Seeking non-pharma ADHD interventions/suggestions
We have a VERY STRONG history of

in our family, particularly my brother, who was dx-ed and placed on Ritalin at age 6 in the 1980s and still struggles with substances which has had terrible fallout for all of us, so I am hesitant out of the box to use meds until our daughter is old enough to

Viibryd worked for anyone?
It seems I have been on every antidepressant known with no avail...benzos worked for the anxiety but I cannot take them anymore due to
addiction
. They have now put me on Viibryd and my anxiety has gone through the roof.

Liver pain and stomach cramping
The power of
addiction
is scary but i now realize I cannot put my self in any type of temptation. It seems this has happened to my stomach before but only with lots of hard liquor not only beer like I drank last night. I have to surrender to higher power and am going to AA Monday.

Hypnosis totally reset my brain.
Hypnosis is incredible, especially for those of us who have ever struggled with Anxiety, depression,
addiction
or anything self-destructive and negatively ruling your life hypnosis is worth your time.

So...I guess the journey begins
(I never used to bother with this aspect of the fitbit but once I did start checking it has become a bit of an
addiction
- if only to reinforce how I actuaIly know I feel...because GP didn't seem to take me seriously) So all in all I am feeling MUCH better, relative to how AWFUL I was feeling last week

My running addiction and knee pain
I haven't run for a whole week (for the first time since starting C25K in August) and I'm soooo miserable. Last Saturday's run was great - a steady 35 minutes with Laura's stamina podcast over a familiar route (mix of tarmac and grass and mostly level). Then on Sunday while pottering around in town I

A little update. Might be useful for some
Unbeknown to me this product now has the
addiction
of sweeteners in it. Why O why they have to put sweeteners in a product you are drinking for energy is beyond me. I have known for a while that most non diet fizzy drinks have the addition of sweeteners in because I found out the hard way.

Cholesterol meds and the liver and history of past heavy drinking ( but not now)
I drink rarely, although I used to drink heavily but never had abnormal tests nor did I drink to the point of physical
addiction
such as having DTs when I stopped, etc. I have high cho,sterol, familial, and am on a cholesterol drug.

A few words about addiction....
A quiet day at work so I thought I would add my pennyworth to the whole 'running is addictive' debate. You may recall that Pavlov had some dogs. He rang a bell and gave the dogs some food, After a time, the dogs salivated whenever they heard the bell. They were conditioned through a process of reinforcement

Friends Probable GCA
She saw her GP yesterday who has prescribed sleeping tablets which she does not want to take for fear of
addiction
. She mentioned having a DEXA scan at my suggestion and her GP said she doesn’t have any obvious osteoporosis so refused to order one.

Is there any one who has endo in the bowel? I'm at the end of my rope.
I know opioid
addiction
is something i don't want or need but they haven't given me any alternatives. If a dog was in this much pain they would put it down. Please give me anything to try? I've had the pill, injection,gnr,3 laparoscopys and most recently the coil.

Morphine Management
Has anyone tried morphine for, say, five days and then perhaps a two day break to avoid
addiction
? Just an idea, as loathe drugs, steroids and orthodox medicine generally but it would be stupid not to acknowledge they have their place and thank heaven for that.
