I took 10 mg a day of Abilify for about two months. I had some bad side effects and eventually just
stopped taking it.
After I stopped Abilify, I became very depressed, something which I had never been before.
Three weeks after stopping it I still get bouts of depression and peaks of anxiety. I have lost interest in things that used to interest me. The world
seems flat.
I am very concerned that the Abilify has caused permanent damage to my brain and I am going to be stuck this way for the
rest of my life.
Does this sound familiar to anyone. Will this condition eventually go away?

>>17981363
I used to take Risperdal, Seroquel, and Abilify (not at the same time) and had similar affects while taking them, but I don't remember having those same affects 3 weeks after I stopped.

I googled it though and apparently it stays in your system for up to 34 days, so it sounds normal. If you're not feeling better in 2 weeks, go to a doctor.

Do you guys enjoy the struggle that life is? Do you see it as a challenge rather than a burden? Do you enjoy life?
21 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
Yes and no.

Life is neither a challenge not a burden; it's not even a choice. We're forced into life, told it's this magical thing for about 10 years before reality sets in. Seeing that everything is money makes life look very sad. Not in a "boohoo" way; more like pity. Humanity has the mind and the ability to be something so much better but it's constantly held back, willingly, by nonsensical concepts and imaginary blockades.

They swear they grow up and turn into adults but everything that was "icky gross nasty" from their childhoods sticks in their minds and governs their actions.
>>
Right now I see it as a burden mostly.

I go to college. Work. Study. Sleep. Rinse repeat. It's extremely boring, minus some stress during finals. It's not easy enough to just drift through, but it's not hard or fast paced enough for me to really get excited about the challenge.

Thinking of moving a few states away once I graduate if I can get an interview there. I want to make life more engaging, but lost on that front.
>>
im easily discouraged so i see it as a burden. right now im in such a funk and incredibly depressed.

What to do with money?

I am crippled and have no social life, at all. I never go out, I have no friends, etc... I am this way because I have spent my whole life being excluded and made fun of because of my disability... So even now when people are friendly, I am just a shitty person and tell everyone to fuck off, I have no interest in friends or socializing.

I have a good job though and make good money... Even after getting all I want, putting away the max amount in retirement accounts, etc... I still have a lot left over.

I don't know what to do with it. I am never going to have a family, I can't have kids, never going to have anyone else. Even with a few thousand set aside for an emergency, I still have more left.

I am ignorant of money stuff though, I am only 25 and until a year ago never even had a job in my life. I just lucked out and my dad got me a job from a friend of his.

My family doesn't have any advice to offer because even though they have all had decent enough careers, they still lived paycheck to paycheck at the edge of their means, buying everything on credit, etc., to where they never had much left after paying all their bills.

Thanks

keep working

keep living cheaply

and keep saving as much $$ as you can

> I am only 25

someday you'll be much older and sadly have some health problems which will stop you from working

so get disability insurance now

and see beginning of this post, so when you're an oldfag & sick you''ll have $$ in the bank instead of going homeless

>I am crippled and therefore never going to have a family, never going to have anyone else.

Yeah, just like Hank Williams Sr (spina bifida), John Cougar Mellencamp (s b ), Miss Iowa Abbey Curren (cerebral palsy), comics Chris Fonseca and Josh Blue (CP), Lou Gehrig (ALS), Stephen Hawking (ALS), Mao Zedong, Charles Mingus, David Niven, Leadbelly (all ALS), etc. etc.

Hey, being disabled sucks big time and it does limit your horizons in many ways. But a social and even sexual life need not be one of them unless you choose to use your disability as an excuse to reject people who might actually (as amazing as it seems ) like you.

How do I leave a relationship I am emotionally very much dependent on?

My girlfriend is abusive towards me, sexually, but "normal" to me most other times. I love her, and I have told her I am not comfortable being humiliated for her sexual pleasure. I am met with I can put up with it or leave, which scares me more than anything. How can I talk her out of it, is it normal at all?

Leave.

If she gave you that alternative, she's rude, and you are better off without her. Billions of people on Earth, and not one should have this much power over you.

Think about it no different than you do a shit job. Not being paid enough? Leave.

So I'm setting up a second date with a girl. On the first date we went for a walk, sat down to drink coffee and talk and finally went to play some minigolf. Apparently she liked that more than I thought since I just texted her about setting up second date and she told me "I think it's going to be hard to top the first one, I had some much fun. But I'm sure we can think of something".

So any ideas for second date? I haven't dated a lot so I'm kinda drawing blank.

You are already stressing out and caring too much. It's too late.

This is doomed. You will fail.
>>
>>17981199
I don't really feel that way. Sure I stressed before the first date too but once we met it was all gone, I'm sure it'll be the same this time too. Hell I think I made a thread here asking for ideas that time too. Yeah I havent done muc dating so I don't know what people usuallyu do, I'm not afraid to admit that. Doesn't mean I care that much, I mean I was happy to hear she liked the date but I wasn't depressed when I wasn't sure.
>>
>>17981192
I would guess the normal progression would be dinner and a [blank]. Is there anywhere you could take her that has live music? It's cold where I live so the usual outdoor first-couple-of-date activities this time of year are ice skating, sledding, or going to the winter carnival stuff we have going on around here. Inside stuff would be bowling, laser tag, a comedy show,there's an indoor amusement park around here, the aquarium, the zoo (progressively more expensive, mind you)

