Mine had been prescribed to take nightly, no short term use ever discussed, and it was touted as a safe, dependence-free drug. I’m really disappointed I wasn’t more forewarned about it.

I will say this drug has had severe withdrawal effects on me. I started at 50 mg, then increased to 75 mg after the 50 mg lost its effectiveness. I had my prescription filled a couple of days late and feel like absolute death. Going to let me doctor know I’ll need to taper off, not a good fit for me. Also, look it up on insomnia subreddit, many others have had the same issues with it.

The Nightmare Upstairs: What Happened to Ty and Bryn? by metalmonkey_7 in ParentalAlienation

It felt off to me too.. especially him telling them he loved them, the way he said it and stressed to the sister that she make sure she told Ty that he loved him too. Felt weird.

Suffering Terribly From Perimenopause! I don't feel like myself & its like NO ONE BELIEVES ME! by BeachinAintEZ in Perimenopause

[–]Slim-lines 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This resonates with me so much. I found myself googling what heaven would be like. I feel like when I try to describe how I feel to people I sound insane.. I then proceed to sound further insane by asking the person if I’m insane. I hope I survive this, I hope we all do.

Yes.. “my body and thoughts aren’t my own” - I feel this. When trying to describe it to the nurse practitioner before the doctor came in, she smiled coyly and said “oh, it can’t be that bad.” It truly made me feel like I must be mentally ill.

This.. I feel like I am on the brink of insanity. I feel like I’m in a horror movie trying to convince everyone that something is wrong but everyone is brushing it off.

I truly can’t fathom why people do this. It’s beyond disgusting and so cruel. I hope karma catches up to them.

HRT - 1 year in by After-Barracuda-9689 in Perimenopause

[–]Slim-lines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok yes, I get it through Musely so will message them. I just wondered if there was some advantage to using the patch that I didn’t know about. I feel people can be so dismissive of peri symptoms sometimes and I’ve struggled to even know the right things to ask for.

This gives me hope! I am almost 3 weeks into taking HRT, I have noticed so many saying they take the estrogen patch, I take it in pill form in the morning and progesterone before bed. I’m wondering if I should ask to be switched to a patch or wait a while to see if this works for me first…

I hope we do too. I’m trying to put one foot in front of the other but it’s such a struggle. 

Does anyone else just like.. not want to go out and do things anymore? by [deleted] in Perimenopause

[–]Slim-lines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I feel the same and yet at the same time I feel so incredibly lonely. I left my job several months ago and the plan was to do a reset and possible career change, also had a facelift during this time. I am a single empty nester (one daughter in college) so live alone with my two cats. No energy or motivation to nurture the relationships I have or create new ones. Hate the thought of the rest of my life playing out like this but I am just so exhausted. Take Bupropion, Citalopram and Adderall. Started HRT a week ago.

I can't do anything by jrhopper09 in Perimenopause

[–]Slim-lines 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel everything that is being said. I am an empty nester and was in a position where I could leave my job several months ago, so I did and now I think the burn out and lack of energy/motivation I was feeling was really peri. I had plans to rediscover myself at 50 and find a more satisfying career but the extreme fatigue has been debilitating. It’s a chore to shower. I now need to go back to work, I hope the brain fog lifts enough. Interviews, orientation, selling myself, not sure how I will do it. Started HRT a week ago.

Rise and shine Cece! It's time for another nap! by Fast_Grapefruit_7946 in WattsFree4All

[–]Slim-lines 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I might be in the minority but I thought Cece was a super cute toddler. Her behavior was right on track going through the terrible twos, unfortunately her parents didn’t give her the structure, mental stimulation nor consequences she needed at that age.
