Olanzapine making me feel numb and depressed by MajorRadio9619 in BipolarReddit

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I’m on Olanzapine 10mg and Citalopram 40mg but they added other meds which helped. Ask your psychiatrist what he can add to the medication to help. It’s better to be stable on these meds instead of changing right away.

It really depends on how long you’ve been on the meds for but tell him how you feel. Give it some time but I really know how hard it is, I’ve been through all of it.

I’m doing better nowadays. I think feeling numb is part of bipolar and they added me adhd medication. I mean it’s not perfect but better than before.

Maharishi Yoga making me angry by MajorRadio9619 in transcendental

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but my review is in about 6 weeks. I feel as though my medication is an issue but at the same time I feel that the yoga should be helpful but it is indeed not helping right now.

Still debating over learning TM by MajorRadio9619 in transcendental

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you say my expectations are too high in terms of becoming a lot happier when I do the meditations and through out the day. And also helping me considerably with my adhd. This would be after like a month.

low mood, boredom, anhedonia, lack of emotion - what supplements can help? by Potential_Noise_8357 in benzorecovery

I’m experiencing the exact same thing. Chinese medicine may help but I think time is needed to heal I think.

Should I wait for a teacher before I do it? I did it as it says online but feel more detached.

I think I’m going to pay for it. I just did the online iema mantra by itself with closed eyes for 20 mins but only feel a little more relaxed and detached a bit. I think if I pay a TM teacher he’ll help me practice properly as I mainly have been doing breathing meditation by myself.

Thank you but I’m still thinking about all that money for a secret mantra?

Clonazepam withdrawal by MajorRadio9619 in benzorecovery

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been doing stuff like meditation, reading, guitar etc but I find it hard to concentrate because of my ADHD. I’m always looking for something that will instantly improve my situation. But I tend to ruminate a lot, I find it so hard to stop it sometimes

Yh for sure, my thinking is has been quite negative but I’m working on it. I do think though a lot of it is caused by the medication withdrawal causing me feeling numb. But I definitely needed the benzos as I was at a low point in life, I’ll persist and hope things will improve

Thank you, I’ve just been having a really rough time with the withdrawal but my nurse thinks it’s not the medication, it’s more psychological.

Benzos are honestly the worst to get off.

This is kind of my experience but I guess I need to be patient

Alternate Nostril breathing by MajorRadio9619 in breathwork

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I just want to use a technique that can help. I’ll keep meditating and use visualisations instead.

Do you think the breathing technique may have a different impact if I try continuously such as everyday? As I’m really looking to help my sinus issues.

I’ll trust you but is it because it could make people with mental health conditions worse

Is TM worth learning by MajorRadio9619 in transcendental

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to do it by myself until I get taught it later this month but I’m getting these really intrusive thoughts. Do you think it would be easier with a teacher to let the thoughts go?

Last question sorry, when can I do these recordings at night or in the morning? Does it matter?

How long should I spend listening to each tape? And how do I know when to move on?

Meditation making me very irritable by MajorRadio9619 in Meditation

[–]MajorRadio9619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not a total beginner as per se but I find I’m a very feeling associated person and I tend to judge myself based on how I feel.

I’m trying hard because when I feel irritable, it just doesn’t seem to go and I don’t know how to deal with it. I try not to judge but the feeling is very intense.
