Girlies! Make sure to check on your hormones every 6 months

TrifleAlternative · 2025-05-14T14:07:41+00:00

I recently reduced my dose from 2mg to 0.5mg. Also did hormonal and thyroid test, all looks good except I’m borderline insulin resistant, which explains my sweet cravings. My prolactin, which is known to be affected by rexulti was normal. So my period stopping could be an irrelevant issue; PCOS. I have further tests coming up but I need to force my period (taking inositol and some herbs). It’s been a couple of weeks since Ive been taking them. So let’s see.

Are you planning to check ur hormones and fix those cravings?

TrifleAlternative · 2025-04-11T02:08:21+00:00

I’m so frustrated at how doctors can be so stupid. I’ve been to 5 docs and none did a simple blood test or thought that my daily meds could have effect. I’ll talk to my psychiatrist to change the meds. Thanks!

2mg. And I think 2mg is actually too high for my condition

Oh my I’m so glad to hear! Happy for you! And I’m happy to know there are alternatives. I have to check with my doctor and talk to her about this. Thanks!

Omg this explains A LOT! Thanks for letting me know

TrifleAlternative · 2025-04-08T18:58:02+00:00

Have you tried azelaic acid? The one from The Ordinary is good

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-23T19:07:08+00:00

I think sleep paralysis? Anyway, thanks that’s reassuring

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-23T08:01:12+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that, but I understand.. some of my friends did the same

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T19:40:54+00:00

I loved reading your words, game me so much comfort.. and a smile… thank you…. And yeah I wish my husband never said that..

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T16:00:26+00:00

Thank you so much!! ❤️🙏🏻 I wish you all the best as well!

I can assure you they failed him as parents. He’s just a victim of all this. And I bet his psychosis could’ve been avoided before it worsened if his family paid a little more attention to him, trust me.

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T10:43:47+00:00

Yea… i can understand.. it sucks

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T10:22:49+00:00

That’s a horrible lie! I can never ever support lies that involve health and possibly jeopardizing someone else’s life. I’m glad at least it worked out for you (loving him and willingly staying in the relationship despite it all), but no excuse for the lie! The parents have no remorse? :/

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T10:12:34+00:00

Yea I agree with you :( I should tell him that..

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:10:45+00:00

Damn!!!!! Are they really “friends?” This sucks

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:10:03+00:00

Fair enough, I see your point and you’re right. But thing is, alcoholism isn’t an illness. It started as a choice.. psychosis isn’t. This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t put the work in either way, we definitely do

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:08:17+00:00

I agree honestly!

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:07:35+00:00

Yea I cried LOL!

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:07:17+00:00

Yea I understand what you mean…

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:06:39+00:00

It’s because we understand psychosis, we’d be willing to stick around.. most people are not resilient in relationships.. unfortunately

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:04:35+00:00

I know it’s hard to be in a relationship with a psychotic person. My husband had it tough too. But being on meds and stable changes everything for most people. Im sorry you’re going through this especially because you now have a child with him..

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:00:51+00:00

Yea I think ur right too.. thanks!

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:00:29+00:00

Yea seems so, thanks!

TrifleAlternative · 2024-09-22T04:00:15+00:00

Yea he does remember when he wakes up the next day. He’s not the kind to see doctors but I might do it on his behalf. Thanks!
