I am starting to prepare my life to have kids and an important part of that to me is transitioning my medications to pregnancy safe ones before we start trying. I am worried about stability though, I'm doing well on geodon, lamotrigine and seroquel (with clonidine for nightmares) and feel like I finally found a combination that keeps me in a good place after struggling to find the right combo for years. This also includes my birth control which helps my pmdd. I still need to talk to my psych but from what I read I shouldn't take 2/3 meds while pregnant. I guess I am looking for advice on how you handled your medication management while getting pregnant and if there are any extra tips or tools you could recommend while actually pregnant because I'm worried the hormones are gonna make me insane.

Hi all, I have found myself in a bit of a tough situation. I moved into a new rental and long story short they completely lied about the power capacity of the house and it cannot run one of our standing units on a 15amp circuit that is responsible for powering the entire upstairs. I called and made a maintenance request and was told by the maintenance guy he has no idea why they told us we could run our ac units here and that they weren't going to do anything because the building is just too old. I need a unit either standing or window that can cool down an 11ftx15ft room without tripping the breaker after 15 minutes. I want to be able to not have a 100° home and also not melt the wiring and cause a fire so any advice on this situation would be very welcome. Thanks!

Hey all, I'm looking for a specific type of snowball it has shaved ice and egg custard vanilla syrup and marshmallow on it. I have seen a few places do shaved ice but it doesn't seem to be quite what I'm looking for. I used to get these all the time when I was younger on the east coast and I'm feel nostalgic lol

Full transparency I am setting up the cameras to make sure my cats are using the litter box enough but all of the internet pointed me to you guys for advice lol. I don't like the idea of a ring or pet branded cam in my house after all the weird stuff they've been caught doing but I don't really have $300+ for the systems that seem to do what I want. I don't need 4 to 8 cameras just need a two motion activated cameras that can see in the dark on a system that doesn't need any internet so I can check every day to every other day to monitor them. Please share any advice you can I have no idea what I am doing 🙏

I wish there was a way to both get properly medicated and also tell psychiatrists like this where they can shove their medical degree

I did not give myself hair loss, memory issues and dry mouth lol

I got told I couldn't possibly have any memory or word association issues on lamotrigine because she has had 1 client on it for 10 years so that side effect does not exist I guess 🤷‍♂️ and that I gave myself those issues because I have been reading too many things online. She recommended I stop talking to other bipolar people online and leave any support groups I'm in so they don't keep influencing me. The memory issues went away after a dose decreases btw 😅

Actually crazy that this is their job, I'd be fired if I was this unpersonable and also just factually wrong almost every single time haha
