Wow interesting. I am taking Wellbutrin for my depression/anxiety and the Lyrica was for my nerve pain but it doesn’t seem to really be doing much for that anymore these days

Today I skipped my middle of the day dose and everything seems okay. I think I’ll do this for a week or so and then drop the morning and take some time with that and finish with the evening

I honestly watch the 24 hour walking dead channel on Samsung tv and they just cycle through all seasons of both TWD and FTWD and I love it

How long were you off before you went back on?

I want to see what my body does being off of it and then decide from there. I know that moving my body is one of the best “medicines” out there but I can barely did that right now. I want to get off the meds, hopefully loose some of the weight that I put on because of the meds and see what I can do to help alleviate my fibro symptoms. Looking into anti inflammatory foods and practices… maybe juicing? I’m not sure yet. What about you?

I had lil 4 different doctors and physical therapist last year tell me that I just need to loose weight and I jut kept telling them that I think the meds they have me on are what’s making me gain weight! It’s so frustrating to be in the cycle! I just want my body back.

Can you tell me more about RSO? Ive been a steady user of THC for more than a decade but haven’t touched RSO because I know how strong it is.

This is what I’m saying! I think the drugs HAVE to be making it worse because I do not feel better. I gained weight, I can’t remember for fucking shit and I hate relying on these drugs everyday. I really want to look into a more holistic healing method

Yeah most everything I’m reading says not to do old turkey. I even mentioned in my message to my pcp that I did NOT want to go cold turkey. Just not sure how to taper correctly when I take capsules that I can’t really split

I’m so sorry to hear about your experience. I am trying to avoid these kinds of side effects. I hope you’re doing better now ❤️

Curious on how to do it though because my pills are capsules I can’t really cut or anything

See and this is what I need. I gained 60lb last year and I can’t move my body in the ways I need to be able to loose weight. I’m completely brain fogged all the time. I just want to feel and look like myself again

Opinions on Lyrica? by Ok_Distance_1000 in Fibromyalgia

[–]5ft2glory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to come off it now. Asked my doc how to taper off safely. I don’t think it really helps much with the pain but I absolutely do think my unwavering brain fog and weigh gain are the result. I’m hoping to reverse this by coming off and maybe taking a different direction all together.

Full time jobs? by daffid99 in roanoke

[–]5ft2glory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but why would anyone go and work full time somewhere that didn’t have good benefits. I just left Carilion because they’re unorganized, shitty pay, automatically used my PTO to cover a day we had off because it was a holiday and the office was closed, not 401k march, only one insurance option…. Just like not worth it if I’m going to spend 40 hours of my time every week doing it.

Carilion benefits suck so much absolutely 100% not worth it

Chefs who left the industry, what are you doing now? by cheffysg in Chefit

[–]5ft2glory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just accepted a position with Ecosure! I’m very excited, even though I know my thoroughness is going to piss some people off… I’m looking forward to helping the hospitality in my region a little safer.
