I just don't know why - I am sooooo grumpy, and feel arg today.
I don't know what mood I'm in, not sure if I'm going through hypomania or slight depression. But i know I'm feeling guilty and hating myself for it.
not sure if it has anything to do with me stopping my Edronax (AD) and starting Molipaxin.
But i hate this feeling of just wanting to argue

that is very expressive, I can imagine how you feel
Can you call your doctor and tell him. did you taper your endronax?

Hang in there, its always horrible when you are changing meds but it does get better. Once the new drug sets in it will be better.

i'm a bit of a coward, when my head starts spinning out and getting all agro and upset etc, I crash out with some nice sleeping tabs and wake up in the morning all better. During the day I take multiple breaks to stop myself smashing anyone in the face or saying something I shouldn't...

Hang in there..

i was thinking about the sleeping tablet thing, but right now cannot even see the grass being greener on the other side.
I figured emoticons were the only way to try express myself - there just aren't any words.
i kind of tapered my Edronax (Reboxetine) which is a Noradrenaline re-uptake inhibitor (NARI) I was on 1, then up to 1.5 tabs. I then went down to 1 tab, but took my last one y/day morning. Maybe should have done 2 days or so at 1/2 a tablet.

glad you are feeling better! The sleeping thing... is it a possible side effect from new meds? Do they cause drowsiness? Mine were making me sleep 12-14 hrs a day a one point!

*hugs*

allme - yes, the Molipaxin does cause sleepiness. So I take them at night. But the sleep thing has been happening for a while before i even started the new meds.

Today I feel like I'm bouncing. Just reading up on the meds again... They are also Psychoanaleptics; according to Wiki, they therefore cause an "arousing effect" on patients. Hence they are anti-depressants. Now just wondering if my mood stabiliser is on too low a dose (My new T pointed this out) and I tihnk I may be on my to a (hypo)manic phase.
whoop whoop.
anyone that knows meds well can maybe offer me some insight - 50mg Molipaxin and 400mg Epilim (sodium Valporate) - good idea?
really, bouncing badly.
think the grumpy me part was def the start of hypomania!!!
