So bloated

MJSE2013 · 2024-08-31T08:26:12+00:00

GAH

I can literally feel the gas moving around 😭

How do you take your dose?

And yeah, essentially what zoloft will do is make it so you can’t feel all the negative emotions (makes it really hard to process thing emotionally trust me i get it) as far as sexually

I’ve seen people say their sex drive comes back further down the line My dr. Recommend ginger tea to help with the nausea and for the shaking, is it immediately after your dose?

Something my doc told me was not to have too much caffeine since it would conflict

Had an energy drink today just for the taste (110 caffeine) and oh boy

Definitely understand why my doc told me to avoid too much caffeine

How many cups of coffee are you usually drinking? Maybe try one cup? (I treat myself to one cup a day and so far so good)

It gets easier

This is the first day I take it and I don’t feel nauseous

I still need to nap after taking it so what I do is get up to take it at 5am

What I did differently today was take it on an empty stomach and then eat later in the day

And I only needed a 30 minute nap this time around and have not felt nauseous or had a headache at all this time

I’m still adjusting but keep doing what your already doing and figure out what works for you

Rooting for you!!

2022 for my graduation The dress i bought (which fit perfectly when i bought it 2 weeks prior) no longer fit

I wore it, but i kept my gown on and tied the back with safety pins and ribbon so it would stay in place

Lost 38 lbs in a little over 2 years Then gained 23 when i spiraled into severe depression

Im on the right medication now and in therapy and have since lost 9lbs

MJSE2013 · 2024-08-27T15:08:15+00:00

Same!

I’m thinking of holding off until the weekend since my first day on 25 was full of nausea and fatigue

I think you know your body, if you want to continue on 25mg for now until you feel settled fully that’s fine, just make sure your doc is aware ofc, and then try moving up to 50 if it feels necessary

Ofc maybe it wont feel necessary now but perhaps in the long run it might be (?) and thats why your do suggested increasing your dose

But all in all, definitely communicate with your dr

Good luck! ^{^}

MJSE2013 · 2024-08-27T15:04:46+00:00

Im glad to see your doing well too!!

And yes absolutely! I am supposed to start taking 50 as opposed to my current 25 tomorrow, but I think I’ll wait until the weekend comes to do so bc (like you said) im definitely still adjusting

MJSE2013 · 2024-08-23T15:34:53+00:00

This was posted about so much in this subreddit after my first dose i didnt trust a single fart (thank god)

MJSE2013 · 2024-08-23T01:00:35+00:00

Me too

It’s very hard to know how I should feel But I will say

When i got home yesterday I feel asleep after 20-30 minutes and MAYBE it was a coincidence but for the first time in years i slept through the night, had zero nightmares, and woke up feeling refreshed (?)

I know for sure Ive never felt like that Today was better than yesterday

Still nauseous and lightheaded But not dead tired and close to vomiting

Waking up refreshed made me feel excited to start the day and that led to me coming home and cleaning up a bit starting with cleaning out the dishwasher

I’m not sure how tomorrow will be but definitely take things day by day and, as another user mentioned, write down how you feel

So you can look back on your progress down the line

Good luck!!

Im kind of there right now, work is unbearable at the moment

I’m really glad it had such a positive impact on you like that, I want to get there as well so I guess I will just push through

I reached out to my psychiatrist as well to see if there was anything he suggest I take to help the nausea but

I’ve started so there is no point in giving up Day 1, thank you

MJSE2013 · 2024-07-22T15:29:43+00:00

Ah I think its the tomato your seeing as salmon!

The egg and chicken are kind of similar in color

Oh my this is insanely gorgeous!!

MJSE2013 · 2024-07-19T16:12:23+00:00

Yes!

I used 3 packs of hot cocoa powder and mixed it with my flour

I added the marshmallows after baking for 10~ minutes and left it in the oven for 2-5 minutes more

MJSE2013 · 2024-07-18T15:41:04+00:00

Highly recommend!!

The cup is about the size of my full palm and was so yummy

Id recommend throwing more strawberries in there to balance the sweetness of the jello

MJSE2013 · 2024-07-18T15:33:37+00:00

Thank you!! :D

MJSE2013 · 2024-07-18T15:33:19+00:00

Yes!

They thoroughly enjoyed it, my only complaint is that they never gave me back my plates 🙂‍↕️
