[weirdpersonifiedpills]

🌟💊-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!!

Like, psychiatric diagnoses are a complex phenomenon and they are often wrongly framed as prediscursive and apolitical they are sometimes helpful and sometimes harmful and have a VERY fraught history. And the same is true of psychiatric medications. But a year and a half ago, my doctor was like, I hear you saying you "don't" "have" "ocd," but how about we just TRY you on this medication we give people with ocd to see if it makes you less afraid, and if it doesn't, you can stop taking it. And I was like, well, I am very afraid, so, sure, might as well try. And now I am like 65% less afraid, and I no longer have to knock on my head three times to prevent tragedy when I verbally or even silently-in-my-own-head acknowledge that something is going or might go well, and I no longer believe that if I don't consume the right teas and right snacks in the right order the right amount of time before bed I will never fall asleep, and I no longer have to indulge several other much more insane and inconvenient superstitions that I'd rather not list, lol.

counted up alllll my tw fic and it's... 170k words 🙃 in 14 months 🙃 and im still not sick of these assholes. dude im gonna be here for a whileee. head in hands

My house is a mess, and not in a cute "teehee it's so disheveled," it's "girl you live like this" - like some things haven't moved since I got here. Tons of cardboard boxes, many empty, some full, scattered haphazard around not-set-up fans, a mostly-assembled cabinet, a TV with a missing screw.....

I got fed up enough to stand up and DO something about it

And then I paced from room to room getting progressively more anxious, picked up a pizza box and a bag of recycling, and left it all behind me

... and spent 20 minutes picking up the trash that previous owners thoughtfully left scattered around the yard, some of it being Substances That Should NOT Be Named

Just washed my hands for about a minute and a half and doused them in rubbing alcohol twice and then used hand sanitizer thanks to an Unpleasant Surprise

So now I can bask in the satisfaction of a job well d THE HOUSE IS STILL A MESS AAAAAAAAAA

i swear half of my spoons are spent on "knowing I don't have enough spoons and trying to ration them out accordingly." And I have SO many hopes for my next psychiatric visit to give me magic drugs since this is sort of what my obscenely high dosage of focalin (after much trial and error with other meds) is supposed to help me DO.

i keep daydreaming about taking a pill, being filled with energy and purpose, and going through the house in a mad rush of cleanliness and self-actualization. Because literally, 2 days of that and it would be perfectly clean. 1 day of that and it would be great. But instead I pencil off entire weekends for this and do 1/6 of a task and oops that's all we had time for folks!! and i really have to rush to meet that end of weekend deadline and i'm exhausted at the end of it. bc again,

90% of the job is figuring out how to make it seem physically possible. and yes 2 of the tasks are actually something i can't physically do without hurting myself bc of my shoulder (and just need to grit my teeth and get through them) but most of them aren't. it's just. mental gymnastics to even picture myself doing it. arghhhhhhhhh

[precambrianpark]

loving decreasing meds until 1. i'm constantly neurotic paranoid and self conscious and 2. my insight begins to slip away and my compulsions get way harder to ignore #fun

I accidently closed a door over my foot and now it hurts

A Comprehensive Analysis on Eric Harris, 3.

Disclaimer: This analysis/psychoanalysis is limited only to analysis as a means to reflect and understand the people involved. It is strictly informative. Just like all of my posts, I am detached from the media I write about and solely focus on the people to understand their psychology, for others to gain insight. There is no room for me to romanticize or glorify anything I write because I am only here to explain. I understand and research, but I do not condone. Thank you.

note: This is all solely based on independent research. If I may be wrong with the medical aspects of this post, please correct me. I would appreciate it a lot.

Fluvoxamine Maleate

Just a few days before the shooting, Eric was promptly rejected from his application to serve in the marines. Despite his desirable qualities, he was rejected for the sole reason of being tested positive for consuming a prescripted drug after rejecting that he was off any medication. With a trace of Luvox in his system, theories speculate that the drug's side effects played a role on the events that have transpired. Luvox is a medication prescription drug that is used to treat mental illnesses such as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety, depression, and others. While there are positive effects, the downside are heightened sensations of dread, irritation, depression, and arising violent behaviors. It also has a chance to increase manic symptoms, especially if taken in particularly large doses.

Anti-depressant usage, effects of overdose, and detoxification

When taken over the prescribed dosage, Luvox can lead to increased agression and suicidal ideation and tendencies. Eric was in anger management therapy after being on probation alongside Dylan for attempting to steal a vehicle containing thousands worth of valuable electronics and tools. After getting caught, Eric openly expressed his difficulties in managing his anxiety and explosive anger issues that his counselor said, "he frequently blew up and often cried." Revealing that this influences his homicidal and suicidal thoughts, so he was prescribed Fluvoxamine, which is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRIs). These drugs increase the capacity of the brain to receive serotonin.

According to an interview with Eric's friends, they speculate that Eric was off his medication completely for sometime. Abruptly stopping medication can lead to the development of a more violent response. For some people, drugs are able to fix their chemical imbalances, but it can also lead to withdrawal symptoms of taken for over the duration of 6 weeks. Abruptly discontinuing anti-depressants can lead to rebound depression or relapse. Symptoms may return stronger than before. Furthermore, SSRI's such as Luvox and Prozac take about 5 days to linger in one's system before subsequently washing off.

In a period of 11 months, Eric and Dylan have been under a juvenile detention program at Jefferson County district — this was in 1998, just a year before the shooting. They were allowed to leave the program by early February 1999. After finishing, Eric wrote a letter contained in his juvenile diversion program file. He states, "I learned that thousands of suggestions are worthless if you still believe in violence."

After public demands for stricter regulations on SSRIs after the tragic shooting, Luvox was temporarily banned in 2002. By 2008, drug manufacturers had reformulated Luvox to a controlled-release version specifically designed to treat OCD, excluding indications for depression or anxiety. Subsequently, the FDA approved Luvox CR for the treatment of OCD. The label does not explicitly prohibit prescribing it to the pediatric population, it notes that the smallest dose "may not be appropriate" for children, without providing further explanation.

Eric was about 17 at the time of taking the medication, which means he is part of the pediatric population. Though it's still unclear if he was taking normal doses for a long period of time or taken more than what was prescribed, it is clear that there was negligence with prescribing a child a SSRI that has the posibility of worsening their already apparent symptoms.

Columbine was really a case that opened the public's eyes into the dysfunctional aspects of society and institutions, transcending even to the medical field.

The fact that my dumb ass hasn't taken my meds in what seems to be days now.

Got the brain screamies. My lord what the fuck are we yelling about now?

[melliotwrites]

I noticed that in the Genius annotations for If We Met Up Again it mentions Anthony having OCD! is there anything you can share about that?

In the scene where Joey and Anthony are researching their various interests, Anthony mentions he takes Fluvoxamine, which is an SSRI that is used to treat OCD (but also depression, bipolar disorder, etc.)

Part of the summarized content (specifically, the last scene in Act 1) is Joey and Anthony coming into conflict over one of the symptoms of Anthony's OCD: fixating on his ex. While it's part of how Anthony's neurodivergence affects his life, due to his own insecurities Joey reads it as Anthony holding a secret preference for Garrett over him, leading to conflict — and eventually If We Met Up Again, where Anthony, frustrated by thinking too much about Garrett, tries to burn him out of his life and mind (which of course doesn't really work.)

I hope you’re not on the ssris that numb your clit.

THEY WHAT??? They put me on fluvoxamine maleate and topiramate, I am trying to not kill myself, not getting to cum will definitely cause me to kill myself. I should have known not to trust therapists, clit damage wasn't mentioned.
