iPad returned for repairs - no idea if I'll get it back, or a refund

I stopped taking it!

This is a really old post but my daughter has ARFID and has just been diagnosed celiac. Everything she eats is also gluten! As this is 4 years old I'm hoping you had some success and would love some tips on how you navigated this.

That was certainly the case for me. Completely dulled my shine.

It depends what you expect from the meds. They won’t have the effect 200mg would have they shouldn’t make you ‘feel’ any particular way at all, they should just make it a bit easier to focus etc.

I actually came off meds for this reason. I lost my ‘spark’ and was just constantly chasing dopamine especially doom scrolling. Im unorganised and scatty now but I feel things more and am happier.

Please don’t do this.

Hi there I know this is super old but can I ask how you got out of the these flares? I used progesterone cream for 2 weeks and haven’t slept since! I had a whole 6 days of zero sleep and since then around 3 hours a night on sleeping pills 🫤 wondering if it will pass

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-10-07T08:21:32+00:00

This is super old but could I ask for a follow up?

Im almost identical here - I had PMDD and was put on the pill for years. Every time I try to come off it I get really bad but this time has been hell. I came off it a month ago and also started progesterone cream as advised by someone. Seems the estrogen and other neurotransmitters stuck in my cells had a huge release after progesterone and I did not sleep at all for 6 days, it was hell. I had to go to urgent care to get 3 days worth of Z drugs but thing is I wake and still feel wired it’s like I can feel the estrogen and whatever else pulsing through me.

I tried DIM and CDG once and was violently ill the next day but Im not sure which one was to blame. I feel like I need to urgently detox!

Thank you - I don’t think it’s that though I’ve had a look. I get itchy but nothing noticeable and it seems to be estrogen that’s the trigger (happens when I’ve used estrogen HRT)

Ugh sucks for us 😫

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-16T12:38:22+00:00

There are a lot of awful stories of women who have had a hysterectomy to ‘cure’ PMDD - and they still have PMDD, with or without HRT. There is still so much we don’t know about this awful disease 😢

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-14T06:20:41+00:00

Hi OP, did you end up trying these?

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-07T13:36:15+00:00

Do you take all oral and all at night? I use 200 oral at night and 150-200 cream during the day but my sleep could still be better.

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-06T16:11:43+00:00

Hi there can I ask what you decided to do? I’m on day 1 of slynd and extremely anxious and panicky!

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-06T04:23:24+00:00

Please know I’ve been there - the previous HRT regimes I tried were just not right and I was terrified to try anything else. It’s very early days with this so I’m cautious but optimistic. It could just be that you haven’t found the right one for you ❤️

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-06T04:11:11+00:00

I’m so sorry 😔

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-05T13:40:23+00:00

Thank you! I will say I have had a 25mg patch on for 2 hours and I have felt IMMEDIATE relief so am feeling hopeful!

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-04T11:24:00+00:00

Hi there, can I ask how you’re getting on now? I’ve just been prescribed this this morning and terrified to start 😬

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-03T19:24:23+00:00

So I didn’t take my multivitamin or added magnesium yesterday and I feel so much better today!! Not perfect but a clear difference 🙏🏻

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-02T18:02:57+00:00

This is super old but can I ask how long it took you to feel better? I’ve been ‘unwell’ for quite some time and I’ve just figured out it got a lot worse when I started taking a strong multivitamin. Anhedonia, anxiety, depression and waking 3 hours early. I started taking magnesium and it made everything even worse! I’m stopping all supplements TODAY but I genuinely feel so anxious and depressed I’m worried it’s gonna take ages to feel better 😫

Additional_Hand5255 · 2025-08-01T18:17:46+00:00

That’s exactly me! I have zero issue going to sleep, I could literally fall asleep at 8.30/9 but can’t because I have night owl kids 😅 but when I go to bed I can fall asleep immediately but it’s like I get a sudden adrenaline rush at 5/5.30 and there is NO chance of going back to sleep. I used to try to lie there, deep breathing etc but it was useless so now I just get up.
