^I want to get off of those damn pills! But my shrink still thinks it's working (spoiler alert it isn't)
I was prescribed Seroquel in the hospital "for sleep". I've never had problems sleeping except in hospital so I took them. I should have come off the pills when I went home but I was on them for another 6-7 months. And gained over 30kgs. I thought when I quit the Seroquel I'd lose weight but I didn't. Lithium and haloperidol combine to keep the weight on. Because they're keeping me sane I will keep taking them and I guess lose weight oh so slowly.

If I were you I'd want to come off them too. Zyprexa is at the top of the list for weight gain.

^Zyprexa was only necessary when my insurance would pay for it and the Prozac that goes along with it....

Abilify wasn't being covered by my insurance anymore after I turned 26.

Abilify isn't on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme here unless one has a diagnosis of schizophrenia, so instead of costing around $7, it's over $100 for a month's supply. I can't afford it.

It helped me a bit... but the illegal withdrawal that I tried to do made me feel locked out of my own head.

A little alcohol and for damned good reason.  Yes, I am a lush, according to a jerk here.  Too bad... 8)

I just realised last night that it's not called Coke No Sugar anymore, but Coke Zero Sugar now.

When it was getting popular in the states it was just simply Coke Zero

When it was first introduced here, as an alternative to Diet Coke, it was Coke Zero. It came in black cans with red writing. Then it went to Coke No Sugar in red cans with black writing, now just the name has changed, the cans are the same.
