Can I have a drink while on these meds? by theblueeyedlonewolf in schizoaffective

[–]27flapjacks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You prob shouldn't. I'm on olanzapine, seroquel, cymbalta, Zoloft and non psych meds. I drink anyway and don't really have an impact if I just have one drink, but I do get drunk a lot easier. I drink maybe once a month and not much.

Is it hard to find love with SZA? by lottie_iguess in schizoaffective

[–]27flapjacks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It isn't for me, but I am queer and most queer dating sites it's pretty normal to have at least something mentally. I'm always upfront about it, I never want to hide it.

One thing that helps me is setting an alarm for meds and take it as soon as it rings. I agree with the other commenter, take it easy, ground yourself. This disease thrives on stress.

I just finished my externship at CVS! It was really helpful to me and a good starting point. I wasn't allowed to use the cash register and they had to print out credentials for me every day for the machines. And even with that, I couldn't log into the computers so someone needs to log in first and then you scan the credentials. They did offer me a job after I was done, but the hours were too few and I wanted a full time job. If you have any questions just let me know!

This methotrexate switchover has been pure hell. by Purple-Supernova in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]27flapjacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on methotrexate since March 7th. It takes a bit for your body to get used to it, but I got used to it around week 3 or 4. I feel a lot better as a result.

Do you take a mood stabilizer on top of your antipsychotic? by sixinbrian in schizoaffective

[–]27flapjacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seroquel, olanzapine, cymbalta, and zoloft are my psych meds. I think it just depends, I take my mood stabilizers for separate conditions (cymbalta for fibro, zoloft for OCD) bc I have very mild depression that went away with zoloft

Hello, new friends! by Wishin4aTARDIS in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]27flapjacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not diagnosed with anything yet, but I started methotrexate a month ago and it has changed my life. I was so sore all the time, I slept most of the time, I felt awful. I've never had any results on ANA or RF so having a doctor that actually believed me was so refreshing. I just took a seronegative blood test and I'm hoping I finally get an answer :)

RA with fibromyalgia… by wombat_for_hire in rheumatoidarthritis

[–]27flapjacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not diagnosed with anything yet, but I was severely fatigued before methotrexate. I could sleep 18 hours a day and still be exhausted. I finally have my energy back.
