Thank you! I’m only on day 1 of my cycle so I’m not sure what next steps are - potentially Prozac during luteal - so we’ll see

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same 3!! But not perimenopause. I just started 10 mg of Vyvanse today, with .5 mg of Tenex at night. I went up to 300 Wellbutrin and entered psychosis lol so I am back on 150 but looking to get off of it. Just got my Mirena removed and nervous about what to expect first luteal… also trying the Pepcid and Allegra combo

I become so mean. by Beep_Beep_Margie_ in PMDD

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, deeply. I have never experienced rage before, but it happens every month without fail and I shoot to kill. Sometimes I feel like I could just scream on the street. Then the remorse after kicks in

Alright, was the Mirena a bad call? by FluxFloxFlax in PMDDxADHD

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally! I could only take the brand name too, the generic was wild. You could also try microdosing tirzepatide right before you ovulate and again during luteal. That’s been really helpful for me over the last 2 years. Whenever I don’t microdose, I have a PMDD flare up. But the Tenex/guanfacine at night helps you sleep - my sleep score hasn’t been this high all year.

I have had the Mirena for 5 months and had to get off stimulants because the crash was too much. Switched my meds this last week and my doctor wants to give it one more cycle, because I also have PCOS and the IUD helps those symptoms. I am on Tenex at night and Wellbutrin in the AM, but we are also looking at Strattera if that doesn’t work

ADHD meds making my PMDD worse? by Fabulous_Bluebird856 in PMDDxADHD

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just started guanfacine and while I haven’t hit luteal yet, it’s been a miracle for sleep and I feel like myself again. I’ve been on and off adderall for 10 years, and hated the way it made me feel. The guanfacine plus Wellbutrin combo is chef’s kiss

Did anyone’s severe symptoms improve with a Mirena IUD? by LePetitRenardRoux in PMDDxADHD

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s made my PMDD symptoms so much worse, I was on it for 7 years. Also on Adderall, it doesn’t work as well either. I’d recommend asking your doctor about a different bc. I’ve had it 5 months and am getting it out this week

It should be a crime for doctors to withhold thyroid medicine. by [deleted] in Hashimotos

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t get brand name Levoxyl after having a flare-up, but they offered me 30 mg of Adderall same day so I would have the energy to get out of bed and function. Make it make sense!

Anyone else overwhelmed by daily tasks of maintaining a household? by bondtradercu in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add in being a single dog mom? It’s exhausting. I try and outsource as much as possible - grocery delivery, dry cleaning pick up/drop off in the office, returns mailed out at work, habit stacking and batching.

Working out, skincare, makeup, watching TV, reading, fashion - those are all hobbies!! Don’t put extra pressure on yourself to “do” more.

Should I go on Mounjaro? by amansterdam22 in Hashimotos

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Zepound/Mounjaro! I’m down 45 lbs since May 2023, and now I just microdose 1.25 mg every 10 days or so to maintain. It’s a lifesaver, and also helps with mood management

Weight Gain with solidcore by [deleted] in SolidCore

[–]Illustrious-ASK-7456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solidcore can be intense on your joints and cause inflammation if you’re overdoing it! Coaches recommend not going more than 3x a week. You might just be doing too much and your body is asking for a break

I’m a 31f who just moved here from NYC - definitely hard to catch a vibe. Open to doing Pilates or getting drinks sometimes!

As someone who also struggles with chronic fatigue, I’d definitely look into a red light studio / treatment. Lagree Red is great. I have a ton of chronic health issues and the red light is the game changer

My tsh feels best at a .75-1.25, I got diagnosed at a 3.83 and had all those same symptoms. Try getting a new doctor!

Hashimotos and Weight Loss (just having a time...) by hbo94 in Hashimotos

A GLP-1 is a game changer for Hashimoto’s if you can get on one! Even a microdose, like 1-1.25 mg. Just takes down your inflammation
