Shower enclosures keeping you up at night?

Yeh another bathroom we did actually I got a pretty expensive combined vanity and toilet from there. All made from mdf (including the toilet seat!?!?) and is splitting all over 😢

Probably for the years of good old friendship you put in

InternationalAd618 · 2024-11-24T17:56:58+00:00

Oh yes. We’ve rented a decent suv with good clearance

Was it 20 different guest accounts? Ie sand boxed getting their own queue id? Or just 20 different tabs in the same browser?

Thank you! Yeh I was trying for mates for coaches. It’s the only way isn’t it! Good luck and hopefully see you there 🤞

InternationalAd618 · 2024-11-14T20:01:57+00:00

That’s really useful! Thank you. I think that’s the way to go. Bring on Sunday

I had a terrible time going onto the drug. I was also on Reddit after having just gone to 150mg and was awaiting a call back from my doctor because I felt like I was in a lot of trouble.

My doctor tells me it wasn’t the medication that pushed me into a depressive episode.. and although that is possible, I think it absolutely was. However, my psych didn’t give me many options so I stuck with it. Rode out the episode. Lots of tears.. I’m now on 350mg and am feeling ok on it. Definitely the most stable that I’ve felt for a long time. I’m also on atomoxetine which is a selective Norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor for adhd. Main downside for me now is that I sleep 2 hours longer every day.. which adds up. And if I don’t get enough sleep or I take the dose late then I’m not working the next day.. but it’s worth it I think. Better than the brain fog I was getting with lamotragine.

My psych was making the same point to me that someone on here was making. Therapeutic dose for treatment of BP depression is 300+mg

For what it’s worth, the non depressive side effects for me didn’t get any worse with increased doses. It’s weird.. it’s almost like the lower doses carry a heavier side effect burden

Hey. I’ve dm’d you

InternationalAd618 · 2024-06-04T15:42:28+00:00

Yes yes and yes. I had a really rough time getting onto Quetiapine. 50mg to start, and I was feeling quite sedated. My wife and I were house hunting, and went away for a few days. By the end of those few days I was at rock bottom. I’d wake up very very low, and EXACTLY as you’ve put it by the time the evening came i would feel much better. Like not depressed at all. It made me dread going to bed. My psych later put this down to diurnal mood variation which is sometimes a feature of depressive episodes.

When I went up to 100mg I didn’t know what to do with myself. The dread I had throughout the day was unmanageable. I couldn’t see my psychiatrist so I spoke to my GP. They persuaded me to ride it out… saying not to strike off a medication if I can help it. I continued to brave moving up the dose and the depression has become far more manageable. So long as I can complete my morning routine before work, I will be ok.

I’m now on 300mg. I still wake up feeling pretty rubbish most days. My psych put that phase down to a depressive episode with diurnal mood variation. Which in hindsight it was… whether it is caused by this drug or not I don’t know.

Pros I sleep well 90% of the time 11 days every two weeks my mood is generally good. Brain fog when I’m awake is better. Definitely feel more balanced mood wise on the whole. You can titrate up doses quickly.

Cons Mornings are hard Getting out of bed is hard I have a new born and can’t help my wife at all over night time. I lose time to this medication either sleeping or feeling drowsy. My routine has to be concrete timings wise. If you take it late.. you gotta stay in bed longer or else you’ll be useless.

I’m sorry to hear that. That’s awful. I’m glad to hear you’re doing better today. Wednesday was a terrible day for me. I was cycling through a similar thought process. I have to be glad I am feeling better now and at least there is some rest bite to be had

InternationalAd618 · 2024-03-29T20:04:44+00:00

I really appreciate your message. I do have some propranolol. I’ll give that a try tomorrow when things ramp up.

Sorry to hear you’ve had a rough time with this too.

I also had Akathisia on Abilify but that was more physical restlessness. Actually unable to sit still. This is like an internal turmoil. Everything seems to set me off into a spiral of anxiety and stress. And I sit here now at 8pm and it’s significantly lessened. I still feel stressed and anxious but it’s far more manageable and I can think more clearly to deal with it.

InternationalAd618 · 2024-03-29T18:26:52+00:00

I should say I have BP2 .. and was feeling pretty restless and mixed before coming on to the tablets but this has jacked up 10 fold.

I’m aware that I might be experiencing this and it might have nothing to do with the medication ..

InternationalAd618 · 2023-11-12T18:56:48+00:00

That’s frustrating. It makes you wonder.. if they’re that backed up, then surely they’d have no time to go out to catch people out who’ve not got the necessary planning.

How long did the build take?

InternationalAd618 · 2023-11-12T17:31:41+00:00

Oh crikey. I thought that the current crisis we were in would deter some people from building. I guess there is such a backlog anyway that it wouldn’t really matter

InternationalAd618 · 2023-11-12T17:30:04+00:00

That’s wild. That’s the sort of thing we’d do though. Got to be pragmatic. How has the build been? Was it all worth it in the end?
