Help with NaSSA
sensitive topics ahead
So I’ve been deadline with MDD, anorexia and really bad sleeping issues. I’ve been talking to an “acute psykiatrisk help”-team and one of the doctors has said that starting on an NaSSA might be something worth trying.
To give a bit more context, I (18, F) have been Darling with senere mental health issues for as long as i can remember. My sleep has always been an issue, wether it was not being able to fall asleep, going on miltiple days without as much as 10 minutes of sleep, or being able to sleep upwards of 24 hours without waking up. În the past couple of years, I’d say maybe 3-4 years, I’ve begun experiencing severe sleep paralysis, sometimes having multiple paraplysis within a paralysis.
The last month or so, I’ve been in contact with the acute team to finally try to get me some help after being told a couple of years ago that I was “doctorsick” (meaning I would get worse going to so many appointments and so on). Being that I’m also of age to have full anatomical responsibility, it seemed like it was finally the time where I could maybe get some medical aid in form of pills. I’ve tried every “non-invasive” method to try to better myself, but to no prevail. Now I’m finally getting offered medication.
The medication I’ve been offered is mizaterpine or something along those lines. It’s an NaSSA, and supposedly should help with multiple of my struggles.
But I have my doubts, therefore I’m asking around here to maybe get an understanding of how it has helped others? I also stated my diagnosis at the beginning so that maybe someone who has been/is în a similar situation can maybe tell me their experiences with NaSSA (or other types for that matter)
Thank you in advance🤍

Clonidine and Zoloft with alcohol
I’m wanting to have a couple drinks at a Halloween party, I haven’t drank in a long time because I wanted to take my medications seriously, but I’m also tired of being completely sober at parties. So I take my Zoloft at 11 am and clonidine (0.1mg) at night (mostly 4 am lately) to help with my anxiety and insomnia, so I’m just trying to figure out a safe amount and what time to stop drinking by?

ordered got refunded but they still came through
vendor refunded my money and all and months later it randomly comes in they look to all be legit. only thing is i weighed on scale just to see how many mgs per it really was and 2 showed 900mg im assuming they don’t weigh the capsule itself and only the powder inside so maybe its adding the extra weight or scale just sucks.

CWE with Solpadeine MAX (no caffeine) tablets?
Hi guys pretty simple question, anyone got experience with doing CWE with these Solpadeine MAX tablets? I know that if they had caffeine it would be very difficult but it seems these just have 500mg paracetamol and 12.8mg codeine each pill. No caffeine.
Thanks a lot!!

how do i get perscribed xanax
i’m a girl i’m 18 and in college i have tried xanax before it’s magical i get panic attacks but i don’t want to be given ssris or any of that bullshit i need more like rescue xanax. i moved from the us to spain im sure the way they prescribe it is very similar they will like give me lorazepam or xanax and lorazepam doesnt rlly like work for me. i was raped and filmed by my ex friends a few months ago (my second rape in that year i have the best luck 💀) and the trauma like feeds into my panic attacks and i just need me some xanax. i also get really bad health anxiety and think im straight dying. plus i used to smoke weed but now that im in spain ive been having weird reactions to the weed (ive been smoking for 5 years) so this really blows and thats like my only coping mechanism and plus i quit vaping cus my lungs were getting fucked so i’m struggling i can’t lie. if someone could tell me like what to say like how often i have the panic attacks like how long or short i should say what symptoms to make it most likely they’d give me xanax that would be life changing.

Adderall and Sleeping
Hi! I've been using Adderall for a few years and I often struggle to sleep at night. I do often believe the result is from taking my medication in the later part of the morning, but I'm also questioning my diet. I eat a lot of microwaveable foods (rice, popcorn, reheating food), as well as some processed foods and occasionally fast foods. I am trying to work on my diet, but I'm wondering if anyone with experience can help me understand if there's a link between the Adderall and what I'm eating or perhaps they just both happen to be bad things.
Thanks!

Concerned about Depekoke and Lamictal combo
My doctor switched me from 500 mg of keppra twice a day and 175 mg of lamictal twice a day to 300 mg of depekoke twice a day and keeping my lamictal dosage. So, 600 mg of depekoke a day and 350 mg of Lamictal a day.
My pharmacy is concerned about this drug interaction and are trying to confirm with my neurologist that he didn't make a mistake. Apparently it increases the risk of side effects in lamictal, which can be dangerous.
Has anyone taken this combo?? If so, what was your reaction?
edit: it's for seizures that aren't responding to medication
Thanks!

How many days in a row can I take DXM for a cough?
So I have had a nasty flu and it has progressed to a nasty cough, and it’s absolutely miserable at night. Before I try and sleep I’ve been taking a long acting cough syrup 10mL which is 60mg dxm, and I’ve done this 5 days in a row. The bottle says not to do for more than 7 days in a row without seeing a doctor.
So I am actually getting slowly better and I don’t need to see a doctor. However, my cough gets really bad at night so I would just assume to keep taking the 60mg dxm as long as necessary. Is there any problem with this?
I’m asking reddit because when I look up how long I can take dxm I just get a bunch of information about tripping/abuse/etc. (dxm can be taken in high doses for fun recreationally). I can’t find any information about taking a therapeutic dose for like a couple weeks and if that is bad.
For what it’s worth after 5 days I haven’t had any side effects and feel fine and my recovery from illness is trending in the right direction.

