Cartoon-A-Thon by: Chato B. Stewart For Mental Health Month

Meds part 2

Med Management is important, as I said, in the last post. Yet, some times it’s the side- effects that make compliance so difficult. Yesterday’s cartoon focused on the effect that makes you run to the bathroom every ten seconds. I love the cartoon bushes gag, cause, as many of you know, when you got to go…YOU GOT GO!

Now as we all know, many mood stabilizers for mental disorders like Depakote, Lithium, Zyprexa, Risperdal, Seroquel, Geodon, and Abilify that are approved to treat acute mania and other disorders have some of the same side-effects. Still, the side- effects are nothing when compared to what the illness will do with out the meds. Even though we joke about them, PLEASE… STAY ON YOUR MEDS! Even if they cause you the same side-effect as in today’s cartoon.

Check in tomorrow and as we tackle Bipolar Rapid Cycling.

Stay up-to-date with the new cartoons and other fun stuff with my RSS feed.
