roll call 43

That sounds good! I have a bunch of Cymbalta here but when I try it now it makes me horribly nervous and dysphoric. I remember feeling that way in the hospital too when they first gave it to me and it did wear off so I'm wondering if I could brave sticking it out to get back on it.

I'll listen to you whether you take meds or not. I just don't always know what to say. I agree with you too, meds aren't everything. For some people meds aren't the answer period. I don't talk about it much but sometimes I don't take my meds. I hate how they make me feel and sometimes I just get so fed up with it. It's awful. I'm sorry you're feeling like you can't share here. I've said this before and I'll say it again, I like your posts because they help me feel less isolated in what I'm going through. That matters to me and I care about you.

Yeah, they can be a bit like that for the first few weeks but it wares off... I barely notice I'm taking Citalopram anymore. That said, best to talk to a doctor or your p-doc about it... self-medicating might not be the wisest even if you've been on it before.

Definitely worth following up with though.

thank you for this.
thank you for reiterating what youve said before. thanks for reminding me

Newtus I really do feel like you just ignore me though when I think I'm being supportive. I'll post a reply to you and you don't acknowledge it. So I'm not sure you want anything from me specifically. Maybe from the others.

i sent you a message saying that i didnt know ignored you. because i dont mean to do that. i dont understand because we talked yesterday and i thought we had a good talk. what did i miss?

Oh, sorry, I looked but didn't see you'd replied to that. It's just been several times but if it isn't intentional, which I didn't think it was, it's OK.

Im going to tell my psychiatrist about the concerta abuse. I'm in bad situation. I don't know how to tell them. The only reason I am is because staying awake and doing school work isn't an option. I'm ashamed

ya i do. but im trying to eat gluten and dairy free as much as i can as well as foods low in the amino acid tyrosine cuz tyrosine turns into dopamine in the brain. i like japanese food better than chinese food tho

well my favorite food is noodles. thats why i like chinese food. i dont like meat much. im also lactose intolerant. my sister just found out shes allergic to wheat. so shes been eating gluten free foods.

i would like to learn more about foods that turn into dopamine. id like to hear more. im not good with scientific talk tho. lol.

Ugh, morning guys...

I've been really lacking in motivation & been napping all the time the past few days. Abilify seems to be going the same route as Amisulpride did for me. I actually skipped a dose last night so I could be productive today but I best not make a habit of that... will have to bring all this up with my p-doc & see what he says.

The ironic thing is Olanzapine which I was on years ago was sedating but it wore off during the morning, I don't think it's that. I'm guessing I just have low dopamine in one part of my brain but high in another causing the psychosis. I am wondering whether all meds would do the same or if them binding to different receptors would mean there would be another that wouldn't have this effect for me.

I am having a snack fest---kit-kat bar and some cheetos----oh and all my resolutions to exercise more failed about 14 days ago---Oh well...
