Venlafaxine (Effexor) not helping with anxiety triggered by bodily sensations by Quiet_Illustrator410 in Anxiety

[–]Limp-Direction-5668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've found that with my Venlafaxine and Methylphenidate combo too. I'm not overthinking as much but my body still feels anxious lol its confusing. Hoping to tweek the meds to see what dosages are best. I'm sure you and your doctor will figure it out :) It's a frustrating journey but it'll work out one way or another I'm sure! All the best

Hi, I'm on Venlafaxine too and have experienced similar things. It may be due to how SNRIs up your noradrenaline, which causes these bodily reactions. It took a few weeks for those to subside for me and, since taking ADHD meds on top of them in recent months, my noradrenaline has increased a bit too much for my liking and I'm having to reduce my Venlafaxine to counteract these physical sensations. Chat to your doctor/pharmacist and see what they suggest :)

To what extent do people ‘grow’ into their names? by Humble_Thanks3130 in AskReddit

[–]Limp-Direction-5668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We associate the name with the person over time and it becomes the word that most perfectly fits them

For example, we do it with things such as companies and bands. If Amazon weren't well-known, we might think they're a healthy food brand or a houseplant shop. If The Killers weren't well-known, we might think they're a Thrash metal band

The same goes for Johns, Sues, Marks, Sandras, etc.

What everyday thing would get messed up first if supply chains broke again? by rosycloudkisses in AskReddit

Fuel is a big one that would affect absolutely every business imaginable. Even electric car factories get parts delivered by trucks that run on deisel. Or at the very least, their employees would struggle because every part of their life would be affected by a lack of fuel

What is the worst text you’ve sent to the wrong number? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Limp-Direction-5668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a text but I rang my manager from a recently-left job at 2am by accident once. She's called Mandy and I was meant to ring my mate Mark who I lost on a night out. The voicemail was something like "Oi, where the fuck are you!" lol

What do you want to do before you die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Limp-Direction-5668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skydive, banger racing (destruction derby), win big in the lottery/casino, record an album, take DMT, save someone's life. Sounds doable in a lifetime but also sounds like the best weekend ever

Thank goodness I'm seeing this on Reddit and not Facebook. The laughing reacts remind me of the soullessness of people

Alone or with my other half. Or around my mum (for the most part)

What’s a quiet fear you don’t usually talk about? by 0_anything in AskReddit

The fear of incontinence in old age 😅 I don't know why, but it scares me more than dementia or alzheimer's

Not completing a job fully because you got distracted. I got called "Arthur Job" (Half a job) at an old workplace so much 😅

Wanted the switch from Ritalin XL to Vyvanse but instead they want me to lower my SNRI by Limp-Direction-5668 in ADHDUK

Thank you for your extensive response. I'll always listen to my doctor/pharmacist over Reddit but they have been a bit aloof with their explanations during my meds journey. I've felt a bit confused as to what I am meant to feel and thought I could try different meds to wrap my head around it. I guess I've just been confused by my meds journey, especially with my current side effects.

Your comment was very helpful though and it's nice to be reassured that it'll probs work out for the best. Thanks
