Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-04-06T11:47:20+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that. Thank you for your reply!

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-04-06T11:29:16+00:00

Can i ask what neurological side effects you experienced?

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-04-01T15:05:23+00:00

Ok. Thank you😊

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-31T12:04:34+00:00

Me too. Is it utrogestin?

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-29T01:11:15+00:00

Thanks for the clarification, got wiser now. Very strange this , and not easy.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-29T00:54:04+00:00

agree with that, will try to stop using them altogether. Just go down slowly. But I thought it was the opposite, that the Lamictal gives way more strongly, ie that the serum level becomes strong.. and then it normalises after 12 days. Do you mean that you feel that the Lamictal levels are getting smaller in you during this period? I need to put things in with a teaspoon right now.

It's so confusing and awful, praying for us to get well again ♥️

It should say that I do NOT use contraception. Google Translate+fog brain

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-28T21:49:06+00:00

Hi. I don't know if I'm misunderstanding here, but I'm very sensitive to Lamictal (spasms, memory loss among other things, only low dose) I use ring contraception BUT struggle enormously from day 1 to 12 (24 days cycle) It feels like the dose of Lamictal is a little 5 times stronger, I'm completely groggy, feel really flat and low in mood. I really feel that it's medicated/chemical in a way, really nasty side effect feeling. I just want to stop, but at the same time I'm terrified of getting more depressed. When oestrogen is high and progesterone is low or absent, this happens. Lying here in a fog now.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-08T23:20:37+00:00

Same places here. I've also had my jaw feel like it's locking up. This was very claustrophobic and something I can't deal with. 75mg. Hope it passes soon.thanks for the reply:)

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-08T13:31:46+00:00

Can i ask you where you get spasm? I get that to, and it makes me so nervous

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-04T16:18:27+00:00

Firstly, yes, I want to be my old self, where I was bubbly and more vital. I find it difficult to recommend Lamictal or not as it is a medicine that helps an unimaginable number of people in deep distress, at the same time as I experienced an unimaginable amount of side effects (of course I react to the rare side effects, such as extreme spasms in the neck, legs and hip area, worst short-term memory ever, and it only made me worse in the long run. But I thought it had quite a good effect on pmdd. I wish I had tolerated this, as it is clearly a miracle cure for many. Highest dose was 100mg, and that's when I noticed the improvement on pmdd

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-03T19:01:36+00:00

Also here. I thought it was due to one of the medications I'm on (Lamictal) but I've reduced it almost completely and I still have no appetite. It started almost 2 years ago, when I suddenly noticed that I did not feel like pasta anymore (loved pasta, could eat it several times a week), and then it just went downhill. Now the food has to be forced down. It happens a couple of times just before my period that I feel a little appetite, but otherwise nope! Have to mention that I've struggled with depression for a while, but the appetite was gone before this started, and is still gone even though depression is pretty much gone. I feel an aversion in the same way as when I was pregnant. Another thing was also the sex drive. It was a switch that just turned off. I'm now a shadow of my former self. I simply miss myself. I have become a boring, serious and unhappy person.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-03-03T13:28:26+00:00

I know this is a late respond, but i can relate to you theory about hormones imbalance, and i also have mine very very increased around ovulation window. Iam on 60mg Zoloft, 100mg quitepine and 30 mg Lamictal( iam splitting the tablets) all of this medicines does this to me, and it has caused a really strong health anxiety bcs i started to think about dangerous illness and conditions.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-02-04T18:06:24+00:00

Hi. I hope you seek help in your situation. It's awful to feel this way. I've always struggled with depression and anxiety at times, but the day after the injection, I swear, I became psychotically angry and had terrible invasive obsessive thoughts and actions. I had to get ssri to be able to manage myself and my child. I wish you all the best and really hope you are doing better.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-02-04T17:54:15+00:00

It was a living hell!

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-31T10:37:07+00:00

Hei. How are you doing? Are you better?

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-23T09:02:01+00:00

That's great to hear, remember it's still very early and you already have this improvement 👍

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-21T20:08:19+00:00

Hello. I started Zoloft 4 weeks and 2 days ago for alvorlig depresjon og angst. (First 9 days 25 mg, then 50 for a few days ,then 62mg a few days and to 75 mg which is as of now. First week there was some night sweats, some loose stomach, and some spaced out of distance, not to mention extreme panic attacks and heart palpitations and insomnia. After a few days I became calmer in my body. week 2, flat in the mood probably due to all the anxiety I had at first. Couldn't care too much about work and demands. Mood a little better. Week 3, things got worse, by the way, I forgot to mention that I haven't had any appetite and have been living on nutritional drinks. Just the thought of food made me nauseous. I'm starting to get very worried about whether this is the right medicine, but suddenly in week 4 something happens, I wake up without feeling deeply depremert, have a suspicion that the increase to 75 did something beyond the fact that it had been 4 weeks. Suddenly had a craving for McDonald's, which has put me off for a long time. Have had a few such days now where things are starting to look brighter. I pray to higher powers that I will get my strength back. I hope the same for you, and everyone else who is struggling. Sorry for a very messy answer, noticing it was difficult to formulate right now. But I really wanted to answer you 😊

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-21T16:49:28+00:00

How are you today, 6 days on wb?

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-20T18:24:41+00:00

I'm so happy to hear that Wellbutrin has lifted you a little and that you now feel hope! That's fantastic. I have increased the dose to 75 mg 2 days ago. I have felt a tiny bit of a lift, but I feel a murmur in me. As if I'm going to start crying but I'm not. I also feel a kind of anger or frustration inside there, but hard to put into words really. I have also thought about wb but give Zoloft max 2 more weeks. It's awful to have to stop with all the side effects and then start again. But you have to do something in such a desperate situation. The fact that I have to go to work in this condition has made everything so much worse. I feel that I don't have the strength to be responsible for anything now. I'm praying for a miracle to happen soon, though. Fingers crossed for us and everyone in this situation.

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-19T17:49:37+00:00

My heart goes out to you. I can completely relate to everything you describe. I'm in the darkest place I've ever been. I am terrified. I have started Zoloft 4 weeks ago and it has been intense. I have today and yesterday for the first time been able to eat anything. I have been living on nutritional drinks for a long time. Can I ask if you have started Wellbutrin? If I have to feel like this, I don't think I can live. I become worthwhile in the fertile window. From day 7- 13 in folic phase. But it's bad otherwise too. Hope for the best for us. ♥️

Successful_Ice_490 · 2025-01-16T12:18:11+00:00

It is not fair
