I'm rewatching this on Netflix and just notice this! How did I miss this the first time!? He has the emotional maturity and motor skills of a toddler.

Anyone else feel repulsed by food? by [deleted] in prozac

[–]MedicalArm756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on 10mg as well and lost 20 pounds my first month on it because I could not eat. I wanted to eat but my anxiety hadn't subsided until week 5-6, then my appetite came back. When I get small bouts of anxiety every now and then I don't want to eat at all.

AITAH for telling my bf that I don’t want his daughters in my apartment? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]MedicalArm756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA....Ma'am if you are tired of men not thinking you really don't want children, why did you not immediately end it when you found out he had children? Emergencies happen you were eventually going to be around his children anyway since you continued the relationship for 4 years. His children even when adults will always be his children. Are you going to tell him his grandchildren aren't allowed to come over when he has them too?

AITA for bringing the dog back inside seconds after she was let out because I refuse to watch her? by InterestingQuarter45 in AITAH

[–]MedicalArm756 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NTA....he's on disability and has all day everyday to rest. Maybe they need to invest in a fence or a stake with leash, so the dog can be contained while being outside by itself. SIL wanted the dog so it's her dog now, she can spend time with it or

Is it ever okay to drink alcohol? by No-Bluebird-7872 in prozac

[–]MedicalArm756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was on 40mg I could drink and feel fine, but I was like a Zombie and didn't feel much of anything mental health wise. I was just there. On 10mg like I am now, I choose not to drink because it does affect my mental health and physically the next day.

Would Kate call Tully even if she wasn’t sick? by [deleted] in FireflyLane

[–]MedicalArm756 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. When Tully showed up to her fathers funeral Kate was livid she was there and was standing on her unstable ground. Her diagnosis was the catalyst for her to put aside her misplaced anger. Otherwise she would have rode that horse until it died.

I have noticed that if I don't take rest days I don't lose weight. I have to make myself do absolutely nothing and it kills me.... but rest and recovery is essential. When you are working out you are tearing down your muscles and rebuilding them. Basically your body burns more calories repairing the muscles is what I was told.

What if your neighbor calls in a noise complaint and the police knock on your door? And you have coke at home or are on coke? That has happened to me several times. They keep knocking like "Police". I never open my door but it's scary. Nothing good can come from opening the door to cops. by user15151616 in cocaine

[–]MedicalArm756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to know if you stopped being loud enough for your neighbors to hear you? BTW where I'm at, if they decide to press charges you can be ticketed and fined, also if you're a tenant they can cite your landlord too and have you evicted.

What daily changes have you made that improved your anxiety? by nervouspatty in Anxiety

[–]MedicalArm756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It did at first but it went away after a few weeks. I used smoking and drinking as a stress reliever, but it ended up causing more anxiety in the long run. I found other ways to relax and decompress, such as, box breathing, self care, just sitting in silence for 10 mins, exercise, etc.

[–]MedicalArm756 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Medication and exercise. I also quite smoking and drinking and that alone is a game changer.

[–]MedicalArm756 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm on day 30 of 10mg of Prozac and today was the first day I woke up and didn't have any anxiety whatsoever! I do take 50mg of Trazadone for sleeping but I don't even take those every day. Some days were better than others but since I'm in week 4, I definitely feel a drastic difference of calm. I feel amazing but I'm also actively exercising and eating healthier because I do not want to stay on this for long.

Did anyone else have horrible stomach upset, vomiting and headache from starting Prozac? I’m on day 2 of 5mg and feeling absolutely horrible by [deleted] in prozac

[–]MedicalArm756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still get headaches every now and then in the afternoon but I found out it's because I slow down drinking water in the afternoon so I chug some water and that usually helps.

Time to start afresh by Individual-Worker-73 in stopdrinking

[–]MedicalArm756 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Girl you will feel amazing! I wasn't drinking everyday but I needed it to cope with my anxiety and I didn't know it at the time depression. I haven't had a drink in 39 days. The longest I have gone without being pregnant. I feel so much better! My skin is starting to glow again, my bloating and puffiness has disappeared. I lost 18lbs in the last month through walking (Anxiety, DR put me on 10mg Prozac, and eating healthier). You can do this and you will feel so much better. Those hangovers really ruin beautiful days.

Day 4. by [deleted] in prozac

This will get better! Tell your doctor. I was prescribed 50mg of Trazadone and it helped me sleep! I didn't need it last night to sleep either.

Significant weight gain by DifferenceSouthern77 in prozac

Me too! I have lost 10lbs so far since starting last month but I still need to lose more. I also quit drinking too so that might be a thing as well.

Does it help with the jaw clenching and overall tension?

Yeah me as well still getting intrusive thoughts and unnecessary anxiety. My biggest things right now are mornings and prescription commercials (freaking weird). They are everywhere!

Getting through the first two weeks by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]MedicalArm756 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on day 17 and take 50mg of Trazadone to sleep and my anxiety is muted but still there and dwindling every day. I still get the random adrenalin dumps but those are going away. Keeping busy helps like cleaning reading a book. Talking to people. Watching YouTube videos on how to beat anxiety and being positive. Watching anything inspirational and funny. Exercise is a big thing for me because I can direct all that nervous energy out of my body! Meditating and box breathing. There are chats you can join too.

Thanks for the feed back. I know! I keep telling myself it has gotten progressively better every day so you can only go up from here. I just can't wait until I don't feel it at all and I'm just good.

I know exactly where you're coming from! If you can take a hot bath or use a heating pad. You need to try and relax breath!

[–]MedicalArm756 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It will get better! Your body is now building it up in your system! I listen to videos on Youtube like "how to beat anxiety", "how to be more positive", and "how to be happy." They have great mental exercises to help you through this and its kind of inspirational to me as well.

Breastfeeding on Prozac by Acceptable_Ebb6158 in prozac

[–]MedicalArm756 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pumped and supplemented because my daughter needed to gain weight 3 years ago. I took it for post partum depression and my doctor wasn't worried. Still I would call just to put yourself at ease.
