I'm out of hospital and i'm feeling bit brighter! 😊

Yes im sorry ive been on a downer recently

It helped speaking to people, human beings, in hospital. I think i need to socialise more!

Hope everyone is ok…

@Joker the 2nd place they sent me to for respite only had recliners. Boy they are uncomfortable

I’m tired but hopeful. Ive home treatment coming tomorrow to see how things are going. Im going to go to a little coffee morning group on Thursdays all being well. Family are visiting. Hospitals arent the place to get respite any longer here in uk, there exhausting

Sounds good you feel better now - :slightly_smiling_face:

I am glad they were able to help. It sounds like raising your antidepressent dose is a good idea.

Yes definitely upping my ad is a start. I’m just really puzzled what to do about the antipsychotic?

its a good med clopixol because helps with thoughts

But it causes me severe emotional numbness

And unable to lose any weight because of the clopixol, tried everything and barely lost any weight

If i tried the med your on Latuda/Lurasidone @Vinegar i might get some relief. Any side effects for you?

My nurse asked how i feel about ECT but i dont know?

Its all trial and error isnt it

I like lurasidone. The only side effect I get from it is extreme tiredness about 2 hours after taking it. I usually take a short mid morning nap since my pdoc wants me to take it with breakfast. I also take it in the evening and it knocks me out at bedtime, which I like. It also caused a 20 pound weight gain but I am currently losing it through diet and exercise.
