Things used to make me lose my temper until I began taking medication. If I didn’t have control of a situation, I looked for something I can control like leaving the house, pulling my hair or tearing something as hard as possible. Otherwise I would leave the area, collect my thoughts and text the other person I was out of control because I couldn’t control or have a say over anything.

I am on generic lexapro too. I’m also on a thc break for my job and I’m annoyed that it kills my memory. I forget something when leaving a room because my hands are always holding my bowl, grinder, lighter and green. My YouTube home page is also showing tons of pros about detox, better sleep, mental clarity and more. Dm me if you want to talk.
