ECT for Bipolar Disorder
I’m new here so please be kind. I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 about two months ago and I’m starting to think Lamotrigine is not enough. Has anyone ever tried electro-convulsive therapy? During a stint in a psych ward I saw this treatment help others but I’m honestly afraid of it.

Advice on medication
Hi Everyone, I've been offered medication as an alternative to the mini pill as I've tried Noriday which caused floods, and Desogestrel makes me bleed constantly. Norethisterone and Provera have been mentioned but I don't know which one to go on. I'm a bit weary of Norethisterone as Noriday made me

How to get over weight gain?
Hi all. I’ve never had a positive body image and I’ve been struggling with an eating disorder since 2018. For personal reasons and decided to start recovery in April 2022 and stop all the food restrictions. The first few months I ate enormous amounts of food and, obviously, it resulted in a weight

lorazepam effect in elderly
my father (89) has just been prescribed Lorazepam- he has dementia and has nightmares at night and poor sleep. The lorazepam seems to help him sleep but he’s in a terrible state during the day, very disoriented and depressed- he’s been on it 4 days and I’m worried - my question is should he keep taking

Alternative/Natural therapies for RLS
For those who want to manage their RLS without medication, there are recent science articles on Paeoniae Alba, a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. It seems interesting. I'm too far down the medication route but for those newly diagnosed or with milder RLS or those who do not want to take Alpha2Delta

I've decided to go with eight donor frozen oocytes and fertilise with fresh semen next week. Has anyone gone down this route?
The donor produced and froze 18 oocytes three weeks ago. So I'm hoping that means it's a lot stronger. Please do Share your stories especially if you are using the same method. I'm currently on progynova to prepare the lining of the womb and would appreciate any good tips or suggestions

Well real life got in the way there for this week with rain and work making the first few days far more hectic than planned.

Liothyronine and cellulite
Hi, just curious to know whether anyone else has experienced cellulite after taking T3 and if so have they found anything that helps reduce its appearance. Since being on T3 for a year I’ve developed significant cellulite on my legs and also weight gain - rather odd as it is supposed to increase cell

I've been dealing with a lot of issues lately. I was just diagnosed with PTSD and I am hoping that I will meet others that are dealing with this issue as well as I am. I am looking for for maybe ideas on how others cope.
