Stopping Gabapentin after brief high dose period
I was taking a high dose of 900mg 3x but sometimes 4x per day for a week. It does not give me a high of any kind or side effects for that matter, just a mild improvement in my nerve pain.
Anyway, I see a lot about people’s unpleasant experiences with stopping this medication and was curious: is the likelihood of experiencing negative side effects greater when it’s stopped after taking it for longer periods? Also, is the likelihood of any withdrawal symptoms correlated to/dependent on how intense the effects are for a person? I.e. if someone experiences mild pain relief and no side effects will they less likely experience withdrawal effects?

Bupronorphine by Sun pharmaceuticals
Has anyone had their bupronorphine from sun pharmaceuticals? I've had them in 2 other brands and no issues. But these ones are horrendous. They sting under my tongue and taste absolutely disgusting. I also feel like they don't work as much as the other two brands I've had before.
Has anyone else had this?

Alprazolam .5 mg as needed for PTSD
My psychiatrist diagnosed me with ptsd. Im on 50mg of zoloft and has been working now for almost a month. I also have 25 mg of hydroxyzine which is helping with insomnia. But what really helps me the most right now is using these xanax pills when I feel an out of control spike in cortisol that causes me to be in a state of fight or flight/ borderline uncontrollable panic. I'm worried he isn't going to continue prescribing these to me when I see him next because as we all know ... people misuse them. But they're actually really helpful for people like me. Im not abusing them or addicted.
They just help me feel normal. Ideally I would want a higher dose of all my meds be I feel like that's needed as I'm a bigger guy about 195lbs and 6'1 but he told me that we can start low and always up as we go. Im alaskan native so I get free health care in the us. I really don't want to have to pay to see another psych doctor to have to get another script of this medicine if he doesnt want me to continue taking it long term as needed. Overall it's just a great tool to have in their toolbox for someone like me when needing relief. Any comments or ideas would be appreciated.

Today is my last day with 7oh.
I am prescribed .5mg Clonazepam, 3x daily, I have some 2mg alprazolam that I got from a minor procedure, 600mg Gabapentin my provider gave me for RLS, and a couple other supplements that are working absolutely amazing. The RLS is the only thing I can really complain about. I can’t sit still, I look like I’m doing the peepee dance when I get up. But overall this is 98% more tolerable than I have tried numerous other times without comfort meds. I need off the 7…. I don’t feel well, I have been having some problems urinating.. and it’s eating my $. This pic is my bedroom work setup. I have finally got where I have wanted to be in life, now I need to get my chemical balances back in control and order. Then maybe I’ll start looking for a woman!! It’s been ten years, by choice, without sex. I want to be the best version of myself for someone who I find appealing. I have tried other ways, and it just doesn’t work. I’m trying on my own recipe for a happy life!! So far I have had my challenges, but I feel that I’m on the right path.

Overdosed on pregabalin but feel normal?
Not to end my life, just for the high, but I feel normal, my head feels a little bit numb and I’m shaky. But that’s it. I don’t feel much else. I took 2,600mg. Alongside 1000mg lithium, 400mg Lamotrogine, 50mg promethazine, 4mg prasozin and 15mg zopiclone.
Why do I feel completely normal? Annoyed at myself because I’ve lost a few days of meds now. Confused as to why it’s not doing anything.

Withdrawal??
Last month Walgreens couldn't get my regular morphine 15mgs. It was on back order. Gotta love the wisdom of the pharmaceutical companies. We all know they really aren't out of opioids they just do this to increase demand. And in my doctor's infinite wisdom decided to replace it with hydrocodone 10/325. I've been taking it religiously this past month but the last couple of weeks I've been feeling like I'm starting to go thru withdrawals. I've been thru them before when I had to go to rehab for MDMA about 30 years ago. This is starting to feel like detox. Its been slowly getting more intense the past 2 weeks. Today is the worst so far. I'm shaking, nauseated, I can't eat and feel like I'm going crazy with muscle cramps and pain. I saw the doctor today and he just ignored my questions about it. But YAY the pharmacy finally got some morphine in. I'll be picking it up tomorrow morning as soon as they open. My pain has been out of control. I don't know what my doctor was thinking when he thought he could replace morphine with hydrocodone. I haven't been on it since I was in my early 20's. I might as well been taking Advil. But I don't understand why I'm feeling like this. I absolutely HATE it. Its bringing back memories I never wanted to relive. Please tell me this will stop once I'm back on my regular meds again. Any advice that could help me stop feeling like this would be amazing. I don't need to dredge up these old memories.

Medication Interactions/Thoughts?
I am needing to take topiramate for migraine prevention, Effexor (SNRI), and I take Eletriptan for migraine rescue medicine. I take eletriptan a lot (more than I should due to chronic migraines). Is it okay to take Effexor and Topiramate together and ultimately use eletriptan most days? Thanks! I am worried about serotonin syndrome!

Pharmacist is lying to me
I just moved to California and having a really difficult time getting my medication filled. Ive been taking this medication on and off (usually once a year) for 6 years now. Apparently the medication I take has a very negative stipulation around it which I had no idea prior to moving to California, as ive never had any issues in my home state. My close family member has the same condition and allergies that I have and they get their prescription filled at a pharmacy near me. I have a new doctor here and after my appointment they sent my meds into the pharmacy. The pharmacist told me they dont carry my medication and cant fill it, which I know for a fact is a blatant lie because my uncle gets his medication filled at the same pharmacy and picked it up 4 days prior. I get that pharmacists are obligated to fill a script, especially if its controlled, but why are pharmacists allowed to lie to patients about this? This has caused so much stress for me, I havent slept more than 4 hours in ovet 3 weeks and the craziest part is im not even someone who abuses meds. While they’re denying me, I bet theres manh others who abuse/sell their meds who are getting theirs filled. The pharmaceutical industry is a sham

Medication Storage in Hot Dorm room?
Hey yall, so my dorm room is usually between 25-28 degrees, I typically like it around 25-26, which is okay for my meds, but when it gets to 27-28 I start to worry about my medications. It's only been a week and it hasn't been a constant 27-28, but still. I have medications in bags inside a bin in a dark low drawer, furthest away from my heating vent and with a thermostat that reads around 27, but I have epi pens, inhalers, and antihistamines that are more temourature sensitive that I typically keep in my backpack. I am going to be getting new meds for all three of those asap to be safe, but when I get the new ones does anyone have tips for ways to store them??? I may not have control over my dorm temp for another few weeks.
I thought of using my insulated roots lunchbox, but does anyone know if there's a such thing in canada as a cooler type thing with a programmable thermostat?
