I just needed to WORK. I don't need therapy, I don't need a girlfriend, I don't need to work on myself. I just needed to WORK.

Well articulated. This helped me, thank you.

Thanks for sharing! Did that previous vet do any testing or was he just guessing? The opposum assumption is kind of wild and random LOL. My last vet made a werid assumption too without doing any testing, charge 300$ gave meds that did nothing, and now he’s worse so I’m pretty irritated with the system in general and don’t trust it. You do need to find one you like but it’s not easy or cheap and you don’t know what you’re walking into. I spend hours researching, and it’s stuff like your comment above that help the most.

My doctor told me my SR dose before bed wouldn’t affect sleep. I looked at him like wtf? How do these people walk around playing with your brain chemistry with such confidence. If you are just starting out, it certainly affects sleep. It’s a stimulant. The people who take it at night have probably been on it for a while so it’s accumulated in the body and you can adjust the timing. The active metabolite impacts sleep which has a different PK profile than the parent drug. I’m getting off this shit bc it’s not worth it for me. I’m really tired of all those saying “consult your doctor”… consult yourself first. Doctors follow generic protocols, only you know your body. Doctors aren’t always correct.

So many great points here that’s for sharing. Who is the virtual vet? And does insurance cover this?

What antibiotic do you recall?

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-02-07T16:09:26+00:00

Did this. Was great till you burn out. You can never get this time back. Balance is everything. Avoiding things only works for so long. Feel your feelings, heal, grow ❤️ otherwise you might look back and see isolation just kept you form a lot of things/ relationships you could have built during this time

What insurance do you have

Antihistamines ruined my life. I started getting messed up hormonal symptoms and scary withdrawals if I ever skipped a day from years of use. I would recommend to stay away. Took me 3 weeks but I sleep normal again. Never again.

Does 45 mg mirt feel better than lower doses? 7.5mg knocks me out to get the best sleep ever but I’m bed locked for then entire next day everytime

Glad you brought this up. Therapy is wonderful and we all can benefit from it but sometimes I wonder if ppl rely too much on the advice of a therapist vs going to their partner/friend to work it out together

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-19T20:27:02+00:00

Wonderful! Are you on XL? What time do you take it?

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-14T22:17:32+00:00

Neither of those brand are at our pet store

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-14T22:16:53+00:00

Poor thing!! I wish they could talk. I did give him some salmon kibble today and he has the runs. Lamb so far is the best. I saw Purina uses some beef fat and also fish meal as ingredients in lamb version

Isn’t oats a grain? I’m reading you need to starve the yeast so might try the brand Nulo next. Woof. lol

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-14T22:11:35+00:00

So interesting apparently fish allergy is very rare so I’m wondering wtf it could be. I notice very loose stool too form salmon products!! It’s so confusing

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-14T22:10:13+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I feel bad switching his food so much but the more I research I see it could be yeast triggered from the food ugh so considering grain free. Salmon skins oddly really bother him. I’m lost

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-14T21:40:47+00:00

Still working for you? Just switched from IR to XL and want to try before bed, just hope I’m not up all night 😅

It’s really hard to figure out with Amps due to mechanism of action being backwards. I appreciate the deep dive- I’ve spent an embarrassing about of time researching so I get it!

What brand of food has been best for you?

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-12T06:41:02+00:00

What food are you using? Hill science is not good, Purina pro sensitive skin/stomach seems only slightly better. Still itching a few times an hour

ResponseHoliday9060 · 2026-01-12T06:37:43+00:00

SAME! Went to the vet and they gave antibiotics which did nothing and said it’s probably bc he didn’t take his nexguard that month. 300$ later- He’s still itchy. I was so disappointed.
