Among the most popular of the DUFU editions have been those about meds. Specifically DUmmies talking (bragging) about the many meds upon which they are absolutely dependent. In fact, to read these DUmmie Meds threads, you would think that meds are as vital to DUmmies as food and water. Come to think of it, most DUmmies would rather mainline meds than eat a filet mignon. In the spirit of drug dependency we now have this DUmmie THREAD titled, "Just Curious...How many DUers have started meds since becoming a member of the community??" So let us now watch the DUmmies pop their pills in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, popping nothing more powerful than an aspirin to make it through this thread, is in the [brackets]:
Just Curious...How many DUers have started meds since becoming a member of the community??
[If they weren't druggies to begin with, by now they are on their way to OD City.]
I am just wondering. I have been here for a few years now. Sometimes I just get so depressed. I feel so hopeless. Really, I can't count the times I have been so shocked by the events that have taken place in this country and abroad by the mob in DC.
[I think you're going to have to drop some heavy duty acid after Election Day 2008.]
The victories we have experienced, seem so short lived. Only to be followed by more assaults on our democracy.
[We like to call this phenomenom Freudenschade, baby!]
OK...so Rove is going back to Texas. Hard to get excited about that on the heals of the new FISA legislation. I hate the turd as much as anyone but that wasn't even enough to arouse me after the last ass kicking.
[You are now entering the Sedation Zone.]
I am on Effexor XR now. Been on everything else before this new try.
[Effexor XR for a DUmmie on his way to the ER.]
My own life is in just as much peril as our country's.
[Tonight on CBS Evening News: America on Effexor XR!!!]
I. Don't. Feel. Good.
[Don't. Worry. Feel. Happy.]
ativan-I tried zoloft but couldn't....cum
[Try zaftig and you will still have same problem.]
I love ATIVAN tis my drug of choice!!!!!!
[ATIVAN for DUmmies who think young!!!!!!!]
ativan helps me maintain some normalcy
[Sorry about that ativan failure.]
Just told my doc I won't take Effexor. Hang in there, this place is as good for support as it is for doom.
[Holding out for Lithium?]
Love the DU mood swings like a roller coaster. THIS is the GREATEST PLACE ON EARTH TO VENT!!!
[Uppers and Downers! WHEEEEEEEEE!!!!!]
rAmen! This is my only real refuge, I live in red state hell. DU is therapy.
[Pardon my ignorance but the only rAmen I know about is some type of Chinese noodles.]
went on zoloft about a month into this admin. wish I was joking
[Seek help. Call the emergency BDS hotline: 1-800-BUSH-WON.]
Keep taking the meds. The alternative is way too messy. Keep seeing your doctor. Keep seeing your therapist.
[Keep overdosing. Keep seeing your rubber room.]
I intend to someday quit effexor completely, but I don't know how soon I will be ready. I am no longer depressed, and I don't want to be taking a drug just to make me feel normal, but the withdrawal is so bad, I have to quit gradually.
[The thought of withdrawal is enough to depress you into doubling your effexor ration.]
Effexor has some of the worst side effect (brain-shivers, weight gain) of all of them, and also some of the worst withdrawal symptoms.
[One of the really bad Effexor side effects is a desire to remain in DUmmieland.]
I've taken Zoloft before, when I was diagnosed with Serious Depression at age 25. Quitting Zoloft was nothing. Didn't feel any withdrawals at all. This f*cking EffexorXR is 100x worse than cocaine to stop. And, EffexorXR does not get you high.
[How about the cheaper alternative of just sticking your head in a bucket of water and keep it there?]
I am also interested in some of the headway they are making in very targeted, low dose electro-shock therapy. There are very recent studies out that seem to be quite promising.
[You might also want to consider the very targeted, low dose lobotomies.
Effexor makes people hostile. That explains DUs attitude.
[So would Atavil explain the DUmb part?]
Effexor is what worked for me, but I'm off of it now because I'm broke. And I have no health insurance. It turned down the volume of my anxiety attacks to a manageable level, which I first noticed when I climbed onto a roof without freaking out (heights - bad). Unfortunately, it didn't save my marriage, and it may have actually hurt because it killed my sex drive.
