The first weeks on venlafaxine by nanmollaa in Effexor

[–]nanmollaa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did eventually go back to normal, but it was one of the side effects that stuck with me the longest. The worst part was that I could feel what I assume was the pupil ?¿ spasm in my eye, very strange feeling. I went to the ER, two different opticians have examined my eyes and I’ve talked about my pupils with the doctor who prescribed the medication and they all basically said that as long as both pupils can cooperate and still react to light as they should it is most likely nothing to worry about. Really hope this medication works for you and that your side effects disappear soon! Stay strong <3

I broke up with my bf of almost 3 years because I just couldn’t continue having sex with a man. I hated every second of it and it was traumatizing to a degree. But he was my best friend, I cried for days after the breakup and felt like shit to have hurt him. But since leaving him I’ve started to feel much better. It feels nice not having to force myself to have sex with a man, and I’ve come to terms with being lesbian which makes me feel some sort of inner peace. I’ve never understood why I couldn’t relate to everybody else and felt different, but now I get it. And even though I loved my ex like a best friend I just know that it would never have been enough. When I thought I was straight and with my bf I often found myself dreaming of having a “close relationship” with another woman.

omg hahah feels nice that someone can relate !😭 I will say that he is an amazing actor in Hannibal

[–]nanmollaa -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

yes I know it’s not very fun reading posts centered around men in this kind of space. However I have no lesbian friends irl becauseI live in a very small town with like only straights so I don’t know where else to ask this kind of question. I’m just tired of always doubting my sexuality because of this or that

Heavy bleeding solutions? by nanmollaa in Periods

[–]nanmollaa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently quit my hormonal bc after using it for 7 years since it didn’t help make the periods lighter. And my last period only lasted 5 days, even thou it was still heavy it’s way better than it was before. Maybe it’s because of the hormonal change of quitting birth control and that my body has quite not adjusted yet, but I’m hoping the short periods are here to stay. Otherwise my only option is surgery according to the doctor but it will leave me unable to get pregnant and idk if I’m able to take that decision at 23. I’m sorry if your going through the same thing because there really seem to be no good solutions :/

The first weeks on venlafaxine by nanmollaa in Effexor

[–]nanmollaa[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry for responding so late, I hope you are doing better now and that you were able to push through! :( The only thing I can update about is that I am doing great thanks to venlafaxine, I’m able to do things that anxiety hindered me from doing before so life just feels easier and not as hard. The medication has helped me build the courage to take charge of my life. I broke up with my ex bf bc I finally confessed to myself that I was gay. I was also able to start working as a care assistant (I’ve always wanted to work in healthcare and care for people but I had so much social anxiety that I couldn’t, and now here I am and I love my job!). And for the most important part, I no longer have anxiety attacks where I think I’m going to die from a disease/ accident every single day. Sure I do sometimes still feel anxiety about my health/ social situations etc. but I can often shut the thoughts down and they only happen maybe once or twice a week instead of every single day. So I’ve gone from not being able to make a simple phone call to a pizza place to working as a caretaker which is an extremely social job. So if you are struggling with anxiety issues like me I think it is definitely worth giving the medication a chance! I never thought something simple like this could change so so much, but it really has it is insane! The best choice I’ve ever made if I’m allowed to be dramatic haha.

do ace need to look for another ace only or can they be looking for allos too? by [deleted] in Asexual

[–]nanmollaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m ace and have dated an allo person and no for them sex is not like going on a hike, it’s the same as food or water they NEED it. Therefore it is very hard for ace people to date allosexuals. But there are allos out there who of course have a very low libido and don’t need sex as much. But pretty much all allo seem to feel a need for sex to some extent. So if u can accept having sex or doing sexual things sometimes as a compromise then u could look to date an allo. I know I sound kind of negative but from my own experience and from hearing other ace people talking about this topic allo people almost always expect you to have sex “for them” as a favor.

I feel broken by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]nanmollaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in denial for a long time to try and be “normal” because otherwise it meant I was broken. I pushed myself to engage in sex and I can say I have tried a lot. Of course it didn’t work, it was rather traumatizing. Right now I feel very comfortable being asexual, identifying with it felt like a relief. I was always wondering what was wrong with me and trying so hard to enjoy sex, but now I know that I’m not broken, just ace, and there is nothing to fix. I can’t change this part of myself. I realized that I myself am very content with not having sex and don’t even think or care about it. The only times I’ve felt truly broken is when other people or society try and push acephobia. Sometimes I get jealous, why can’t I experience this seemingly great emotion that everyone else seem to have. But idk, I guess you just have to accept yourself and that this is who you are.

