We like them, but what's on those sites is their business, not ours.
Comments: I'll have more later. For now I can tell you that Mouse
has found Adderall to be less effective than Abbott's version of Desoxyn.
As for Ovation's there were too many dosage issues with both meds for a good
comparison. The immediate-release version gave her migraines,
but she's able to tolerate the extended-release version with periods of
melancholia and greater lack of motivation. Eventually she was able to
figure out a dosing schedule with the immediate-release version that works for
her. And the headache thing is just too unpredictable to tell what is
causing them.
The Overlords of the 12 Zernox Galaxies have compelled me
through messages in the Sunday Chronicle to beg you for spare change. So
if this site has been of use and/or amusement to you, please see if
you could
or visit the Donation Page if PayPal isn't your style.
Or our Mental Mall to make a purchase. Better yet,
if you run a business and want to advertise on Crazy Meds, see
our page on ad
rates and policies. I'm all about
fiscal transparency, so follow the money for full
disclosure of my pitiful finances.
If you still have unanswered questions about this or other medications,
including which one is, or combination of meds are the best for you, your best
bet is to ask on Crazy
Meds Talk. Better yet, if you want to let the world know how they
worked out for you and want to help out others in their quest for the correct
meds, join the party.
If you want to discuss your issues, I suggest checking out one of
the various
support groups online.
Otherwise, if you're letting me know about how much you like or hate the site,
or need to let me know about medication effects in private, then just drop
a note to jerod23 at gmail dot com Honestly, I usually don't have a
lot of time to answer e-mail these days. The snide autoresponse
message that may or may not hit your mailbox is going to tell you the same
thing.
Another problem is that you may not get a response even if I wanted to send you
one. You see, so many dickweeds with malicious intents and too much time
on their hands have appropriated the crazymeds.org domain name to use for their
spam, viruses and the like. Subsequently some lazy-ass e-mail protection
software authors just go by the domain name, and not the IP address. So
I've been blacklisted because of the actions of others. Or the software
just doesn't like the domain name because of the "crazy" and/or "meds." Or
your question about a particular medication will set off spam flags. So
the e-mail just wouldn't go through regardless. Sorry.
Hey, did you find this page all by itself through Google or some other search engine?
Great! But to really appreciate the entire site, you need to start here.
All rights reserved. No warranty is expressed or implied in this information.
Consult one or more doctors and pharmacists before taking, or changing how you take any
neurological and/or psychiatric medication. Your mileage may vary. What happened to us won't necessarily
happen to you. Nobody on this site is a doctor,
therapist, or a pharmacist. We don't portray them either here or on
TV. Only doctors can diagnose and treat an illness. Some doctors tend to get pissed off
by patients who know too much about medications, so tread lightly when and where
appropriate. Diagnosing yourself from a website is like defending yourself in court, you
suddenly have a fool for a doctor. Don't be a
cyberchondriac, thinking you have every
disease you see a website about, or that you'll get every side effect from every
medication. Self-prescribing is just as dangerous. All information on this site has been obtained through personal experience,
the experiences of my friends, the experiences of people reported on online support
groups, and from sources that are referenced throughout the site.
Know your sources! As such the information
presented here is not a substitute for real medical advice from your real doctor, just a
compliment to it. No neurologists, psychiatrists, therapists or pharmacists were harmed in the production of this
website. All brand names of the drugs listed in this site are the trademarks of
the companies listed after them in the pages about the drugs, even though those companies
may or may not have been acquired by other companies who may or may not be listed in this
site by the time you read this. Always read the PI sheet that comes with your medications
and never ever throw them away. If you didn't get a PI sheet, demand one.
Loudly.
Crazy Meds is not responsible for the content of sites we provide links to.
We like them, or they're paid advertisements, or they're something you should
read to make an informed decision about a particular med. Sometimes
they're more than one of those things. But what's on those sites is their business, not ours.
Very little information about visitors to this site is collected or
saved. And from time to time I do look at search terms used to find it in an effort
to make the information I present more relevant. Use only as directed. Void where
prohibited.
