Eslicarbazepine vs EXTENDED PHENYTOIN SODIUM

No one really had any knowledge so I thought I would do a post about my experience just incase anyone in future has the same question. I did 2 days of ayahuasca ceremonies a few days a

Hi All After years of freedom, last year took an unexpected toll, where many breakthroughs had happened. I was diagnosed with Epilepsy 10+ years ago and the first port of call was Tegretol, which was titrated to 800mg twice daily and then reduced to 600mg twice daily as it proved toxic and left fro

I figured I would share this with the community. I asked my vet (also a neurologist) if they could send a phenobarbital refill to my local Walgreens. About six hours ago I gave my dog his first dosage from this refill and he’s acting very “off” and his pupils are extremely dilated. I’ll be callin

Well, since that day I made the post i've been staying with my

**TL;DR at bottom** For context: I've been married to my wife for ~10 years and we're a mixed-race couple (I'm Asian and she's Caucasian). I've gotten along with her family (MIL, BIL, SIL), but I always felt like her FIL and other SIL (Sarah) never liked me. I'm a professionally trained chef with 15

I don't know when you're going to read this, but I can tell you when it started: I was out for a walk alone in the woods when the entity came for me. It was beyond a blur. It was, for lack of a better term, absence of meaning. Where it hid, there were no trees; where it crept closer, there was no gr
