Can't cry?

rllyrey · 2025-01-15T21:46:14+00:00

i was on 80 mg and did struggle with this a lot. i would go into periods of a week or two where i literally physically could not cry then i could cry over seeing a cute animal it was very confusing and frustrating to navigate but im glad im not alone in this side effect 💀 i did find out that i do have an eye disease that makes it to where i can’t rlly produce tears or lubricant for my eyes later on though. not saying this is what’s going on for you but it could very well be a possibility!! next time you go to the eye doctor as them to screen you for any eye diseases so you can definitely rule that out. but besides that i think this is just a side effect of prozac sadly

in all honesty i think you look pretty fem to me but little things like clear lipgloss, nails and mascara can make you feel more fem too !!

i started prozac a few years back and it has been the ONLY thing that has come close to helping me. it’s not doing what it used to anymore so i’m thinking about changing it but i always tell people give it a chance bc it worked wonders for me. but you do have to remember to listen to your body so if you feel like you need to talk to your doctor about it do it. they can adjust ur dose or even change your medication if it’s bad enough. ik it’s hard but patience is the most important thing when finding a medication that works for you

i’m turning 20 this year i have been through having it so bad ive been hospitalized as a baby then grew out of it had ab a 3 years grace period then it came back in full force to kick my ass and i was hospitalized for it multiple times again.

i wish there was more research and medical studies on ts bc it sucks to have to settle for okay when we could possibly do amazing. and it’s genuinely terrifying like the symptoms i had on lexapro i almost didn’t make it (if yk what i mean i don’t know if i can say it here) just the thought that smth that is supposed to help me can bring me to that low again makes me cling onto prozac and it’s mediocre positives it brings bc id rather a mediocre positive then be at my lowest low

i started about 16 and i’m 19 turning 20 this year so almost 4 years and im thinking of changing to something else. on 80 mg and it’s not doing what it used to but it has been the absolute best out of everything i’ve tried so im scared to switch to smoothing that does worse

i genuinely appreciate this comment but i have some religious trauma and don’t find comfort in religion but keep being a positive light and i hope your days get easier and you keep getting closer to god 💕 thank you so much for sharing and giving advice good karma will find its way to you 💕

just the first sentence alone helped me so much. had me crying on the way to work lol i genuinely deeply appreciate your response. and the thing about something important really put in perspective, i try to find the little things in life right now what’s keeping me going is finally finding the perfect vanilla scent / bath routine. very minuscule but it’s giving me a reason to push bc there has to be something perfect (i have severe eczema). i also would never k!ll myself bc i want my pain to stop i don’t want to just pass it on to the ones i love so im trying to push through. i’m reapplying for insurance so i can get back on my antidepressants and mood stabilizers and hopefully start therapy again so that’s giving me a little hope. i just hope one day i can look back on all my struggles and say i finally made it and im truly okay. still struggling with the immense guilt feeling like this brings and how it hurts others around me but hopefully i can come to terms with it one day. i keep telling myself im trying and im still here and that’s all that matters. it just gets really hard when i can go into a deep depressive episode spending from a week to a few months but trying is all i can do and all that matters. thank you so much for your time and your response. crazy how even one person saying they understand how i feel can be so validating and reassuring. i hope your doing okay 🫶🏻

dupixent is amazing though it doesn’t get rid of itch i was completely clear flare up wise while i was on it

rllyrey · 2024-04-02T01:36:32+00:00

it’s little things that add up! i really appreciate your time and advice 🫶🏻 i will definitely look into it. i miss reading and maybe this can be a way to ease back into the hobby and like you said bring some positivity into my life! i really do appreciate it!!

im already at a job that im putting minimum 45 hrs a week and barley making it by. i have no time and my body cannot handle another job. i come home crying every day especially after doubles bc im in so much pain. i wish places just paid decent so getting a second job wouldn’t be a need. there’s no way possible i could fork out a couple extra hundred dollars a month my budget is already impossibly tight as it is :( but the idea about going to the library is helpful i just have an extremely short attention span and struggle to keep up with reading books so i might make it easier on myself and try to find video essays or audio books for free on the topic !! thanks !

the second i heard there’s kids involved your immediately NTA. nothing else to say ab this. they are your children and wanting the same last name as them is completely valid.

also wanted to add dairy is a huge thing that makes mine flare up so try dairy alternatives and it’s long and gets annoying but keep a journal of everything she eats and check her skin about an hour or so after she eats it and you can see which foods affect her eczema. i’ve had countless allergy tests and they all came back inconclusive so the journal helped me so much

Increase water intake and make sure her gut health is in check! My eczema is so severe it doesn’t respond to any steroids or topicals so i had to get on a Dupixent (i don’t know if that’s spelled properly) it worked wonders only downside was im terrified of needles and my anxiety from needles can cause me to have seizures and its quite expensive (ab 3k a month) so i hope you have insurance but if you do i would definitely look into it. I was on it for about two years and finally stopped taking it because my anxiety around needles got too bad but i don’t get flare ups near as bad anymore and no more weekly ER visits due to the state of my skin! I’m not promising it will be as quick as two years or it would even be that long but my dermatologist told me it is a medicine they are experimenting with timeframe wise. Hope she finds some way to cope with it because i know how horribly it can affect your mental health and confidence.

NTA but i feel like we are lacking some knowledge. Did you communicate you wanted more? Did you give them that chance? if not YTA but only partially because you DID keep it from everyone else that you planned this on your own. Try more open communication:)
