As to meds, no, I don't respond to them reliably. I've tried Seroquel, but not the others you mention, so I'm not sure about them. My doc is away anyway, so I'm out of luck until April when she expects to be back.
On we go. |
Thanks, Daonnachd.
Sorry to hear that your doc is away. That must be very frustrating. I'm surprised she isn't doing telepsychiatry or anything like that, but I know that lots of people are having a hard time reaching their therapists and pdocs right now, so it's a real struggle for many people on this forum.
I hope you're able to get exercise at some point, like when it's warmer and such. I think it's always good to switch up your activities throughout the day so that you get different kinds of mental stimulation, so it's great that you have lots of creative ideas you can follow. I hope they provide some sort of relief for you.
Btw, ever thought about indoor cycling trainers? I mean like these:

Might be worth a peek at. I don't know what your budget is like right now, but perhaps in the future, you could do something like that for when it's cold outside? I think the trainer tires like the Tacx are pretty cheap. Or, you can obviously just go with an indoor exercise bike, which may be cheaper.
