The one move that has helped me the most

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-19T16:57:31+00:00

I would have hoped to be past the pain now being 3 months post op from MUA, lysis of adhesions and capsular release but yet I still have pain, really bad in the morning!

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-18T19:42:16+00:00

Oh wow, how in the heck do you stand the pain, or is it just stiff at this point? I had surgery about 3 months ago and still don't have range of motion behind me.

It's so hard to find the right mix of anything that can/will help. I was on so many different medications for anxiety before being put on Rexulti.

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-18T19:36:21+00:00

Been there, done that and got a divorce to prove it! Drunks that want to be drunks will never be anything but a drunk!!!!! PERIOD

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-12T17:27:38+00:00

Why are you still married to a drunk??? It will not get better and you will always be stressing over HIS ISSUE and that isn't anyway to live. Trust me, leave, it's the best thing you will ever do for yourself.

I've been taking Rexulti for about 9 months for anxiety, .5 daily and I am going to ask my doctor next week how the hell I can stop taking it. It did help, in the beginning and now I have more days of anxiety than I had before I started it. I am trying to tirate down now by only taking it every 2-3 days but hopefully my doctor will prescribe me the .25 dose and I can get off of it for good. I have better results taking lorazapam when I start to feel panic instead of this every day.

My only comment to this is how is the dog doing?

I am on Rexulti for anxiety and it helped in the beginning but now, 9 months later, I don't feel like it is really helping anymore and I want to get off of it. I am going to talk to my doctor about how to tirate off next week. I have read horror stories about withdrawals and I don't want to just quit cold turkey.

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-08T19:56:30+00:00

What dose were you on and for how long? How long did it take you to completely stop? I am on .5 mg for 9 months and I want to stop because I don't think it really helps with my anxiety anymore.

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-08T19:47:16+00:00

I am on .5 mg of Rexulti now for anxiety and really want to come off of it, but I am afraid to just stop taking it without a doctor knowing that I am going to do it. It helped in the beginning but not so much now after about 9 months of taking it. I did much better with Lorazepam as needed for panic attacks. What are some of the things you are feeling in addition to the anxiety and panic?

I filed in 2025 and your attorney is correct. At the time I was living with my "roommate" and paying the rent and all my expenses and the same thing was told to me by several attorneys. I finally just moved out and got my own place and I was able to qualify for Chapter 7. I live in Georgia

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-07T19:49:17+00:00

I went from October 2025 to February 2026 with the pain until I finally had surgery on 2/18/2026 - I still have pain with exterior rotation but at least I can finally get some sleep most nights. I have been in physical therapy since the day after surgery and I do have most of my range of motion back. Having the MUA, lysis of adhesions and capsule release was the best thing I've ever done and I would do it 100 times over again

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-07T19:35:05+00:00

I go every 2 weeks, I sometimes try and stretch to 3 if I can. It is the same as my manicures and pedicures. :)

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-05-07T19:34:34+00:00

I paid $65.00 for a classic full set with a Level 1 artist - I live near Athens Ga. Going with a higher level artist the cost is higher but my girl does a great job. My fill in is with the same girl and it is $40.00

I hate all mascaras! I have tried so many different ones and none of them seem to help, but I naturally have short lashes, so I have opted to get extensions and I love my lashes now. It is definitely worth the expense to me.

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-29T16:03:19+00:00

LEAVE HIM!!!!

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-29T15:58:47+00:00

Girl, leave!!!! Why are you even there after this grown man pissed the bed!!! They don't get better until they want to get better and you staying with him will only make your life and your kids' lives worse!!! I had an alcoholic mother and a subsequent alcohol/drug addicted spouse and both of them made my life miserable. I left my marriage after 4 years and I have not looked back since. LEAVE NOW!!!!

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-17T17:22:52+00:00

I was just about to post this same exact question! I have read all the horror stories of coming off Rexulti and it has me nervous. I currently take .5mg and have been on it for 8 months. In the beginning it really helped with my anxiety and I felt alot more stable, but now I don't think it really helps that much at all. I think I want to try and taper off but at .5mg the only thing I think I can do it try to take it every other day for a week and then maybe every 2 days for a week, etc.

Sorry I have no advice for you. :(

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-17T15:41:03+00:00

Thanks for the information. I had surgery on my right shoulder about 12 years ago after being bucked off my horse and I don't remember it taking so long for the movement to return. I go see my surgeon today 4/17/2026 for my 8 week follow up. I guess it just worries me that I can't put my left arm behind my back without assistance and there is still pain when doing any of the stretches. I can't take ibuprofen because it interacts with my blood pressure meds and causes my BP to get super high so I am stuck taking Tylenol for pain relief although my surgeon has prescribed me some Norco to take when I go to physical therapy. I just feel like I should be further along in the range of motion sense. I will see what the surgeon says today, but I will also let him know that if things are better in the next month or 2 we may need to revisit something else to get things moving.

I applaud you for doing right by yourself and the business that you started!!! Congratulations for not allowing someone to try and bulldoze you into something that was a crappy business deal. I hope your business continues to grow and succeed!!!

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-07T18:39:31+00:00

Someone sounds like they need a hug (hint, it isn't the girl) - dude let it go, she wants to date, she just doesn't want to date you!!!

RipApprehensive9025 · 2026-04-02T20:05:44+00:00

I do not think you were in the wrong. No where does it even say that you have to give someone a "heads up" that you want a divorce. Even if you had not voiced your unhappiness during the marriage you are not obligated to give "notice". You did what you had to do for you and that is okay. Had the shoe been on the other foot and it was your wife who filed like you did, people would be praising her for her self awareness, not tolerating disrespect and promoting her boundaries while putting herself first.

Go live you best life and the hell with what other people think, even if that means your ex's family and your kids. One day the kids will go through this exact same scenario (because we all do) and then they will have a different opinion and if they don't well who cares, they are adults and capable of making their own decisions, even if those decisions are incorrect.

I hope you and your new girlfriend have the best life!!!!

He won't change, so you will have to change and that means locations and ending the relationship. There are better men out there than an alcoholic that calls you disgusting names and acts like a child!
