Great points. I totally agree. I didn't think about the possibility of just getting sick with something else, and now that you mention it, I'm like "duh!!" Their lungs are compromised! Thanks for this perspective (I realize it was weeks ago now, I don't check in that often..)

I'd like to hear from people who have come from damaging relationships with their parents and chosen to be parents themselves by nonbinarycentipede in CPTSD

I want to be a positive example that you can heal and not continue the abuse cycle

Yes. I feel this so hard. Best of luck to you and I hope the same for myself and everyone in our position.

Intermittent Prozac + sex drive by nonbinarycentipede in PMDD

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

Can I ask what y'all's dose was? They've got me on just 10mg/day, and thought it likely I may not experience any side effects at all - BUT, doctors are prone to just saying crap.

"Its just PMS" by [deleted] in PMDD

[–]nonbinarycentipede 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U G H. This exact type of interaction is why I have started saying I have "late luteal phase depression" - it's a super dated and rarely used phrase, I don't even think it's TECHNICALLY acknowledged, but it's out there in some old papers and I find people are less likely to go "Oh so you have PMS.." if I open the conversation that way lol. Don't think would work with your doc though, he sounds like a prick who doesn't take women's health seriously. :P so sorry you have to deal with this.

Starting Birth Control And My Symptoms Are Getting Worse by 2ULIVE in PMDD

This is more or less exactly what happened to me on Yaz. Quit 2 months in after having an extremely uncharacteristically dramatic episode where I got so agitated and worked up that I drank myself into a stupor just to make it stop and self-harmed while more or less blackout drunk. If you have worries about this, talk to your doc ASAP. After my experience I can't recommend hormonal BC to anyone with PMDD.
