    • Hug

      From tedibear Yesterday

      Hey Terry, Just read ur journal entry from yesterday, its okay to vent, u need to get it out. I worry all the time about the side effects of meds, I took lithium a couple days, couldn't stand the side effects, then read up on how u can get permanent damage to ur kidneys, and get diabetes too from taking it. I just started invega, not sure what the adverse reactions are, maybe I shouldn't look, cause I'm feelin' better right now. I hope things get better for u soon. I can understand u being depressed. hugs,tedi
