Struggling.. Again
Hi everyone. I'm having trouble with my mental health so it's hit and miss coming on here. I'm waiting for help but trying to help myself by eating okay and working out. Then I get a blip and completely fall off and screw up with eating. And I've relapsed into binge eating for comfort. Except its onlt

Medication question
Has anyone been on a sedating antipsychotic that still allowed them to look after their children in the night? I'm on aripiprazole and while it has worked, I've just had it increased (going through a bad spell with my bipolar) and it is causing extreme anxiety and agitation. I also have chronic sleep

Opioid induced loss of appetite
I'm currently taking Buprenorphine, but it seems to be causing a major loss of my appetite. Does anyone know if either Suboxone or Methadone are better in regard to appetite suppression? I can't tell you how important you all are to all of us trying to deal with titration off of these terrible DA's

Asking employer for accommodations - yes, no, maybe?
Quick background:BCRed about 2.5 years after adjuvant RT to prostatic bed after RARP. Started Firmagon in May 2022 after nothing seen on PSMA PET/CT with PSA at 0.4. Switched to Orgovyx in November since injection site reaction was compromising QoL. Just before BCR was detected, I started taking adderall

Neupro Patch
I saw a consultant in the UK a month or so ago and explained that my transition from Mirapexin to Pregabalin was not going well. At that time, I was taking 150mg Pregabalin and 4 x 0.088 Mirapexin and that at that level i was getting some relief but that any reduction from that in the Mirapexin left

CPAP Machines and Chest Infections
Recently, I had a flare up of Bronchiectasis. I was issued Doxy that has helped and I'm due for a CT Scan in a couple of weeks. I was pondering why it suddenly flared up and my wife suggested my CPAP machine. I thought I was pretty good at keeping the reservoir, hose and mask free from mould. However

I should be proud but I am not.
Well today was quite the little rollercoaster. I had a job interview today, for a promotions position at a casino, basically to help source and secure prizes for giveaways and help coordinate headliners coming in to do shows, plus a lot of MC-ing apparently. The pay is pretty good, solid benes and free

I had a craniotomy 2014. Acquired TBI. My husband is a veteran. He too has ptsd but there is no way he will admit it. I have ptsd too. The horrible world situation is too much for me.

menthol tingling sensation
So I thought I was going crazy… had a menthol sensation starting from my chest and radiating down my arms and hands, I was about to rush off to the nearest emergency… but having to stop myself knowing that this has happened before, but it still does not stop that feeling of OMG I’m having a heart attack

FND diagnosis and not coping well with it
Saw neurologist today for my brain MRI results. Confirmed results as normal , no abnormalities seen. Wasn’t shown MRI which I thought I would . Diagnosed me with FND as symptoms not relative to any other neurological disorder. Been told no medication will help , it’s all in my sub conscious/mind and

Hypothyroidism
Oh and in 2016 I was diagnosed with a type of
bipolar
disorder
; Cyclothymia and put on antipsychotic meds. I’m not entirely convinced this is not a coincidence and connected in some way. Anyway, back to the thyroid issues….I’m now on a dose of 350mcg daily and yet I still feel like rubbish!

Afib, sleep apnea and diverticulitis from aerophagia
Hi. I have afib and sleep apnea. As you know, some think that sleep apnea may be a causitive factor in afib. I have been using cpap and bipap machines for some years for the apnea, and have a problem of swallowing air (aerophagia). Before the improvements in cpap technology, I would wake up after a
