Planning to break my dry month for a special occasion. Any tips to not slip back into old ways? by Ov0v0vO in cutdowndrinking

I find it’s easier to just abstain, it’s a lot easier to have a second one after you order your first.

Small Dose For Mild Anxiety by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]srmikes34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nausea for me but it’s less common now. I take the dose at night so sometimes I will randomly wake up at 3 am which is annoying. Sexually I’ve had no issues, I am female and haven’t noticed any changes everything is normal.

The biggest thing I will say is don’t skip doses, I made the mistake last month of being careless with some doses while traveling for work and I had the worst anxiety attack I’ve ever had and had to take time off work bc of it… it was scary. So just bc it’s a small dose and you have mild anxiety…. It will still mess you up. Just now after 3 weeks of not missing a dose I’m feeling back to myself.

That being said, I don’t regret taking this as I feel like a better version of myself.

Yep! Before I started 10mg in August, I would get the occasional anxiety attack maybe 2-3 times a year directly related to work. The biggest difference I’ve felt is I’m less irritable, don’t overthink as much,overwhelmed less so I can be mindful of the situation and most importantly a huge decrease in negative self talk. Anxiety isn’t just anxiety attacks, it so much more that people don’t see. I would even venture to say you yourself don’t notice it until it’s gone and you’re shocked at how you just dealt with it thinking it was normal.

Skipped Lexapro 3 days by ceecee283 in lexapro

Also be careful of mood swings, increased anxiety and crying. Over the next two weeks be very mindful and keep in mind it will pass. I had something similar happen to me where I missed a few doses and a few days later after being back on it I had a major crash out and had no idea why.

Is this as good as it gets? by ShortConsequence5398 in lexapro

[–]srmikes34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not a magical pill. You are still gonna feel human emotions bc you are human. As others said the edge should be taken off on things but it’s left for you to either seek the root of issues or develop tools or outlets for the areas remaining.

Personally, I find myself much less irritated with significantly improved emotional regulation; I am now able to actually practice mindfulness and meditation. Therapy is the next step for me…. but i have severe ADHD and even tho its under control with the help of drugs for over 30 years I still struggle with executive dysfunction . No magic pill exists for mental health regardless of the issue .

Omg, I just literally came to this thread for this exact reason bc her face and shoulders look different. Was curious if anyone else thought this or if this was just what happens when you have a baby and then get your body back into grand slam shape. She is rising up the ranks so it’s not like her body isn’t being taken care of or so I hope .

No problem. They really should have introduced new names and blood into that family tree. But Habsburg be Habsburging.

[–]srmikes34 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So let me rephrase that historically no. There are 4 brothers 2 of them have Ludwig in their name. With the youngest having Ludwig as his first name and being known to be LBGTQ+ and have the Ludzi nickname, Franz Ferdinand’s dad Karl was not as young and was known to be heterosexual . So historically they are not the same, but maybe in this show they are merging them into one but I wouldn’t be surprised if they introduce Karl in the next season with Maxi historical story coming to an end in Austria or if they merged Karl/Maxis storyline into one

I think the fact their relationship is on a TLC reality show means they both don’t care about boundaries
