8th Effexor Update - Feeling Poor - Mar 6

"Sadly again a bad day. Slept bad, woke up with glued eyes and mad face. Was in the garden for a short time. Kratom did not really help today. I‘m struggling with doing Sport, doing it limited anyways. Feeling depressed and angry, but also pretty fatigued about this debilitatin..." — @STVE

I'm really sorry you're struggling with fatigue, depression, and anger. Be proud of yourself that you at least made some effort in your garden and with sport. Regarding adding additional substances, my own experience has been that I'm sensitive to just about anything, especially something that could affect my CNS. I've found it's best to keep things as clean and simple as possible. Otherwise, it's just giving my body something else it has to deal with. Regarding bridging onto Prozac, I know that this is an option and some people do have success with it, but sadly others don't. That's what I've seen anyway. The fact that you had some improvements recently actually shows you're heading in the right direction! This process can be so painfully slow at times, but any improvement is a good sign. I really hope you can find a knowledgable and supportive clinician that can help you during this process. We're here to support you anytime! ❤️

Thank you very much Catina. All this mess started with Prozac, i won‘t take it, i was 2 years anorgasmic on it and got, for the first time in my life, severely depressed while taking that medication. I‘m also very sensitive since coming down of the high dosages. I will find smth else. Complicated situation. Sadly i finally need some progress, my life stagnates since so many years and i honestly don‘t know how long my parents can still support me, should be a well grown man by now. I‘ll keep you all updated.

Of course STVE, we're here anytime. It does sound complicated, I'm sorry. Please do keep us updated on your life and how things are going.
