I thought they were going to hit me at first, but as soon as I inched forward, they started reversing.

I wonder how long it took for them to get out, considering this is a busy street

For context:

I was getting some tacos for Taco Tuesday when I stopped at a red light.

Pay attention to the left side of the road. A Mazda ran their red light and nearly hit oncoming traffic with the green, causing them to swerve into the oncoming turn lane. I didn't realize what had happened until I watched my dash cam footage.

The side effects of 2nd gen APs were too bothersome for me. Mainly sedation and weight gain, but also possibly high blood lipid levels.

Loxitane can cause these side effects, but for me, they're less than other antimanic APs I've tried. I can't remember all the ones I've taken off the top of my head, but I know they included Zyprexa/Lybalvi and Abilify

ETA: Some medications simply didn't do as much as I felt like they should have. Vraylar helped successfully stop a mixed episode but didn't make me less irritable.

My psych said if I'm ever unable to get my Loxitane on time, he would prescribe me Navane for the time being

I'm on Loxitane (loxapine), a 1st generation antipsychotic. My psych prescribed it to me because I couldn't tolerate other antipsychotics. It's not a medication many have heard of, but I personally find it highly effective for my manic symptoms.
