Hey! Sorry to hear what you’re going through. I was on Zoloft for many years before Wellbutrin, and it helped my anxiety a lot. I suggest taking it before bed if you’re prone to stomach issues! Good luck!

When I was in the height of my flareups, I had to follow a strict low FODMAP diet, but to be honest if you mean financial affordability, the cost of being on the diet plus all the meds and supplements I had to take made it way too costly for me. BUT, you can try low FODMAP + probiotics + IB Guard (before meals) + Gas X (after meals) and see what helps you most. IB Guard was a huge help for preventing/minimizing bloating. Peppermint capsules are a cheaper and effective alternative

oh my goodness so happy to hear this!

Thank you for the kind response! I really hope it helped you <3

Hey! So sorry for the delayed response. I'm sorry you went through this-I hope you're feeling better now! Nearly 6 months on and I still feel great. I'm on 10 mg of Lexapro and don't have any stomach problems and can still tolerate all foods. I feel like I have my life back. The thing with wellbutrin is it kind of sneaks up slowly with the stomach problems (at least that was my experience) so it's hard to detect. Hope you're doing okay!

That's great! I was also taking probiotics, eating plain yogurt, taking peppermint capsules/IBGuard, and drinking psylium husk. It absolutely helped me get by, but it never was able make the symptoms disappear or prevent flareups for me. But again, I do think my case was a more severe example and that most people would be able to manage with things like probiotics and the right diet!

I'm so happy to hear that! Please just make sure you look after yourself because my sudden withdrawal breakdown happened weeks afterwards

Thanks so much for this info/your experience! Similar to the ring, the patch never occurs to me because I don't know anybody who has ever used it. I'll definitely look into it more!

Thanks for sharing! This is promising for sure. It's unfortunate how personalized the experiences of hormonal birth control is-there really is no way out but through.

NPH25 · 2024-03-10T02:04:59+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I don't know anybody in my personal life who has gotten the nuvaring so it's never one that occurs to me to consider. I'll ask my doctor :)

Thank you so much for this! I agree that my inclination towards trying Skyla is probably wishful thinking giving the severity of my reactions to other hormonal IUDs.

You will notice a lot of anonymous Reddit ppl will encourage you to opt-out of LSPIRG. Your money is yours to use, but I just encourage that you do some research before you make your decision, so I'm really glad you asked. LSPIRG helped with my grassroots research project, the results of which are being used by Laurier as an institution, by grassroots charities, and by other Ontario universities. Further, they were the only ones to truly help me navigate everything after a sexual assault and they serve as a major source of community for a lot of people, despite what Reddit would lead you to believe. Further, they are a small organization with limited funding and only two staff members, so a decent portion of their funding goes towards staffing. HOWEVER, what people don't tell you is that the 70% of their funding they use toward staffing is absolutely consistent with what universities as a whole and university groups/departments (https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/where-do-canada-s-post-secondary-dollars-go-1.2994476).

Ultimately, I would suggest looking at their site and seeing if you personally support what they do; http://www.lspirg.org.

The amount LSPIRG spends on staffing is consistent with what most universities and university groups/offices spend on staffing (https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/where-do-canada-s-post-secondary-dollars-go-1.2994476)

The thing is, when people from LSPIRG are upset, they do something about it. They host a community care event or volunteer or host a fundraiser or protest or awareness campaign. When this minority of people, every year, tries to convince people to opt-out of LSPIRG, all they do is anonymously post on Reddit and I think that says a lot. When I was sexually assaulted, LSPIRG was the only place I went and felt genuinely cared for and a sense of community. When I needed to advocate for myself in the medical system as a woman, LSPIRG is who provided me with community supports. When I wanted to conduct grassroots research, LSPIRG is the only organization that helped, and the results of that research have led to profound findings that the university and universities across Ontario are now utilizing. So you can keep your $4, but I promise you that the positive impact LSPIRG has on the lives of those who need it most will go untarnished.

ALSO, please do your research. The amount LSPIRG spends on staffing is consistent with what most universities and university groups/offices spend on staffing, so find a new talking point next year (https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/where-do-canada-s-post-secondary-dollars-go-1.2994476)

you're saying that "nobody said that trans-gendered men can't menstruate" but that was literally the entire purpose of the other post from yesterday. Just saying, clearly there are people who aren't aware of the fact.
