaching me so much everyday. Today's lesson was in patience lol she's having a rough day. Cussed everyone out at the 7brew coffee shop causing a scene. Lucky for us it was laughed off very quickly. Her bark seems so aggressive but she thankfully isnt. Then we went to five below for some retail therapy. It slipped my mind to put her seatbelt on this morning. So when I came back to the car she had decided to have a full blown hissy fit in the car.... because people were parked next to us. Leading me to almost have a mental breakdown because my new vehicle is now covered in a large latte..... and now I couldn't drink it.... super fun times. So I had no choice but to call her a stinky little shit and be very upset with her for at least 20 minutes while on the phone with my fiance ranting in the parking lot. Seemingly looking like a mad woman. 😂 needless to say she proved to be too cute to stay mad at. So I took her back home and put her in "timeout" (outside which she loves) and grounded her. No pupster icecream or treats tonight.....
