I'm only 25 and was prescribed lisnopril for high blood pressure. I also suffer from frequent headaches and migraines. Now the lisnopril actually did help with my headaches but the side effects are just too much. (Difficulty speaking, not myself, weakness) I made the decision to stop taking them. It's been 7 days and I literally can barely talk without my voice squeaking and sounding retarded. Im like on the verge of losing my job fuxk these poison pills like wtf do they give out to people.

    Please please refrain from taking yourself off medications without discussion with your GP.

    There is always a more suitable alternative

    I found your comment funny. I agree, i sound less stupid when i am not taking not mental health pills. Mental health drugs do something to the mind and put it in a state of relaxation, this is good when it comes to function and sleep, but when the mouth and breathing is incorporated into it, it can be problematic.