It sounds like she likes having fun with you, which is really good! And if you picked the first date's activity it can definitely be her turn to pick something. Sounds like things are going really well. Good luck

>tfw have yellow fever and a taste for older more independent women
I was riding the bus the other day when a stop or two before mine an older asian chick came on. She couldn't have been very much over 30; she was still built like a teenager but with thicker lines. I've seen chinese and korean women around but I'm pretty sure this one was japanese. I wasn't quick to react and I'm pretty sure she saw me squirm around and try to ignore her; I could have sworn she was smiling at me. She made me almost miss my stop. It's been eating me ever since that I didn't ignore my stop and start a conversation with her.
I guess questions would be:
How do I not make an ass of myself when I see an unexpectedly attractive woman around?
If I see this one again should I try making conversation (I definitely should, but would it be worth missing my stop and praying I don't have to walk for more than 15 minutes back?)
Am I a fool for seeking people at least ten years older than me and of a different race when I'm attractive enough to mingle with people my age, race, etc?

I'm a complete fucking loser.

I have no friends, I never go out and I live in my mom's basement. I can't think of anything to do for a career and I think of killing myself every day.

How does someone change their life from something so miserable in to something a bit more worthwhile. I just want a happy family one day..

You know what you have to do, problem is you probably dont want to do it.

It's not like you have to do what I did but if I can make it in those circumstances you can make it in yours.

>Threw what I could carry in a backpack and hopped on a plane to a random city
>Put out an ad that I was recently homeless and would help with anything just for a little time to find a job
>Move in with stranger, sleep on the couch, get job after a week
>Save up money, find a better job after a month
>Pay them rent, 2 weeks pass by and they ask if I would finally move
>Get my own place after a week

Now, consider that I was exactly like you in nearly every way. Since you can envision what a fucking loser I must have been, 4 years later let me tell you how I live now

>work in classy building for wealthy and highly successful people, meet celebrities fairly regularly
>have a new car, great girlfriend
>interact with 9-10/10 women daily, get a lot of interest from them and they spend hours talking to me just for fun
>tons of upscale business connections that make life easy enough that i never worry about finding work

If I can do it, so can you. I believe that very much.

Maybe you won't be as lucky, maybe it will be harder for you than it was me(it was very difficult for me). All I can guarantee you is that having a good head on your shoulders and taking risks is the only way to make it. If you don't have to risk as much, power to you, but the first step is getting off your ads and finding a job.

9 weeks ago lost my GF of 4 years due to an OD. This woman was my everything, and now life seems bleak. Not suicidal by any means but have nothing to live to work for, if that makes sense? My brother convinced me to work out with him but all that does is just make me more emotional and I ugly cry for a good hour after each work out. Also I don't know if it is depression or what but I just want to eat all the time even if I just ate, it is a constant struggle not to. I keep losing stuff that is hers which makes it harder. I have found some one in a similar situation and she has told me it just gets a little easier but this will be a life long struggle. So please /adv/ how do I find something else to work towards so my life feels like it has meaning? How does one get over the heart ache when I feel I have been robbed of so many experiences in life?

Pic is us when we first started dating when I was more active and we just finished a Tough Mudder.

Sorry man. I've never been through this but each person has a different mental fortitude, you and the other girl are different, don't be too pessimistic. Believe that one day you will get over it. Join some book club, jogging, gym, cycle between those things.
>>
>>17981094

Sorry to hear that man, I can't imagine a more miserable point in someones life then to lose their loved one. All you can do is soldier on as you have been, keep her in your heart and take her with you for the rest of your life's journey. She would want you to have an amazing life and to find happiness again so I would devote my life to doing just that. Travel and see the world, help those in need, make new friendships etc.

If there's anything she always wanted to do or see you can do that in her place too.
>>
>>17981094
Jesus, that's powerful.

>So please /adv/ how do I find something else to work towards so my life feels like it has meaning?

Don't worry about it, that comes to you after a while. Right now you need to literally bathe in the pain of losing her, it's normal and it really does get easier.

>How does one get over the heart ache when I feel I have been robbed of so many experiences in life?

As I said, mourn all you need to and don't try to force distraction on yourself. I know it's not the best advice but looking back in a few years from now you will know that right now there is nothing more important for you than to fully compute that she is gone.

Personally I have to be pretty drunk before I start dancing, I can't dance sober it just feels too awkward.

Once I got like 4-5 beers down I get on the dance floor and go with the flow, mimicking what others are doing (which usually is just banging their fists in the air like retards), generally the closer you are to the stage, the friendlier and more hyped people are, so I usually just mosh my way in there and find a group of people to dance with, strangely there's always that random group of guys in the front who are always happy to see me and lets me swoosh right in, now that I've established a "safe zone" I can start trying to dance with others like hot girls/hot guys whatever I feel like at the moment, if they reject me then I just fall back into the group/safe zone and be like "whatever bitch I got my cool homies right here".

With time you'll pick up some special moves you can pull off, I have a few I've picked up from years of careful observation, occasionally a extremely drunk fellow will get on the dance floor and pull off something super funky, so keep your eyes open, snap it up and then practice it to perfection.

I sound like a turboautist right now but you generally just have to be happy and drunk, it doesn't really matter what you do as long you aren't puking all over and elbowing people in the face. Just briefly look people in their eyes, smile, scream when the beat drops/when a song you like come on. Be drunk and confident.
