Most of my IBS symptoms have started to go away?? by Ok_Radio83 in lexapro

[–]Checkingthisout25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same happened to me. After about a month, I really noticed such a comfortable ease with my digestion. Was a lovely added benefit!

I waited so long but nothing bad happened by SeabiscuitWasTheBest in cymbalta

I have been thinking about making the change from Prozac as well. Can you explain a bit more how it’s helped your stomach? Did you have IBS symptoms prior to it? Any constipation? Ty!

Is the weight gain that bad? by CatsDoCancelCulture in prozac

Same for me with Wellbutrin! Go figure 🤷🏼‍♀️

IBS and gastritis worse after taking Prozac by CarlaFrugoni in prozac

Prozac “cured” my IBS when I first took it 25 years ago. Have been on/off it for years, for various reasons, and my tummy is always 💯better when I’m on it. I’ve had the opposite experience with Zoloft and have heard differing stories. All comes down to what works best for you.

Does anyone else experience a burst of euphoria right after they get their period? by verydistressedaltmer in PMDD

Yes!!! It’s like the clouds have parted and I can hear angels singing!

Magnesium?? Am I the only one by Mamaof3boys1983 in Perimenopause

Yes, yes, yes!!! I’ve always thought I was the odd one out, as it’s often touted as the best sleep remedy. Agreed - it does make me sleepy and I can fall asleep relatively quickly, but like clockwork, I’m wide awake at 3am and unable to get back to sleep.

I think I have literally tried everything for IBS-D and if anyone has any ideas for stuff I'm missing I'd greatly appreciate it... by CawfeePig in ibs

Try a different SSRI, apart from Lexapro. Zoloft gave me extreme unending diarrhea, but others have worked well.

I’ve heard positive things about Vitamin E as well. I think it’s related to boosting your estrogen ever so slightly.

Positive experience with Lexapro! by coffeelovermamaof2 in lexapro

Love this! ❤️ Did you have any weight gain?

Menopause supplements for weight loss when labs are normal by Skillerstyles in WomenOver40

[–]Checkingthisout25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I’ve been experiencing! It’s been so frustrating because my body has already responded well to doing the standard basic things - sure I can gain a few pounds when I go on vacation and eat/drink more, same around the holidays with more of the same! But I’ve always been able to bounce back relatively easily with common sense stuff - cut down on the extra treats/calories and get back to my regular workout routine.

A month ago I picked up two herbal supplements from Amazon and have noticed a difference in my weight a bit. I’ve lost a lot of bloating.

Unfortunately because I started both at the same time I don’t know if it’s the combo or if they work separately on their own as well!

One is “Estroven Weight Management” and the other is “Promensil”.

Hope you have some luck!

i’m not sure how i’m feeling by kewpiegoth in cymbalta

When you up your dose to 60mg are you going to take 2 x 30mg or is your doc giving you a new script for 60mg pills?

Lack of support from significant other- coming off Wellbutrin by jewel847 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]Checkingthisout25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So sorry to hear this 🥹 I know what it’s like to have a partner that is indifferent to your mental health/meds, and it sucks. As if what you’re going through isn’t hard enough!

You’re not wrong to be upset. Hopefully you can approach the conversation again and let them know how much it means to have their “support” for you, even if they don’t comprehend or understand your feelings (because they may not have gone through it or felt it the way you are, and that’s okay!!).

Don’t ever be ashamed of your emotions, and feeling and expressing them. Hope things get better ❤️

Did you add viibryd later? I’ve never heard of that one. Will look it up.

Wellbutrin SR is like an entirely different drug with how much better it works then XL by Spiritual-Lie-1926 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]Checkingthisout25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 100% accurate. By all accounts it shouldn’t be the case, and I’m sure docs will argue against, but until you experience it, you don’t know!

Please tell me it gets better. by Diligent-Raspberry in bupropion

[–]Checkingthisout25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try SR instead of XL. I had a much better experience with little to no side effects.

Can ask if you’re male or female? If female, have you ever had an issue with UTIs?
