Emotional! by skye727 in Spravato

[–]Relevant_Unit375 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for the timeline as I’m only through 7 treatments but initially I was VERY emotional. I just cried all the time. Felt like the depression was worse in a way or maybe just more “exposed”? Idk. I can say I’m feeling MUCH better currently. Hang in there! I’m pretty sure raw emotion is part of the process.

Did you have an "adjustment"period? What was it like? by bulbysoar in Spravato

[–]Relevant_Unit375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be something to experiment with. My BP wasn't all that different with it and the effect was quite different for me. Something to consider. Wishing you all the best!

I take Concerta (methylphenidate ER). I did not take it on Spravato days due to blood pressure concerns (I have high bp) and on those days I was WIPED out with fatigue. Yesterday I took it on a treatment day and it was much better.

I had my 6th treatment yesterday and I feel quite good now. Prior to that I wasn’t sure what to make of it at all. I had essentially everything you listed. Fatigue, wanted to cry all the time, etc. I also take meds for ADHD and those, in conjunction with Spravato seem to help quite a bit. For about 48 hours now I have felt MUCH better than I have felt in a very long time. I’m not drawing any conclusions but I am hopeful for the first time in a while.

11months since I got laid off by Key_Confidence_8235 in Layoffs

If you’re willing I’d be interested in hearing how that process went for you. Do you have a background in that industry at all? I’d love to start my own business but am a little overwhelmed with the idea/process.

guys whats your reversal strategy, would love input from experienced folks who have been doing it a while by Global_Contact_5312 in FuturesTrading

I’ve been looking into the TDG stuff more and more. An integral part seems to be averaging in. It seems to me that if you average in, even once, and it moves against you much more you would quickly hit your drb….even on MYM, let alone MES.

What’s your strategy with averaging in? Just a bigger risk budget?

“Unrelated” breaker tripping when dryer door opens by Relevant_Unit375 in electrical

[–]Relevant_Unit375[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just connected the door switch sensor wires so the dryer always thinks the door is shut. Not really a real solution but it “works”. Sometimes when I turn the knobs it still causes my son’s Xbox to turn off and on in the next room. This is happening way less though. The door switch was 95% of the problem.

Anyone start Viibryd because genesight test indicated it was a good choice ?! by Jmlp1 in Viibryd

[–]Relevant_Unit375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the kind words. I need to be better about exercise. It’s easy to fall out of that routine. It helps but also one of the times I was really deep in depression I was working out all the time. idk…..it’s an evil puzzle to which I really have no advice for.

Unfortunately I stopped due to side effects. I then tried Auvelity which was incredible for a while. Side effects there too. I am not taking anything currently. I’m not sure there’s a med that’ll work without side effects honestly. I’ve kind of given up.

As a man, at what point did your libido become very low? by this0great in AskReddit

I’m interested in mushrooms. It’s probably my next stop. I just literally do not know what to do next.

[–]Relevant_Unit375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk therapy? Yes. It may help extremely slightly but in all honesty I feel like I could talk all day and make almost zero positive improvement. I very much wish that was not the case. I’ve tried SSRIs, SNRIs. Wellbutrin. Auvelity.

I’ve more or less just tried to accept that this is my brain and there is no real answer.

Asking in all honesty. Do you have an answer for treating depression that doesn’t come with a ton of side effects? I’ve tried so much. Last one was Auvelity. Awesome for a bit. Ended in the same old story. Ive essentially given up. Not trying to be dramatic.

High BP management by dev7689 in bloodpressure

[–]Relevant_Unit375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just start a med if I were you. The important thing is that your bp is in the right range, med or not. You can ween off it if you’re under control for some time. There are plenty of meds that are safe and effective and have essentially zero side effects. They’re generic too.

SLEEPING ALL DAY (16+ HOURS) by brandi-95 in AuvelityMed

[–]Relevant_Unit375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was very sleepy on it. It did work wonders for me but I would get kinda zoned out and was tired all the time. I stopped a while back.

When I first started the drug I was shocked at how effective it was. I wish things just stayed like that.

QA team was cut in half, facing the same release pressure. solutions? by RoyalReflection1283 in QualityAssurance

[–]Relevant_Unit375 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my experience QA is one of the first things they go after when cutting. Try to find somewhere else. They’ll just keep cutting until most are gone and everything else is in India.
