    Who cares what this living example for why you should take your meds has to say?

    I feel like all this attention it brought him only amplified his mental disorders. I sincerely hope that he is getting the help he clearly needs and that the media will leave him alone for the sake of his sanity.

        You know, Abilify would have probably cured the Hunter right away from the psychosis induced by the blood administration. Then he wouldn’t have to have his head cut off or fight a giant moon thing

          To be fair, Abilify would cure the hunter of the energy to do anything other than eat or sleep, which might not make for a very fun game.

          Abilify is fucking awful.

            Oh yeah. Worst med I was ever told to try. Hated life so much during it and gained so much weight.

            I don’t even know why my doc tried it. I don’t go to him anymore.

              Yeah it’s apparently a common first choice for bipolar (which is overly diagnosed). It made me gain a ton of weight, and then my doc was exclusively concerned about my weight from that point on, until I stopped going to him.

              Before that though, I was just like “I gained the weight because of a side effect from a med you gave me, for a condition that I don’t have. The weight is an issue that will be fixed if we look at the actual problem here, doc.”

              Ugh.
