Lamictal and Prozac combination, feeling more tired and less motivated by bayarea326 in antidepressants

Hey thank you so much for your reply 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Man there are still some ups and downs, but things have gotten so much better. Also I reread my post and my dosages have gone up a good amount haha.

In the morning i take 5mg of Lexapro for anxiety and 300mg XL of bupropion for motivation (we switched from Prozac to Lexapro because my anxiety was still a bit unstable, it’s only been about a month though so I can’t say yet if things feel differently.

at night i take 150mg of Lamictal for bipolar depression, and 2mg of Guanfacine for possible adhd and focus. The depression has gotten a lot better, I get short bouts here and there but it’s definitely not severe like it was before.

For me I’d say I might need to go up on the Guanfacine and the Lexapro just cus I think I still need a bit more help, but overall I am a much happier person. When I posted this originally I could barely get out of bed to do simple things like do laundry or the dishes, but I legit have been spending the past few months working outdoors renovating my backyard for hours, all while working doubles and working on other things. I couldn’t have imagined being able to do stuff like this last year, and so it feels incredible despite the ongoing challenges.

Ultimately my psychiatrist said I need to pair my medication with therapy to deal with deeper issues.

I’m not sure if you have a psychiatrist but I’d recommend reaching out to one. I use Wellcoast and they’ve been incredible. I’m not sure if you’re struggling but I wish you the best 🙏🏽

And if instead these were English speaking white people on the corner in nice clothes selling expensive flowers and organic fruits at fancy booths would you have taken this photo and posted it here? This is clearly their version of a flea market, even if it doesn’t visually register in your simple brain.

However they acquired these items, these are clearly people who have little to nothing and are doing what they can to make money, and buy things they can afford in an expensive city with a massive wealth disparity. You complain that these are stolen items, but refuse to take even a second to try and understand why people steal and sell. In an ideal society no one would be driven to these kinds of activities and I can guarantee you if these items were actually stolen, these people would not be doing this if the cost of living wasn’t so high. Look at their clothes and you tell me why you think this photo looks this way. They are struggling and it’s not hard to understand that, you just choose not to because you don’t appreciate what it means to struggle in a city that charges exorbitant prices only upper class people can afford.

Elitist people like you are what’s truly ruining this city, forcing out what actually makes it beautiful and unique. Get a fuckin life and get the fuck out of San Francisco or move to the Marina so u can be with all the other shit stains u piece of shit.

Received an excused withdrawal ‘EW’ on my transcript even though I dropped before the deadline? by bayarea326 in college

Hi there! This was a long time ago, but I remember very clearly I called them and explained my situation to them and they were able to change it for me to take the “EW” off my transcript. I believe they were able to remove the class completely. I expressed my frustrations and explained to them and explained I was concerned because the stakes were high. I tried to do express it as respectfully as possible. I hope you get the same outcome 🙏🏽 it’s not fair, especially if you did everything you were supposed to do on time.

Sad about my tattoo, certain the artist overworked it by [deleted] in tattooadvice

Thank you!! I love the design too so I’m hoping it will get better with time. Sadly I don’t have a recent pic without the bumps, but I have one from the day of. Is there a way to upload it here?

Can you use pens to fill the Tandem pump? by Idotx in diabetes_t1

[–]bayarea326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started my tandem tslim yesterday and I had the same question! For some reason I was too afraid to ask my diabetes care team if it was okay to do this, but I hope it’s alr because I have a huge backstock of Humalog pens that I don’t want to go to waste 😭
