This is a community for fans of the website CrazyMeds and others looking for information about psychiatric medications, sharing experiences with medication, to meet other people that are 'mentally interesting' and for medication experience sharing. This communities focus isn't as a support community, I have linked some of those communities more focused on support below.
'Think of it as a safe space to just do what you want, with others who are considerate. Very little will be off topic. You can ask about naming your pets, or you can ask about medications. You can ask about therapy, or you can talk about how your job amused you. Whatever you want.'
