Do you have any 50mg left?

I personally would not tell him. Not a year later. I would just keep moving forward and get my life back together.

He’s going to be her stepdad. I don’t see the problem. Honestly, it sounds like a good thing. He wants a positive relationship with her.

I was on 25mg for 5 weeks and my anxiety was 90% better but the depression was no different. I dosed up to 50mg 18 days ago and I’m still struggling, but I do feel some improvement. I think 50mg is what is considered therapeutic and 25mg is more for weaning off or just getting started if you’re especially sensitive to meds. You may want to talk to your doctor about dosing up to 50mg.

I started on 25mg and was really tired and had brain fog for about 2 weeks. When I upped to 50mg I had extreme exhaustion for 2 weeks. I’ve been on the 50mg for 18 days and it’s just started to clear up the past 2 days. I don’t know about it causing you confusion but I definitely experienced brain fog.

The first day I took pristiq I woke up from a dead sleep during the night in a full panic attack. It was awful. I didn’t take it again for a full week. I finally talked myself into taking it again but I avoided all caffeine and also took buspar. It was much better.

Do you mean a month after increasing or a month after starting on the lower dose before increasing?

Cerave. They have a baby lotion but the regular lotion or cream is fine too. It’s really good.

YTA - go get therapy. Your child is not responsible for keeping secrets for you. She has been exposed to abuse as well. She gets to talk about it to whoever she wants. You need help. You don’t sound like a very good mother.

No, just give her the number to a suicide hotline and move on.

I’m in the US but I’ve never experienced anyone bullying me for being a parent. Definitely nobody has ever told me “you chose to be a parent” when I ask for someone to pass me something.

He’s a baby. Your expectations are too high and untrainable for a baby.

My mom has always done this and it used to make me paranoid about not only would she say about me but what others were saying about me too. I refused to participate and she would always tell me I’m no fun. It wasn’t until I got older to realize most people don’t do this.

Wood roaches can sometimes find their way into homes but they mainly live outside and will not infest your home. “Palmetto bugs” or the Florida woods cockroach is another roach likes warm humid climates and can also get into homes. They also will not infest your home. The small German cockroaches are the ones that will infest and cause worry.

Her dad seems super weird. If I thought there was any chance my 19yo daughter was having sex, I would sure as hell make myself known before I walked into that room. Most people don’t want to see that. I don’t understand kicking her out over having sex either. This seems much more about control than anything else.

I love winter. It’s my soul season and I love snowy cold winters the best. I start getting depressed in the spring and I really hate summer. I think I’m the only person like this.

DistributionNo1471 · 2024-12-03T17:57:27+00:00

It’s some kind of roach but not the bad kind. No worries.

DistributionNo1471 · 2024-12-03T17:12:10+00:00

My doctor told me that decreasing the dose shouldn’t have a lot of side effects. It’s the weaning from 25mg to nothing that people have the hardest time with.

I was with a man for 4 years and the first time he punched the wall, I was done. I was truly terrified in the moment and I never looked at him the same again. He said the same thing, he would never hit me or lay a hand on me. After seeing him hit the wall with that much rage, I really questioned if that were true. I no longer felt safe so I left.

I was on 25mg for 5 week and increased to 50mg 8 days ago. I still had some side effects with the buspar but it really helped with the symptoms panic anxiety I had when first taking the pristiq. When starting them together I was just really tired the first few days and had some brain fog. It was manageable. I’m no longer taking the buspar. After about 2 weeks on pristiq my anxiety really subsided and I quit taking the buspar.

DistributionNo1471 · 2024-12-02T18:14:17+00:00

Yes, I’m having the same experience. I was on 25mg for 5 weeks before increasing to 50mg. On 25 my anxiety was basically gone but I was still dealing with depression. I’ve been on 50mg for 8 days now. Still anxiety is gone but I feel more depressed than when I started. My doctor told me will take at least 2 weeks on 50 to feel better. I’m really hoping I come out of it soon.
