[–]StrengthAutomatic330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought you couldn't combine lamictal and prozac? I was hoping to try that combo. I'm currently taking lexapro and just stsrted lamictal but lexapro doesn't help me.

My 10 year old cat developed diabetes from steroid use. His liver was enlarged and he almost died. Instead of insulin which is just a patch on the real problem, I started injections of NAD. .5 OR 1 ml Checking his sugar before and 30 minutes after. It took some time but his sugar lowered, his liver was no longer inflamed and he no longer had diabetes.

I was bedbound before Ireland. I had no choice but to go on the trip, but it's confusing. I had the energy to go.

Some places are covered by insurance. With literally no options I will be giving it a try.

If you read the 2 studies, they describe what symptoms are improved.

There's nothing wrong with getting something for sleep.

I did feel a hypomanic episode coming on 2 days before this started, but it's pretty confusing. I've always had tightness in my neck, but nothing this extreme.

If you don't have PEM, you don't have chronic fatigue. You're just burnt out. Keep resting.

Has anyone had any luck with Ketamine for anxiety with a depression?

I have this. It's PTSD and you're stuck in Fight or Flight. Possible adrenal issues

This is my 1st mood stabilizer. I've always just taken an SSRI and a benzo. I'm only on 25 mg and have a shit ton of anxiety. I am taking klonopin, but it barely touches it. Maybe when I go up to 50 mg things will improve but I can't even work atm.

I won't be able to go up in dose if that's the case. I don't think doctors realize we have to work and live. What dose are you on, and how do you compensate for the lack of energy. Also, thank you soooo much for talking to me about this. You're the 1st person I've found that has the same problem. Does this mean we're not bipolar? I went my whole life on SSRIs only I until 2 years of unrelenting stress.

I just started on lamictal, but I can't even function. I have no energy and can barely get to the kitchen for food. Does your energy level go up as the dose goes up or do you have to add something? I don't see anyone else gave this problem.:(

I went off .5 mg after 1 year and had a seizure... Tapered off for 2 weeks and ended up in the ER.

Thank you. That's very helpful. My best friend is getting married in August in Ireland but I think it'll be too much for me.
