I am having trouble figuring out how to reply to people here. Is there a 'how to' to this site I can read? My cognitive is offline most of the time so if something is not in front of my face I will miss it.

SERTRALINE 3 week taper | At least 19 different drugs in a 30 year period

Are you using desktop or mobile? Desktop: at the bottom of the thread / below the last message. There will be a msg area and you can us the "@" symbol to bring up specific users. Mobile: bottom of screen just above keyboard, tap the msg area to expand it. Hope this helps, takes a bit of getting used to.

I have a "write a reply" at the bottom. I assume that works ok ?

Can you post a photo ? I wanted to show you my new baby. She is 6 weeks old. Her name is Penny. She is a dalmatian rat. White with black spots. She is so cute I thought it might make someone happy to see her little face

You can also highlight the portion of someone's post you want to reply to and then click on the Quote and Reply button. It will put that selected portion into a new Reply box. This post is an example of that. Hope this helps!

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 16.64 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Synthroid - 25 mcg

Thanks @Catina just tested this on Mobile. It would definitely be easier on desktop with a mouse but I got it to work 🤓

Looks like you can. Seems easier on non-mobile device, I just took a screenshot and you click the button on the right side of icons to "Add Image"
