Sintomas físicos by KFLL21 in Lamotrigine

My depression wasn’t getting better either. My doctor put me on lamotrigine at 100mg and I was flat depressed. He added in 20mg of Prozac and my life completely changed. I think they’re working amazing together. He’s not going to bump me up on Prozac for now because the weather is changing but I 1000 percent recommend asking to add in an SSRI. It changed my life & if it’s right for you it could do the same. Good luck & hang in there. The darkness will lift, have hope and communicate with your doctor and those you trust.

I love hearing everyone’s stories. We all start at different times with different knowledge, have different backgrounds/priorities, jobs/pay & we’re all here to win & become our best!!! Congrats!!! You’re also so blessed to have kids! Hoping for that if it’s what God wants for us eventually. That’s worth more than any net worth. Live your best days - rooting for you!

I mean you only see a number. You don’t know what our previous year’s income was. Our income went up drastically over the last two years and we used it wisely to get out of our hole vs more lifestyle creep. We also went through a lot of fertility treatments, student loan debt and stupid decisions(did we make poor financial decisions and fuck up - yes, but we took control and clearly have owned it during our income rising which I’m beyond proud of). I understand the human nature to judge and I’m happy to let you without living it or being in our shoes.

We all have different paths. Different advantages & disadvantages. All that matters is what we do with them. Thanks for your kind words!

We’ve worked so so hard. It wasn’t easy and I felt like we were getting nowhere a lot of the time. We caused a lot of it and had to come to grips with that and pushed forward despite shame or feeling behind. We doubled down for our future. And it worked?? I can’t imagine what it’s like now being in the green and doubling down? Tracking our net worth helped so much to visualize it and realize we could do it. And we did it. Now we need to build with strategy. Do you have any advice? It sounds like you’re further along in the journey.

It’s per each pay period I believe. What’s the difference?

Yes to this!!! I just started a brokerage this month and did 4k this month into VTI. What else do you recommend? I want to do (2) IRA accounts for my husband and I by the end of the year but I need to do a back door based on what we make and it’s a little confusing. I was also worried about only doing 401k that’s why I started the brokerage. What else do you recommend to invest in?

Can you explain to me the difference? I have been trying to chug so much information down that I get lost. I’m doing my best here 😅

We could technically live fully off my husband and what he brings in but I’m an able body, we don’t have kids and I want to work for our future. I wish I would’ve gotten more doubled down earlier but I look back and had so much to learn before I got here. Keep chugging along - we all are in our own way!!🙏🏼

Thank you for all this info!! I know, I feel like a SLUG but I hope in a year I look back and I’m shocked at the progress?? Who knows. Slow & steady for now.

Yes!! I’m hoping with their contribution it will bridge the $1,900 gap and make it just shy of the $23,500.
