I hate metformin. The pills so are big that you can only fit so many on the counting tray at a time and people get hundreds of them at a time. They are definitely the pills you tell the new people to count.

I took Wellbutrin a long time ago as an anti-depressant and it made my dick stop working. It ruined my relationship with my girlfriend at the time and made my life worse. It also gave me horrible diarrhea like 6 times a day, and finding bathrooms was really stressful and also made my life worse. Of course the wonderful doctor prescribing it, who was definitely not receiving kickbacks to do so, just kept raising the dosage in response to these side effects. Eventually I told him to fuck himself, never went back, and started smoking weed again, and things improved drastically.

Wellbutrin (bupoprion now that it's generic) is an anti-depressant and "sexual side effects" are common with a lot of those. It was cool at first because I could still go, I would just last forever. Then it stopped working entirely and was awful.

My first was Efexxor, I think.

I slept about 45 minutes in 3 days on that shit.

Damn. I tried Wellbutrin in my early-mid 20s and got nothing from it. No pros or cons. That's my experience with every anti-depressant tho. My pain pills help my mood by allowing me to do shit.
---

Need to but I dont
---

Just realized i was still referring to the metformin.

a year ago i was on fluoxetine but my doctor has taken me off of it to see if my mood remains stable without it
---

I hesitate to bash anti-depressants because if somebody has their life improved by taking them, then that's a good thing and any hate they get for it is bullshit. But when you actually read up on the trials for the drugs for like 70% of people they do nothing positive, and for like half of the people the side effects are huge negatives. When pharma companies basically bribe doctors to prescribe certain ones and ignore that it's not working or is a negative thing in the patient's life, it ruins any illusion that it's about helping people and shows what most of the pharmaceutical industry is, getting insurance to pay for shit no matter what because fuck anything and everything for a dollar.

Nope. I'm normal.

:)

I was on blood pressure medicine(hydralazine) for a couple of months 2 years ago, but for some reason my Cardiologist wouldn't write me any more scripts, and I didn't have a primary at the time. Luckily I was able to bring it down to a healthy level with exercise, and apple cider vinegar.
