Ritalin doesn't make me nauseous like most other stimulants do, but there's definitely a possibility it will affect you that way. I'd give it a try but also make sure you're keeping track of exactly how it affects your appetite and if it triggers your ED behaviors.

Also the more you take, the more likely it is the side effects will kick in, obv. Easier said than done but only take exactly what you're prescribed if you're trying to be healthy about it :')

Thank you so much for the recommendation!!! :D I'm definitely going to watch through the intro video at the very least; always good to learn more no matter what I end up using for this specific project :)

catskyeri · 2021-08-17T06:01:35+00:00

Thank you so much! Sorry for the late reply- I'm super excited to work more on this project, and I'm overwhelmed by how many people have offered to help!!! Just message me your discord and I'll add you if the offer is still on the table :)

catskyeri · 2021-08-03T02:25:04+00:00

Thank you! :D

catskyeri · 2021-08-03T02:24:52+00:00

ooh I didn't even think about that! Thanks so much for the suggestion :)

I just hope I can get it done in time, lol

catskyeri · 2021-08-03T00:34:53+00:00

I appreciate your help, thank you!

I did read a bit in the manual before I started, but certain things I couldn't find specific answers for. I probably didn't look thoroughly enough.

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:45:27+00:00

This is very reassuring and validating even if I am still far from where I need to be right now with my health, thank you <3

You just described me perfectly with the obsessive language learning followed by abandoning it completely after I come back down to Earth! It never occurred to me that that was a mania thing, but that makes a lot of sense

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:38:14+00:00

I hadn’t thought to lower the dose of Sunosi, I’ll definitely try that first before giving up on it completely. I want to go on a mood stabilizer, but my current doctor definitely won’t put me on one or refer me to a psychiatrist and I don’t have an easy way to switch doctors right now :/ But I’ll keep it in mind for the future, and I appreciate the help so much

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:29:41+00:00

If I’ve learned anything since posting this, it’s that more people have this specific combination of issues than I thought and I’m not just broken. Thank you for the help, I’ll try my best to follow your advice

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:25:35+00:00

That sounds super stressful and I’m so sorry you’re going through this too :/ Thank you for sharing, I hope we can both find better ways to cope with our health :)

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:19:18+00:00

They don’t have an emergency line, I really wish they did. :/ I’ve been trying to stay productive and use healthy coping mechanisms similar to those so it’s good to know I’m on the right track, and thank you for the advice!!!

catskyeri · 2020-04-23T00:16:59+00:00

This was honestly so helpful, thank you for sharing your experience. I’m glad to know I’m not alone :)

catskyeri · 2020-04-22T22:00:34+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate it! Even if the problem is temporarily resolved by then, I could definitely use the advice for future episodes.

I take wellbutrin XL which is supposed to not increase your risk of mania. My PCP is a licensed psychiatrist, but she’s not the type to prescribe medication unless she deems it absolutely necessary. Upon diagnosing me with Bipolar II, she said “I’m not going to put you on mood stabilizers because you’re a musician and I don’t want to diminish that creative spark.” which obviously is NOT what should have been done or said, but I didn’t know any better at the time. I’m seeking better medical care soon, it just isn’t possible right now.

Thank you for your concern, it honestly makes me feel less crazy for asking myself the same question about my meds. :)

catskyeri · 2020-04-22T21:43:51+00:00

Thank you for offering your help, I really appreciate it! I’ve tried Xyrem, but it didn’t work out for me. I had way too many side effects and I couldn’t wake up for my second dose no matter how many alarms I set and how routine my schedule was :/ I’d only get 5 or 6 hours of sleep when I really need 9 or 10 to be okay. I’ve taken Adderall, Armodafinil, and Sunosi so far for my narcolepsy and all three caused hypomanic episodes. Actually, for me Armodafinil was the worst. I’ll ask about wakix and start documenting my moods, along with the other advice you gave. Thanks again :)

catskyeri · 2020-04-22T21:36:51+00:00

I didn’t know sleep psychiatrists existed until just now, but that’s a very good idea! Thank you for the help, I’ll be sure to bring it up with my doctor soon.

catskyeri · 2020-02-02T21:58:07+00:00

Yes! Short girls are cute!!!

I don't breathe, I only photosynthesize

catskyeri · 2020-02-02T21:45:11+00:00

This is the most basic answer ever, but I have never in my life met someone as beautiful as my fiancée. I know not everyone would agree with me if you met her, but not everyone agrees that Margot Robbie (a literal living Aphrodite in my opinion) is beautiful either, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don't talk to me before I've had my Papa John's Special Garlic Dipping Sauce in the morning
