Pdoc finally agreed to augment Eff-XR.
But, we chose nortriptyline, and it hasn't been good. It has worsened my depression, caused blurred vision, and it causes a rigidity which aggravates chronic c-spine pain.
This side effect could be a good way to exclude some meds, ya' think anyone?
What I'm looking for in this augmentor is 'a mood' and 'not increased pain'.
Ideas? Suggestions? Dark horses?
Why have I NOT found an answer in thirty years?
It's other peoples' fault, but I let some of them; one too strong.
Does any1 think a stop-stick for me is presenting myself a bit more grandiose than am? Has any1 ever picked up on this, 'cuz I really can't see myself at all at this point?!
The agoraphobia is full speed, panic, cry, and undeliberately/deliberately sabotage appts so won't have to leave the house!
Need some1 'to care' 'cuz Sun n Aries = niavete, infant; but bite if threaten freedom 'cuz moon in Leo = leader, honest; & here's where it really gets confusing. Venus is in Libra! The opposite sex is attracted to you.
So, to sum me up, 4 fun or not, astrologically,
I'm an innocent, dreamer, believer, honest to a fault, charmer magnet, w/o the ability to recognize a charmer due to my naivete!Anyway, I think the universe can handle a little blame.
(I'm getting tired. I go soon.)
Is it my fault for letting the charmers in if I'm incapable of knowing they are charmers? Idk. I'm sorry.
I think it's my fault if I'm not authentic, and you all know, you know I stretch it w/ the grandiosity a bit don't you? Tks for not yellin' at me for it.
I'm not 'all that' if I act a bit grandiose now and then, and do you think I try ti come off as a little more knowledgeable than I am sometimes? Ya' got me there too. Have you guys known this all along and just not wanted to hurt my feelings?
Wow; good self discovery. (Am I me yet?)
Anyway, what else was suggested?
Don't think lamictal as was going through medications file and noted it as B A D in red ink.
Do a lot of psych meds cause muscle rigidity because it really aggravates C2-3, 3-4, 4-5, and 5-6, where I have extrusions, and the pain shoots up like firework headaches.
A different tricyclic ya' think?
Don't like idea of Seroquel but some suggest.
I can't remember anything anymore, so if u already told me, appreciate u tell me again.
I'm getting close to giving anything but lithium or MAOIs a try.
Tried Nardil but dc'd as live alone and couldn't help self.
And then there's hype about Abilify.(?)
Please suggestions. DX: PTSD, Anxiety, Atypical
like you guys a lot ya know, 5f