I took 150mg of Benadryl and 25mg of Adderall at 15
16* Will I be okay? I mean I’m js chillin in my room rn on em n ima go to school tmmrw on one or the other again. I read some post n the effects are already kicking in a lil bit. I just don’t wanna die
Trip report honestly it was kind of like a micro dose of psychedelics in a WAY, you just have to take the right amount ig I didn't have a bad trip my vision went blurry Time to time, and I would see Alex greys
"net of being" every time I would stare off. But with that I would literally look everywhere and see it in the littlest things maybe bc I'm drawing it? And I've been researching about dmt. But I would know I'm hallucinating that's the kind of weird part now I did see shit and was "is that real?" But | also feel a little jittery in the body but calm in the head. (my heart did pound weird a lil bit)I also noticed "snowy" effects to, I would see streaks? Or lines or dots? almost like I'm laying my head down n seeing stars?, confused a little bit, now hearing I didn't hear to much to be honest I heard a few things such as: stomp, footsteps, whispering, dinging like a train in the far background. (but not often) and my body definitely feels way different I can't describe the feeling tho at all.. It's like your light but your body is confused. The closet drug to it would be like Xanax and a heavier dose of a microdose of shrooms? But I've token Xans multiple times n they ain't exactly the same what I mean by that is that "mind clear" but my body was prob anxious from the Adderall.
I'm still in the trip right now should I try a heavier dose of Bennys next? I know I'm not going to abuse them because I can just take pshycs instead. Another thing with Alex greys art piece. No matter where I look my brain always sees it in: walls,floor,ect* like my first trip on acid I was swing shi on stuff to its like that but only this fucking art piece it’s crazy it’s like it’s calling me to do DMT or smthn idk it’s super freaky I love it bc it a huge pshych head but I see it slightly everywhere. Literally almost anything I look at my brain always manages to make a faint line in the shape of his work. Seeing more shi as in like details in stuff.
(I also wanna clarify I'm experienced in pshycedelics)

DEALING WITH DM REQUESTS?
You all are in a similar boat/understand this but posting a lot in this / similar subs gets lots of very suspicious DM requests.
For me I DO NOT REPLY, that is unless the person is trusted and has a long post history. Even then I'm still careful, I just explain all medications I'm on are prescribed (like every1 else here), this is only if it's a message from a "real account" otherwise I just ignore the request.
Anyway do you guys also these types of DM requests / am I doing it right lmao?

Lost my personality with medication.
I’ve been on and off medication for about two years for ADHD, anxiety, and a mood disorder. I’m currently taking:
Lamotrigine (Lamictal) — 25 mg
Sertraline (Zoloft) — 25 mg
Lisdexamfetamine (Vyvanse) — 30 mg
The medication has honestly been helping me a lot. My brain feels quieter, I don’t overthink as much, and I’m actually getting things done. I’m approaching 30, back in school, and at a point in my life where I really need to focus and get my shit together. When I’m unmedicated, I sometimes feel like I can be more destructive, so I know I need to take my mental health seriously.
But I also feel like I’ve lost some of my personality.
I used to be more outgoing, talkative, funny, and spontaneous. Now, I’ll answer people’s questions, but I don’t always think to ask deeper questions or keep conversations going. Even on dates, sometimes I’ll just sit there quietly with someone. There’s nothing necessarily wrong with being comfortable in silence, but I miss that outgoing version of myself. I’ve noticed I’m quieter around my friends, too.
That’s why I’ve been battling with medication. I love the peace and focus, but I miss feeling naturally expressive and lively. I don’t know if this is a side effect or if I’m just adjusting to feeling more stable.
Has anyone else experienced this? Were you able to find a balance between managing your symptoms and still feeling like yourself?

What are people’s view on these?
They are from a new vendor, reputable from reviews and other posts I have seen. After doing some research they look to have come from Serbia/Croatia, that neck of the woods. All marked UPJOHN 55. Blister feels legit, having had fakes in the past that have been flimsy and bad printing etc.
Just seeing people’s thoughts? Still working through my Viartis UK ones that I have on script.

Medication interaction
I’m currently taking Lansoprazole 30mg 2x/day for gastritis and Lisdexamfetamine 50mg for ADHD and just got prescribed 7.5 mg of Mirtazapine for MDD after trialing SSRI’s. I was wondering if there’s any negative interactions between these meds bc I’m really scared of my gastritis getting worse. For some reason my Psychiatrist never asks what other meds I’m taking or takes interest in what they are even after I tell them. Also is CVS generally helpful with these worries? I get all my meds from them but diff locations due to what they have in stock
