by the way re: my previous post, i feel like a few of you might want to know that there's a thing in pharmacology called a medicine's half-life (which varies depending on the med), during which a quarter of the dose you took is still in your body and working.

everyone who takes any medication should be aware of it, but imo people who take antidepressants should especially know what this shit is because it can very easily make or break the deal.

example: i was prescribed 50mg of sertraline. the amount in my body on the first day i took it was 50mg, but on the second day it was 50mg + ¼ of the 50mg from the previous day, because Zoloft (and any other sertraline med) has a half-life of 24 hours. That ¼ did me in. I lowered the dose to 25mg daily, now i'm fine.

the takeaway is: look up the half-life of your meds and have the dose adjusted accordingly if the stacking of dose + half-life makes you feel bad!! meds are supposed to make you feel more functional, so if you feel worse, it means you're taking too much! talk to your doctor!!

Am I crazy or is it kinda stupid that antidepressants are considered addictive? They're addictive in the sense that "the body is trying very hard to kill the patient and these make it more difficult for it to". Are cancer patients addicted to thier chemo pills?

Day 13 Drawtober :: OCtober (Old Character Art)

I haven't drawn Cel since more or less the same week I created her, sometime mid-2012/2013

Old art of her:

I actually never colored her and the original journal with her only has about 4 drawings of her. Still really like her outfit though, I'm glad I didn't loose her design.

🌟💊-Welcome!-💊🌟

Heyo, I’m Mouthy (@mouthydraws), welcome to my funny pill blog! I’m an autistic artist with a special interest in pharmacology, specially psychiatric medications, more specifically antidepressants, even more specifically SSRIs. A lot of the stuff I post here will be older until I’m able to catch up, but that hopefully won’t take too long!

New blog for my medication personifications? First post obviously has to be the SSRI lineup from 2022, here come the white-tailed deer ready to fight for your mental health!

From left to right: Zelmid (zimelidine), Luvox (fluvoxamine), Prozac (fluoxetine), Zoloft (sertraline), Paxil (paroxetine), Celexa (citalopram), and Lexapro (escitalopram)

SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) are a class of antidepressants used to treat a variety of mental illnesses, most notably anxiety disorders and depression. They’re my absolute favorite class and the reason I’m currently in college for pharmacology. Prozac’s history in particular is my favorite to read about, so expect plenty of him and his history lol.

F.A.Q.

What are personified pills?

Personified pills are, as the name suggests, personifications of medications. Each aspect of the character, from their design to their personality, is carefully chosen based on historical, chemical, and pharmacological aspects of the actual medication. I enjoy drawing the characters in scenes that reference the real-life history of said drug.

Are these your OCs?

Yes. While I don’t own the idea of personifying medications, the designs and characters themselves do belong to me. You’re welcome to design your own personifications, or use mine with credit!

Why are they animals/furries?

Each class of drugs is a different animal species, I think it adds a lot to the characters, and specific animals are chosen in the same way every other aspect of the characters are chosen. Having the characters be animals also allows for clear distinctions between drug classes. I don’t enjoy drawing humans, but even if I did, I’d still keep them as animals.

Do you have a personification for *insert medication here*

All of my personifications are on my Toyhouse (@mouthydraws) under the ‘Medications’ folder. It can take some background knowledge on the class of the drug/possible subclasses or categories to find some of them, so I’ll also be uploading all of them here and using tags to make them easier to locate. If you have a specific medication you want to see, feel free to let me know!

Will you personify illegal drugs?

Given that most illegal drugs either didn’t start out as illegal or are only illegal in certain forms/circumstances, yes. I’ve started on the opioid personifications, and diacetylmorphine (her0in) is definitely going to be a part of that, as well as ADHD medications, which means m3thamphetamine hydrochloride (crystal m3th) is also on the horizon.

Are real people/names included in character lore?

No, I try to keep real people out of the personified pill lore, as it is fiction that’s simply based on actual events. A lot of the history behind these medications can be upsetting, and I do my best to treat these events with the respect they deserve. I’ll talk a lot about drug companies (Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Novartis, AstraZeneca, etc. etc.) but I won’t mention anyone specific lore-wise. I enjoy talking about drug history OUTSIDE of these characters, and will probably do that here too (with appropriate tags of course).

My inbox is always open, but I’m more active on Instagram and Twitter (@mouthydraws). I post a lot of WIPs and general pharmacology ramblings on my Instagram stories, so if you’re interested come check it out! I’m always looking for more pharmacology mutuals!!

I appreciate that my parents no longer make me explain why my skin is super itchy when I wear certain clothes, why I cringe when I hear certain noises or touch certain fabrics, why I need to close my eyes and put my headphones in when a lot of people are around, why I need to step away from family gatherings, or why I need to lay with my weighted blanket for a while.

They just kinda accept that I'm sensitive because of GAD, and that medication makes it better, and that I'm happy when I listen to my body and calm my mind. It has always been loud in my head, but now it's quieting down, and I like it like that. It feels cleaner and less cluttered.

I think the hardest part of being on anti-depressants is trying to decide if I wanna feel numb all the time or if I wanna be a self destructive mess that feels too much.

#I wanna be okay #like that’s it #I just wanna be able to not fucking cry during work and I wanna be able to eat and I wanna use my keys without my hands shaking #I went off them too long bc I thought weed worked more and I didn’t have to feel anything but now the weed isn’t working #idk with weed I had an escape for a really long time #but being high everyday for months at a time makes me feel like shit #it’s not fun anymore #celexa #this is not a dig at celexa #when she works she works

Up the Hill

I am out looking for a cure. What happened to me I am not sure. It seems I had lost myself. Somewhere, I am locked up and on the shelf.

Roaming this world in the dark. Wondering If I am special enough to make a spark. I just want to get back to the light. I know that means that I must fight.

Fight for what I love. Fight for my Life. I will rise above. I will overcome the Strife.

med tw / hospitalization tw / vent

zoloft ended up getting me sent to the ER frequently from extreme side effects, changing meds starting tomorrow, (zoloft to a low dose of celexa) feeling pretty scared.

zo was doing pretty well helping with my depression & ptsd, but the anxiety attacks, increased psychosis from insomnia, and what it did to my heart was not worth it

I hope I'm doing the right thing, listening to my body and all.

I'll be starting therapy & shit later this month, hoping things go well, wish my body wasn't so weak. I just want life to be less painful.

By the way, Dr. Lang keeps this is this is this prescribing

Celexa

This is what this is gaslighting hell doctor you’re jealous you’re a fucking piece of shit you’re a misogynist

And Sidney Jones has fucking jokes

Exactly because Sidney Jones will never be from Australia. Meanwhile, Australia is like oh my god are you a blue healer? Do you know what maybe I am.

I’ll tell you guys what when a princess of Saudi Arabia can be out of the closet that’s the day you guys can call yourselves gay princesses

As far as all of this technology abuse, I don’t need to worry terribly do I who knows I wish we lived in a less corrupt country

Everybody’s corrupt Dennis why don’t you get a nice big cup of reality, check motherfucker, and then Doctors laugh at me saying that I’m small minded

And then other people impersonate Doctors to make them look bad, so it’s getting really weird
