Soma in sixty seconds





Created with Art-pad an online painting tool/toy that has the nifty feature of replaying images you just painted, stroke by stroke.

I had an hour with nothing better to do ( actually I had lots of better things to do, but they'll have to wait). I painted Opi8's mascot Soma ( as I usually do when I don't have any ideas of my own ) , in uncharacteristicly vibrant colours, because they didn't have any skin tone on offer and I suck at colour mixing and the whole thing got slower than a ZX spectrum towards the end.

My name is Maria Mody and i would like to show you my personal experience with Soma.

I am 52 years old. Have been on Soma for 2 days now. This drug, at 350 mg/day, did relieve the spasms in back and shoulders quite well. It allowed me to sleep well also. But for me, the side effects are heavy duty, so I would only use if the spasms are cripplingly painful. I had NO weird side effects with Zanaflex, although that doesn't work as well, nor with 5mg of Valium, but that's a bad drug to come off of. So, Soma's good for spasms but can have some disturbing side effects. AND: don't abuse this drug! If you do you'll end up a vegetable, and ruin things for people who really need it for pain.

I have experienced some of these side effects-
Soma gave me a dry mouth, and made me feel paralyzed. It gave me a strange spaced-out feeling, and almost felt like it was causing my muscles to quiver. Also upset my stomach, gassy and then blocked.

I hope this information will be useful to others,