[In addition to killing off your brain cells.]
I have been on either Zanex or valium since 1987 All due to anxiety and panic attacks . However since the loss of jobs and not being able to find new work things have really gotten worse than ever , this on top of this admin and it's freakish dealings which affect just about everything one can think of just must have pushed me over the edge
[Zanex for the odd years, valium for the even years. And crack for the leap years.]
I'm working with Ronco to sell do-it-yourself, at home, low-dose electro-shocks kits.
Each kits consists of a 10 foot piece of electrical cord, with a plug on one end and 2 bare wires on the other.
Works with any 110 volt outlet (hence the "low dose" vs. 220 volts) and retails for the amazing low price of $19.95.
All you have to do is hold the bare wires to your temples while a spouse or "life partner" plugs the other end into the wall socket. (Note: Must have 15 amp or better circuit capacity. Best results are achieved in a tub of water or in the shower.)
(Warning! Not for use on outlets with GFCI protection!)
(Buyer assumes all responsibility for the proper use and operation of this devise. No warranty expressed or implied by the manufacturer.)
If Ronco doesn't like my idea, maybe Acme will buy it....
Brain-shiver?
WTF is a brain-shiver?
And besides, doesn't one have to possess a brain for it to shiver in the first place?
When we say DUmmies are not dealing with reality, and they deny it, here is our proof! They need drug-induced altered realities just to exist in the real world!
Do any of them not make any kind of connection that they’re all under psychiatric care and taking mind altering prescription drugs and their terminal unhappiness with life, America and politics?
Does this connection not register with these people?
I hate to call attention to true mental illness as it is, in many cases, legitimate. But seriously, this is nothing more than a self-help group for mental patients. I’m sure if the same thread was made and replied to by KOSmunists or HUffers the responses would be the same though.
So the entire Democratic leadership and Presidential field is pandering to a group of overmedicated self-loathers thinking they’re a serious political bloc.
Wow, just...... wow.
These people are just so DUpressing...
Goodness! I can’t believe that thread is for real! Even if the place is a looney bin, you wouldn’t think they would advertise it!
I don’t even know what any of those drugs are. It’s good to be a conservative.
I’ve come to the conclusion that Prog-thought is an effect, not a cause; once a person drops the recreational drug habit, he almost always turns conservative.
Someone could do a study on DU - what’s the correlation between admitted drug use and being one of Pitt’s bobos, for example.
These people were crazy long before 2001.
If DUmmie Land is your therapy, you should consider a stay at Club Gitmo. A water boarding would do you some good.
Oh! you are so brutal.....I think I love you
LOL, this is the FUnniest in a long time. People who actually want electro-shock!!!!!!! Yet they oppose torture for others. I guess they’re like the dog barking in the manger. Torture is only good if they’re the ones experiencing it.
I finally figured out that DUmmie Funnies is faked. No way in hell this is real. No way. Even those psycho freaks could not be so messed up and brag about it. No way.
What a bunch of losers! And it never occurs to them, even after reading each others posts, that we at FR just might be the normal ones. Sheesh!
“WTF is a brain-shiver?”
A couple of years ago The crap hit the fan so I started taking Celexa from a friend for a few months to see if it would take me out of my funk. Well the stuff didn’t do crap so I just stopped taking it cold turkey. Big mistake! I imagine what the DUmmie is talking about are these weird sensations like a slight electric current through your skull that comes like a wave then dissapears just as quick. Pretty scary stuff. One pill would make it go away for like a week then it would come back again. Took months to completely go away. I will NEVER take anything that alters my brain chemistry like that again, It was foolish in the first place.
"SOLD!"
I was taking Antimalarial medication (Meflequine?) due to a deployment. You take it once a week. The floor would suddenly feel like it shifted 90 degrees. After a moment it would settle down. Also; there was a feeling of “turbulence a few hours after taking it, but it didn’t last beyond the rest of the day. At first I thought it was Earth tremors.
Don’t get me started on what people who took Ambien went through!
Why do people want this crap when it’s not absolutely necessary (like to prevent malaria)?
