Tardive dyskinesia. Been on the causative med quetiapine 400 mg for 20 years.Unable to get off it. Been creative. I am a registered nurse.
I am an inpatient acute mental health nurse actually - for the last 15 years. I also have Bipolar disorder on lithium. Very well controlled. But side effects of quetiapine were becoming impossible to live with. I tried aripiprazole and a reduction in quetiapine to a disastrous effect. I appeared severely

suicidal ideation TW
Trigger warning suicidal thoughts due to medication, I think. Hello, I have a very long list of mental health problems including pme and being on bipolar spectrum. I have recently had to change to aripiprazole from risperidone because Ris was affecting my health. Aripiprazole has been a whirlwind

Sleepy Girl Mocktail
While I'm very much into magnesium, and like cherry juice, I've not tried this - but the 'Sleepy Girl Mocktail' made the New York Times today: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/17/well/live/sleepy-girl-mocktail-cherry-magnesium.html More from the Cleveland Clinic last November: https://health.clevelandclinic.org

Today is the first time I have posted since joining. I am so afraid of being judged that I have not had the courage to share, even here!
I think my depression and anxiety have heightened to a point where I can hardly focus on tasks. My brain spins through scenarios that just occurred like it is recapping the moment and it just gets stuck in a loop. Is this ADHD or something like that or is it depression? Does this happen to anyone else

Peginterferon and nightmares
Just wondering if anyone has experienced nightmares whilst take peginterferon alpha 2a. I have noticed some sleep disturbance and last week, my 8th injection, I was asked to increase dose to 90. My platelets had dropped since starting on 45 from 864 to 706 but still high. After my 2nd 90 dose I am experiencing

Question
Besides having PTSD and anxiety, I'm also Type 1 Diabetic. I'm on the fence about getting a service dog. I think one would help a lot not only with my PTSD/anxiety, but also my Type 1 Diabetes, since its uncontrolled. Part of me wants to get one because I think it would really help in my everyday life

Ultralow biomass biome - EMMA result pre-FET
Hi friends, Thanks to everyone who posts in this forum. I've found it so helpful. I've just received my EMMA test result, which has come back as "ULTRALOW BIOMASS BIOME". I previously had 63% lactobacillus and 29% gardnerella. I did the antibiotic followed by two rounds of probiotics. My doctor

Low dose Naltrexone or Suboxone. I'm seeing my doctor this week. Which one is best
After many years of RLS and coping quite well. First the dreaded mirapexin and then tramadol nothing is working at the moment. I was on 0.09 mg mirapexin. Now I'm on 50mg tram. Even if I take 100mgs it's not working so I'm obviously augmenting. Even Kratom isn't helping. I made an appointment with my

Feeling grumpy and frustrated
I'm trying to be positive and grateful! But I don't really get excited about much these days. I have lingering moments of joy, but most of my days are filled with racing thoughts and killing time basically until I can get back into bed. My motivation is not very great either. I stay in my comfort

Where do I go from here?
I've struggled with anxiety and panic attacks and depression since I was 4 years old. I thought I was doing better and then this week I started having unprovoked panic attacks again. I lost my ability to speak for 24 hours. It was terrifying. Should I look into IOP or PHP? Is outpatient just not enough

Swapping Rasagiline for Safinamide - Hobson’s Choice or out of the frying pan and into the fire?
I have been on Rasagiline from the start. 8 years as my staple bedrock of my cocktail of PD drugs principally Ropinirole, Amantadine and of course Co-Careldopa. I have a pacemaker and take Atorvastatin and Ramipril for heart issues. Now the pharmacy says Rasagiline is in short supply in the UK and likely

Phenelzine
it worked for me incredibly well. No restless legs going on2 years. Phenelzine is a maoMao inhibitor with the differencethaydifference that it only raises dopamine in the central nervous central system. LIfe changer for me, but make you talk to a drDr, so many medicines can interact.

Devil's Claw alternative medication
Hi all, I've been on Pregabalin and Duloxetine for a while. This has some impact but still suffer daily pain. I use Turmeric massage oil which does offer some relief for a while. We have a local health care shop who has prescribed Devil's Claw which I have been taking for two weeks. I do believe it

Bupropion and insomnia
I recently started the long-acting (24-hour)form of bupropion and it appears to be causing insomnia. I am wondering if taking the SR (12-hour) formulation just once daily in the morning would solve the insomnia problem while still being effective for depression. Does anyone have any experience taking

Bad cold sore should I wait to inject Methotrexate?
I was at the dentist last Thursday - not my usual one - and she was a bit rough! She split my lip in the corner and it's came out with large cold sores which are not healing! 😔 I'm considering not injecting today to give them a better chance to heal - what do you think? They're sore and I can't eat
