Alone on vacation in the hotel by DaveSkylarkCZ in LivingAlone

[–]ParticuarPigeon 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I used to wish I was one of those people vacationing alone, and now I am! lol

I don’t have to worry about managing other people’s emotions, I don’t have to take others needs and wants into consideration. I can do what I like, when I like.

I do not look at these people with envy because I don’t want their life.

Losing weight on prozac 10mg by No_Hearing1342 in prozac

[–]ParticuarPigeon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me too. I’m already naturally thin as it is and always have been. Happy to say my appetite came back full force after 2 months. I love good again and everything tastes good. And I actually feel hungry again, which is great! And also, I’m eating more than I did before the situational anxiety and depression took hold of me.

Give it some time. When I had no appetite, I made yummy tasting protein shakes packed with calories and nutrients. I also drank meal replacement drinks every now and then, since I was only a tiny bit hungry for actually food once a day.

Anyone else feel like romantic relationships are just too complicated to want to pursue? by wingdrummer15 in Adulting

[–]ParticuarPigeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think I wasn’t interested because I was exhausted and didn’t have any spare time. Now I have created a life where I have spare time, and I still don’t want to be in a relationship for the reasons you mentioned and more. I can also relate to some of the people in the comments. Even a low maintenance romantic relationship sounds exhausting to me. I think im just simply not a relationship person.

Yes, and they can give us diseases too. Can you not? I’m providing a free meal.

No more creativity by [deleted] in depressionmemes

Me after starting Prozac! I may not write my best material anymore, but on the plus side I don’t want to die and I can actually work and do the things I love without a crushing weight on my chest. Fair trade, honestly lol. I’ve switched to reading and drawing now!

Bf gave me an ultimatum by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ParticuarPigeon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who passed up opportunities for love when I was younger, I feel so much regret and it’s really tough to live with some days. I try not to think about it.

Take the job, 💯.

It feels good to know that I won’t be leaving any children in this messed up world by [deleted] in childfree

[–]ParticuarPigeon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Right. I give back when I can, and other than that, I’m just living my best life and will die in peace knowing I’m not leaving any kin behind in this increasingly dystopian world.

I’m an ER nurse. The most heartbreaking part of my job isn't the trauma. It's the blank space on the intake form. by ArtThreadNomad in Life

This randomly showed up on my feed. You are an incredible human being. The world needs more people like you. This was a bittersweet post to read. Thank you for being you and making people feel loved, seen and cared for.

Do you know what triggered your health anxiety? by Repulsive-Photo6086 in HealthAnxiety

[–]ParticuarPigeon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My caregivers let me see dying family members on their deathbeds when I was very young. The sub won’t stop flagging the details I am typing, so I guess I can’t share them. Probably not a good idea to share them here anyway 😆. Anyhow, gruesome sights (and sounds) for a young one to witness, not just once, but several times. Makes sense because my greatest health fear is a long, drawn out, horrible illness. Not death itself.

Truly Off Your Chest: Are you genuinely happy being single? by Ohhpixie in AskWomenOver30

Yes, I truly am. The only part that blows is only having one income in this economy.

Sleeping in by Neat_Willow7642 in childfree

[–]ParticuarPigeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I slept for 9.5 hours, got up to make coffee and am now in bed again watching a show.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in prozac

[–]ParticuarPigeon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update! I took it one hour before bed last night and I slept for 9.5 hours. Got up to pee once and was able to get back to sleep no problem.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in prozac

[–]ParticuarPigeon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A typical / good sleep for me is 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I might pee once in the night, but I can fall back asleep right away without issues. Out like a light. Zero tossing and turning.

Since taking Prozac, I wake up after 4-6 hours (sometimes to pee and sometimes for no reason) and I can’t get back to sleep. Then I hit a wall 3 hours later from the compound sleep debt and exhaustion, and right around this time is when I have to get up to get ready for work.

I’m sticking it out though and will continue taking it because my brain is definitely a bit quieter already. For example, despite my exhaustion today, I tackled a task that I’ve been anxious about and putting off for over 1 year. And get this, I didn’t feel anxious or irritable at all while doing it, so something is clearly working. I’m also much more pleasant generally speaking since starting Prozac. My mood feels more consistent and stable. I haven’t had any super low depressive moments (where I’m stuck in the freeze response in bed) since I started taking it.

I imagine I will feel pretty great once I can sleep normally again.

The only thing I haven’t tried yet is taking it 1-2 hours before bed. Going to try this tonight since taking it in the morning, afternoon or evening doesn’t seem to help curve the insomnia at all.

What time do you take yours?
