I took trazodone and prazosin and they worked somewhat but I still would have problems sleeping. The seroquel is working a little better but I still wake up frequently. I guess I am just wirried about the dose. I dont even feel groggy in the morning either and I have read that people feel like...
My dr upped my seroquel to 600mg before I go to bed. I thought seroquel makes you tired but it takes 2 hrs before I am ready to sleep. Is that common? My dr said he might have to give me a higher dose. I take it for sleep and moods. He just told me I am bipolar also with the ptsd. i also take...
As far as gender, no. But it has affected me in the sense that I dont trust men of a certain ethnicity. I'm talking about sexual relationships only.
Not sure how common that is.
I understand how you feel. I only step outside to go to my therapist. I completely panic at the thought. I tried yesterday to walk to my mailbox and heard someone talking in the distance my heart stopped then started beating so fast I jumped the voice scared me. I hope you are able to go on that...
Nothing has changed im still living with that monster anger. I had hoped that since im taking so many meds I would be feeling better and sleeping better. No such luck. Still have that urge to cut myself everyday. Really tired of fighting.
Well I think my body is getting used to the high dose. I was hoping ut would do more for my depression but not really. I would think with all the meds I take I would be happy but not happening. My anxiety is still pretty bad some days too. I so just wanna give up!
Ok the last few days have been weird. I take effexor 300 mg in the morning along with propranolol, blood pressure med and thyroid med. I take another propranolol in the afternoon. At night I take prozasin and trazodone. So a few nights ago about 2 hours after I took my last meds I stood up off...
I have alot of anger toward several people for different reasons. I know why im angry I know that I have good reason to be angry. But I was taught at a young age that everyone mattered more than me and to just sit back and be quiet. I carried that with me all my life and let others control me...
Ive been believing lies all my life too. My mother was always telling me I wasnt good enough. It didnt matter what I did. She was an alcoholic and addicted to valium. I spent my childhood taking care of her. Always afraid she was dead when she passed out. So I believed all the lies and I still...
Thanks for all the replys! I dont have any memory loss yet and I hope it stays that way. Although it would be nice to just forget my traumas then maybe the pain would be gone!
Ive been taking effexor xr for a few months. My dr just upped my dose to 300mg. I have read that people taking effexor have memory loss. Does anyone know if this is true and does it affect everyone that takes it? I also take other meds I dont know if that contributes to it?
Ive been taking it for about 2 months. Dr just upped my dose to 4mg. I still have nightmares but it is getting a little better. My dreams are so vivid now sometimes when I wake up I feel like im still dreaming.
Well I had my last appt with him yesterday. It went really good he didnt act like he did last week. He did say he is moving me out of crisis therapy to regular therapy. I guess he thinks im not suicidal anymore. I told him if I wasnt on so many meds I wouldnt appear to be doing as good as he...
