Their lucky charms sonas,,,,,,,
was laughing hysterically to myself while making this
you may listen to fall out boy but i listen to them in a more mentally ill and profound way

"I found the cure to growing older
And you're the only place that feels like, home
Just so you know, you'll never know
Some secrets were meant to be told
But I found the cure to growing older"

Is this... is this a picture of Rihanna meeting Fall Out Boy
One sad boi to end the year 💔
Remember in like 2003-2007ish when ugly gray/tan t-shirts were a common thing? That was my inspiration here. Also laser dinosaur.
favorite lyrics - fall out boy
just had a horrible vision pls hold
“‘I wanna sleep on every piece of fuzz/And stuffing that comes out of you" from “Hold Me Tight,” which lead vocalist Patrick Stump says is a “quintessential Pete lyric.’ “That one stood out to me as, like, ‘I don’t even know if I get it. I’m gonna sing that, though. It just feels like [Pete], and it feels like his way of saying things. You read that and you’re like, ‘I think he’s trying to be romantic?’ But there’s something really natural in that.”
— PATRICK youre so fucking valid
Had a doc appt (just my yearly checkup) a couple days ago and I asked her about checking to see if my measles vaccine from when I was a kid was still good, since I’d heard it could lose effectiveness over time. She nodded and had a lab done and turned out I was NOT still immune to measles, so got my booster today.
Get your vaccines, folks!
“I have a question about a vaccine,” I say, and the look of ‘god fuckin dammnit not again’ that flashed across this poor doctor’s face, followed by abject relief when I said “I’ve heard that the measles vaccine can lose effectiveness over time and I’d like to make sure mine is still good.” says everything really.
“Oh thank god,” she literally said. “Yes of course. That’s true, and we can do a blood test and see. If you don’t still have antibodies we can get you a booster scheduled.”
“That question goes poorly a lot, doesn’t it,” I say.
“You have no idea.”
Boosting this (lol, pun unintended but allowed to stand with pride) and adding: measles often needs updating in adulthood, they’ll usually throw in a rubella update with it; chickenpox might also need updating, mine did; and get your whooping cough updated, especially if you spend time around pregnant folk or small babies. (I say this from an Australian perspective.)
psa to everyone on antipsychotics during the summertime
some antipsychotics can make you more susceptible to heat exhaustion because they make it so your body cannot regulate your body temperature correctly. I learned this the hard way last summer, I got really nasty heat exhaustion while on a high dose of quetiapine. so check if your meds react badly to heat, and if they do, please be sure to wear your sunscreen, have light cover ups on or with you, wear a hat, and stay hydrated! be safe
especially duloxetine and clozapine, know the signs of dehydration, take cooling breaks if you have to be in the sun
duloxetine is commonly branded in the USA as Cymbalta.
Note: many anti-bipolar meds are also antipsychotics. I found a list of psychotropic meds that can increase risk of heat exhaustion here:
Can personally confirm that Latuda/Lurasidone can also mess with your heat response and lead to heat exhaustion if you aren’t careful, like I wasn’t.
whilst i am always and forever just begging doctors to properly check interactions before they prescibe things (@ pharmacists: fuck everyone else i respect you i love you xoxo)
i am in fact also begging everyone to read the leaflets you get with your medication. if you have difficulty reading or understanding those leaflets that's fine just like... ask the pharmacist. never met one who wasn't happy to explain drugs.
but like...
"SSRIs make you less tolerant of heat" should not be a shock - it's in the leaflet. they make you sweat, give you hot flashes, and make your skin more sensitive to the sun. that's all in there.
"mixing alcohol and benzos is a Bad Time" is not a shock. it's in the leaflet to avoid alcohol.
"my ADHD meds made me not want to eat" is not a shock. it's in the leaflet that they cause appetite suppression and weight loss.
you do not have to "find out the hard way" you really don't. and bc doctors are fuckin useless at bothering to actually read and/or understand and/or explain interactions like... ever, apparently? there are plenty of places you can check for yourself or, again, just ask the pharmacist if there's anything to watch out for.
i mean asking a pharmacist about interactions is basially asking them to infodump about their hyperfixation. you're asking someone who thinks drugs are really cool to talk about drugs they are not going to be upset about this.
oh hey my grandma was a nurse too!
the amount of people who don't read them and then later are like "WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS" *pinches nose bridge* they did. it was in the leaflet.
And if you lose the leaflet, or can't read the print, or whatever, DRUGS.COM
It's got, like, every medication ever, with pictures and everything, and all the side effects, AND a really handy interactions checker.
love drugs.com for that. only site that has the full full list of side effects (go to the 'for professionals' section) and their interaction checker is great as well bc it does also include supplements and recreational drugs in the database. i personally prefer the go.drugbank.com checker but only because i'm a supermassive nerd and gives you all the technical mechanisms behind the interaction. plus you can go full nerd and look at the complete pharmacology of anything. which is probably only parsable by, like, 5 people who follow me but it is really cool though
anyway if, unlike me, you're a normal person drugs.com is absolutely your best friend outside of an actual pharmacist
Cannot stress enough how important this is. I'm allergic to an antibiotic & was once given another medication that was not that medication but was contraindicated for ppl with that allergy. My allergy info is up to date with my pharmacy... but their computer missed that, or they didn't check. (My doctor DEFINITELY didn't.)
That kind of mistake can kill a person. Always check.
