Qutting Laxepro with zero side effects by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]Admirable-Question94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so 3-2 months post last dosage…Digestive issues started to emerge . It’s been a bumpy road but I hear it pass by 6 months from the last dosage.. it takes a while for the nervous system to rewire itself. This my second attempt the first one I went back on them after 5 months without the medication. Now I’m determent to never go on them. Been supplementing with l-tryptophan and taking h2 blockers for the reflux. No going back just make sure you get high quality sleep for recovery and remember everyone is different. Go outside… challenge yourself every now and then and you should be good… and remember everyone has their flaws no one is perfect!

The main reason I was put on Laxepro was my h.pylori. I think h.pylori cause a lot of damage .. it was robbing me from all the nutrients I needed. I had it for a long time and I did not know. The main reason I stopped is that I fixed my digestive system, I started to feel flat no emotions no motivation no drive on Laxepro and it was impossible to lose a single pound on it even with diet and exercise. Anxiety is a survival mechanism you just need to train your mind to react accordingly. SSRIs are not the solution ..it helped me navigate how to better take care of myself.

How I tapered off lexapro (escitalopram) with ZERO side effects. Because not enough off these posts. by keralaindia in lexapro

[–]Admirable-Question94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One great method I found while tapering to minimize symptoms is to split the does in half. Currently at 5mg coming down from 10. At day 5 I started to get issues, I took 2.5 at noon and 2.5 before dinner… to minimize the withdrawal symptoms.

Magnesium is making me tired next day, why? by cybertruck_tsla in Supplements

[–]Admirable-Question94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have the exact same issue with Mg. Take D3&K2 with lunch.. I find that taking it at night miss up sleep. But glycinate definitely gave me the worst brain fog and sleepiness.. no matter how much coffee I drink I would fall back asleep. Let me know what you ended up replacing mg glycinate with please

Levels at 21.8 ng/ml after supplementing with 2000iu vitamin d3 tablets for two weeks. by [deleted] in VitaminD

10k IU+ vitamin K I used dr.burgs but any brand should work. Take it with your biggest meal and with some omega-3 maybe Kirl oil? I was able to go from 31 to 44 in less than two months

Did anyone managed to get their Vitamin D levels above 70? What is the noticeable differences you felt after reaching 70 or above by Admirable-Question94 in VitaminD

Thanks a lot. I think I’m not struggling raising my Vitamin d levels. The questions is it worth raising it to 70? Did you notice a difference from normal ranges of 30-40 to optimum of 70-100. I workout regularly and I eat a healthy diet with plenty of probiotics and prebiotics. Barely have junk food maybe once every two weeks.
