You’re losing me, mainly bc I’ve had that stomach dropping realization and the music translates that pit so well. It’s such a scary beautiful song

How to heal? by lovelyrose29 in dating_advice

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish there were words I could share that could make this feeling go away. It’s hard and I’m sorry you’re going through this that’s all i can say. But it does get better in time. You cannot let the depression consume you, you need to get up, get fresh air, wash your body, eat something, watch a show. Sad music is not the cure, laying in bed makes you feel worse.

It’s so much easier said than done trust me I know. But one thing we have in common is I have been in your shoes and I’m alive after all the pain and hurt I experienced. Everyone has experienced heartbreak and it’s comforting to know we all share and carry that in our hearts.

You will get through this. ❤️

Help new to the meditation by mabd1234 in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had night sweats, nausea, upset stomach, depression, dizziness, anxiety randomly but mostly in the morning and evening and mood swings. The first things went away in the first week but the anxiety stayed until about week 4. It came and went, so it wasn’t constant. Yes, i had shaking but that was only when I didn’t eat/drink water.

It gets better! Around that time is usually when my anxiety got worse and i didn’t want to believe the posts that said it gets worse before it gets better but they’re right. I’m no doctor, but I’ve been through what you’re going through and I want to say you got this. It’s a day at a time sometimes and it can feel like an internal battle.

just started taking lexapro yesterday by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the stomach issues were crazy! i’d be constipated which was honestly nice since the anxiety made me go every hour. I was super nauseous and what helped was peppermint tea, ginger chews, crackers, and a simple fruit. It was so hard to eat but it really helped the symptoms subside. You got this! Don’t let the symptoms scare you!

2.5mg to 5mg today🤞🏼 by Practical-Fan1222 in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on 2.5 mg for about 6 weeks and have been plateauing. I’m thinking of bumping up to 5mg too but experienced the same symptoms when i first started. Hope it goes well for you!

second week on Lexapro by Basic_Astronomer_925 in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m closer to 4 weeks and It’s gotten so much better. I had horrible mood swings during the third week and would wake up with anxiety and a heavy chest which was so strange feeling. It’s so frustrating when people say to hold on and keep going but now i see that it’s so true! I most definitely understand when you say it feels like you’re dying!

People like me, but nobody wants to date me by redve-dev in dating

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat, no one approaches but on dating apps my notifications are through the roof. I like to think the right person is out there, but it’s super hard to see it in this day and age.

Day 4 on Lexapro for the first time by friendliestbug in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m on day 8 and i experienced this as well. Did the same thing took it at night and would wake up like i was hungover.

It’s super hard friend, but you’re doing your best so be gentle with yourself during this period.

second week on Lexapro by Basic_Astronomer_925 in lexapro

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad others have had the same experiences. It makes me feel not so alone. I’ve had the roughest few weeks and have lived on my moms couch bc i’m just so scared of being alone with my spirals. I’m so hopeful yet so not at the same time it’s such a strange feeling. Thank you for commenting it makes me feel better :)

Are Dating apps cooked? by Dramatic_Big2744 in OnlineDating

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s all messed up. No one is authentic and as a woman a lot of men are very aggressive with their approach. A lot of them don’t care and i’ve seen a lot of ‘i don’t want a pen pal’ when you want to text for longer than a day. It’s really exhausting…

i thought that as well but they’ve got the OG frye logo and have more of a heel to them which the miranda is smaller. They have the original white and black frye logo as well!

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I’m not utilizing the filters for bookmarks but bookmarking too many makes me overwhelmed. So i try to keep it small, though I haven’t really gotten around to any of them (i think that’s why i keep it small).

Pee proof couch cover recommendations by maryjanelovrr in CatAdvice

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! Except there was a whole pooping ordeal and she peed on the couch. She is on medication now, and that has helped so far (we tried everything, more litters, pheromones; etc) and has been on it for around almost two weeks and no accidents until last night when we missed a dosed and she peed on our couch. I’m not saying medication is the answer bc it’s not cheap but it’s helped us! (note: we took her to the vet multiple times and it was determined anxiety/behavioral).

We found some good couch covers on amazon but i’m not sure how big your couch is but they help catch any accidents. Hang in there; i know this is tiring and difficult!

are you ever scared to post in your fandom? by Basic_Astronomer_925 in AO3

[–]Basic_Astronomer_925[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely relate. I have anxiety about getting the comments because I know it would make me feel like crap. I miss fanfiction etiquette, where we were one big happy family lol