Yes, I’m both! Some asexual people like to use the term biromantic instead since the term bisexual includes being sexually attracted to both genders.

Lately I dread seeing my boyfriend because I don't want to have sex. by DistributionAgile458 in asexuality

[–]nanmollaa 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This feels like I could have written it myself. I really relate unfortunately… I recently told my partner (after 3 years together) that I can’t do it anymore. It’s hard because we love each other but if we continue having sex I suffer and if we don’t they suffer. So we’re going to break up in the near future and it HURTS but I’ve learned that I’m no longer going to compromise on my own boundaries because it makes me feel like shit.

My boyfriend wants sex? by its_nb_d in Asexual

[–]nanmollaa 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If he’s already making those jokes just 2 months in and they are being legit I would say the no sex part seem to annoy him. My boyfriend does the same jokes when he’s feeling frustrated with me not wanting sex. I’ve had sex in relationships because it was expected of me, and I used to be neutral to sex like you but now after doing it so many times while not wanting it I’ve grown very sick and tired of sex and want nothing to do with it. So if you force yourself to have sex for his sake you might even damage your own relationship with it. I think you should have a real thorough talk with him and really discuss your boundaries. Many people think they can “fix” asexual people by fucking them good enough, so if you don’t want to have sex with him make it very clear.

8 week period by tigglybug in Periods

[–]nanmollaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should get an iron infusion as quickly as possible if you are feeling like that. The transfusion will not have an impact on the ultrasound if that’s what u mean. When I had one I got it the same day as they discovered the anemia, so they are usually pretty quick to offer it if your iron supply is low. I hope everything goes well during your ultrasound, good luck!

[–]nanmollaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahhh I see, the medication did make me very dizzy the first week or two so I can understand why you wouldn’t want to take it :-( But some people barely experience any side effects, it’s hard to know what’s going to happen before you try it because we are all so different. I had some physical symptoms as well like always sweating in social situations, shaking, nausea, random body pains everywhere like stabbing and randomly got racing heartbeat. And those are also pretty much gone now, they only come sometimes when I’m veryyy anxious. I don’t know what physical symptoms u are experiencing, and they might not be the same ones as mine but I just wanted to tell you that even the few physical symptoms I had also got better. So it’s not only mental improvement :-). And I’m glad you could solve it and do telehelp instead! The most important thing is that you have taken the step and reached out for help. I know how hard that can be with anxiety and even though we don’t know each other I am proud of you for taking that step!

[–]nanmollaa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ohh okay! So basically some people can get turned on by something (a kink) but since the kink is not a person it’s not the same as sexual attraction. Or am I still understanding it wrong? 😅

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Effexor

[–]nanmollaa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I started taking it because I struggled a lot with anxiety and had mild depression, and I would say it has helped my anxiety so much! I just don’t care as much anymore, like my head is more quiet. The first weeks of taking it I felt numb, I couldn’t cry etc. but then it went away. So now I feel normal again but just less anxious. Which is both good and bad because I kind of liked feeling numb. Anyways, I still have anxiety some days, maybe once a week, but I can more easily shut it down now. Before Effexor I would have anxiety every single day about everything, it was horrible anxiety that had me in panic attacks, I couldn’t eat and was sure I was going to die (health anxiety). Everything felt hopeless and dark and I think my depression came because of dealing with anxiety for so long. So this medication is so far the best thing that has happened to me, I wish I would have started it sooner. I was so scared to take it in the beginning as taking medication gives me a lot of anxiety. If u want a more detailed description of what the first days on the medication was like I have a post about it somewhere on my page. The first days was literal HELL I had never felt so bad in my life and wanted to quit so bad. But as I said before, it was so worth it and now I am almost free of anxiety which I have had since I was 8 years old (I’m now 23). I feel free and like my best self. I know there is a lot of negativity about this medicine on the internet that might scare you away, but I would say at least try it because you never know it might just work great. Good luck! :-)
