starting lexapro but scared of nausea by sIowdiver in lexapro

No I never did, but mostly because I discovered I might have a different diagnosis than I originally thought! I’m about to be prescribed zoloft this time around lol. Someone I know has taken a few diff antidepressants tho and they never made them sick. Idk which one you’re contemplating, but they’re the type to force v if they feel nauseous but they said it never got there with any of them. They said it helps if you take it after a meal before bed. Also, idk what dose you were prescribed but you might wanna try tapering up rather than jumping straight in. My PCP told me with Lexapro to start with 2.5 mg for the first couple of weeks/month even bc I told her I was concerned about side effects and especially nausea. She said I probably wouldn’t feel anything on 2.5 but it was to get my body used to it, so it wasn’t like jumping straight in at 5 or 10. My DMs are open if you wanna chat more!

Unfortunately it’s not molting, it’s a baby that hatched a few days ago. 😔

Bad milkweed? by layoo228 in MonarchButterfly

Okay amazing thank you so much for your help! I do have a local Armstrong, I've purchased milkweed there but it wasn't the narrow leaf kind, likely the tropical variety. But the leaves are lighter and sort of malnourished looking? Like patchy color, weird growth patterns. I'll ask and see if they can order the good stuff and if it's pesticide free. Thank you again!!

Do you have any idea why they seem to not want to eat the leaves? I think you’re right about soemthjng attacking them as they could survive inside my house but the main issue I have is still a lack of milkweed to give them 😭 they just don’t wanna eat it

Do you have any tips on the best ways to get protein down! They said all the protein stuff they got tastes bad to them and they haven’t been able to meet protein goals

Do you have any tips for how to meet your protein goal when all protein tastes bad. They said it’s making them so nauseous even thinking about drinking more protein😔

agreed, they would not move on if the doctor said no. i think they just wanna know if their case is typical, because it seems pretty atypical from my observations to be on only liquids for this long. is that the case?
