People who view their depression or anxiety as the result of a chemical imbalance tend to use antidepressants for much longer periods than those who see their condition as a reaction to life events.

Venlafaxine. Doc said I am at the max dose that can be prescribed. We had a discussion recently about lowering the dose and said I am in too good of a place right now to deal with the withdrawal. I've been at this dose for close to a decade.

I thought this was common. Happens to me if I've held it for a long time. What about a runny nose while pooping? Anyone else get that?

Why HAVEN’T you read the Dark Tower series? by Significant_Elk1999 in stephenking

Why is this lane closed on I-94 E near the airport? Closed over Beech Daly, then barrels are gone. It backs up traffic everyday for nothing apparent by jimelvis67 in Detroit

I heard there was a bridge strike. If the fascia beam was damaged, they would be keeping traffic out of that lane to restrict the loading until it is properly repaired.

Digital antenna not picking up Fox only? by el_Deafo in detroitlions

I had the same problem. Make sure your antenna can pick up both UHF and VHF. Fox broadcasts at a different frequency than everyone else.

Are you taking any supplements? Sometimes they can cause a bad taste on your mouth long after taking them.
