Waiting for the day I have no access to my therapy drugs. But hey I'm sure I can just up and move on a whim like I was suggested. Not knowing whether or not I have the means to do that which I do not. Just fine...

Target has 96 count containers for under $10.

This sleep aid works much better than the other OTC sleep aids such as diphenhydramine.

Losing my good insurance. Have no clue how I'll afford Latuda. Even the generic is thousands of dollars.

I'm watching Naked and Afraid right now, absorbing my attention. I use xanax to sleep. Thanks for asking
