Not a fan of the cilantro. I know people eat it like salid and I could never do that.

I hope you are having a good day and slept well. I have chronic insomnia and have had three nights straight where I got some sleep. Here's hoping we all get good sleep even for a couple hours. It breaks the cycle in a way. I hope I don't jinx myself.

It's great that you've been sleeping! :)
I hope you got more last night!

Hi,

I'm hoping to get undepressed somehow.


I see the psychiatrist Monday.


I'm wondering if we should try some meds again.

---basically something that comes in liquid or other baby doses.

Good luck with your sleep.:hug::hug::hug:

Hubby puts bunches of cilantro in his salad.

I have to leave the room until it's out of the way.

Hi
do you want to try aplenzin? I wake up horribly depressed ever morning and then I take it and it really works.. even now with the extra issues. It is related to welbutrin and I think that used to work for you.

Hi Mari,

I would love it if you were "unrepressed" (((HUGS)))

Here is a website that has a table that lists a bunch of meds available in liquid form:

I hope this helps :hug:

Pdoc visit
 

Thank you ladies. :)

I asked Hubby to drive me to the pdoc because I had been awake the
night before & I did not think I should be driving.

I asked pdoc for Ambien (I have NO idea why I said that
unless that was due to not sleeping the night before.)

Pdoc said 'Yes" to the Ambien and gave me the talk about going to bed when I take it. I agreed. (HA!)

Then she started talking about Pristiq.

She said something about an earlier visit when she gave me Pristiq.
I told her sometimes I don't take things she gives me so I would
not know anything about Pristiq or have any experience with it.

She ignored that and moved on to type into her iPad and send my prescriptions to the pharmacy.

It was a short visit.

We drove home.

I'm so glad that you went to the pdoc and your husband drove :hug::hug::hug:

Please let us know how things turn out with the Pristiq (((HUGS)))

At least you will have the Ambient on hand IF you ever decide to try it again...

I was hoping the pdoc would have been more interactive during your appointment. You are asking for help. I was on cymbalta, which is related to pristiq. The side effects were limited, except for me I experienced excessive sweating. This became a problem because I was hot flashing at the time so basically a big sweat ball with a shinny red face 24/7. It did help with depression.

I have taken Ambien in the past. It works, but I had to take a break, as it became less effective over time. I had no "TigerWoods" side effects.

what are tigerwood side effects lol. It didn't work for me.
