Hello wannabbetter, Things are about the same. Thanks for praying for me. Your on my list too. I am drinking more water for my kidneys. My left fingertips are numb so the doctor had me get x rays of...
Thanks Shynsassy&Denim, I will drink a lot of water and talk to my doctor. Next bloodtest I will post it and tell you guys how it was. I never heard of atenonal. I wish him well too....
Denim, I have never had numbing before. It is only on my left hand. Does your husband get it on both hands or just one if you don't mind asking him. Last night I went to the emergency room because...
Denim, Has it been working for your husband or is it still too early to tell. I like it better than the effexor but I still am stressed. The ativan helps me more with sleep. Does he sleep more now?...
Dawn, Hello. Thanks for all the nice things you said. I am praying more now than I have been but I need to step it up more and be more consistant. I think my wife is just sick of dealing with my...
Dawn, No you didn't upset me at all. I kept it short because I was going to lay down and try to sleep a little more. I will ask her to do something tomorow when she gets out of work. I asked her when...
Dawn, Thanks for the encouragement. I'll keep this short. She won't go on a picnic with me. She is distancing herself from me. She is set on moving out to get her space. She hasn't filed for divorce...
I found this and will keep saying it. “Heavenly Father, I believe Your Son Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sin and was raised from the dead. I confess and ask forgiveness for my sins. Thank You...
wannabbetter, Things are so so. Thanks for praying. I ask her about the vows and God. And she just says she can't be what I want her to be. I have a few marriage books that are good but she won't...
Dawn, Hi, How are you? You never had a greek hot dog? Oh, they are good. It's a hotdog with onions and mustard covered in greek sauce. I haven't been to Red Lobster in years either. All the things...
Dawn, We had rain here and just a little thunder and lightning. It rained all day yesterday. If we get bad storms in the summer sometimes there is water spouts on the lake. I never seen one up close...
Hi Dawn, I feel a little better now. Like you could be worse could be better. We both have to hang in there. Yes the Millcreek Mall is here. Millcreek is weird it like stretches around Erie on one...
Hi wannabbetter, I'm glad your appointment went well. I bet you are relieved. Hope your other appointment goes just as well. Thanks again for praying for the wife to change her heart. I never prayed...
Denim, Sorry your husband has anxiety. I feel for him. How long has he been this way? I feel I couldn't get by anymore without the ativan. I am on blood pressure medication also. I don't feel the...
wannabetter, Today was a little better. We went to counseling twice and she was made I dragged her there. Her mind seems made up. When I can afford to I go alone because I like it. Making calls is...
lil miss, Try to get your life back together. If they see a positive change maybe you can get her back. Use this time to work on yourself. Do you take medications? I'm on lexapro because of my...
Dawn, I'm glad to hear from you. I deleted half my post because all I was doing was griping. I was getting the error too. I was about to try to go back to sleep but saw you replied. Yes I grew up in...
wannabbetter, Sorry to hear about your new situation. I don't know anything about benign limp nodes. I hope the tests go well and they take good care of you whatever they have to do. Hopefully the...
miwoman, Thanks for replying. I'm glad your sleep eventually got better. I hope mine does too but for now I need medication. I have tried everything. Sometimes I go to work on no sleep. Ensomnia is...
Thanks debaser. I will look it up. How would you compare it to lexapro?...
Aussieangel, I really can't find anything on advanza. I will keep trying....
Dawn, The things you've said help because it tells me I'm not the only one like this. Today is really a bad one too. I was feeling better too for a while. Last night I had to take 4 ativan. I left...
georgeglass512 Did you gain any weight at all from lexapro?...
pinkbutterfly I hope the effexor xr works for you. I don't feel it did anything for me but you know everybody is different. Were you on 10 or 20 mg of lexapro? I'm on 20 but I just started. I'd like...
Aussieangel, I will read about advanza. I never heard of it. Thanks. JD3792, I just go to a regular doctor but my boss said the same thing. I will probably have to go to a psychiatrist. Do you take...
Dawn, I love talking to you I just want to make sure I'm not bugging you. Write back as much as you want I like it. Just don't feel you have to. I just feel that I bug people because my wife says I...
Hi Dawn, Sorry it is a bad day for you. It is a really bad one for me also. I don't want a divorce at all but she wants to bail out. She might not even wait until the tennant problem is fixed....
I think the lexapro is definatly better than the effexor for me. The ativan help me sleep but the relationship situation is taking it's toll on me and I am not looking foreward to getting a second...
Dawn, I'm glad to hear your feeling better. Your bloodpressure is very good. I take meds for mine. It's high. Your gardens sound nice. I like sunflower plants and watermellons. If I had a garden they...
Dawn, I'm sorry you had a bad day. I know what it's like and it makes me feel bad to hear that. If you ever want to email me feel free to. Do you know what causes you to be dizzy? How is your blood...
Geebs thanks I will. stronglady4me I can't believe I thought it was a spinal tap. How embarrassing....
Stronglady4me, This Braverman test. How did they administer it? It wasn't a spinal tap or anything was it? And I was wondering if Lexapro helped you gain weight back? I don't know if I would get the...
My gosh Dawn are you my long lost twin. I told my wife the same thing. What about for better or worse? She's sick of it and said she don't want to be my wife. I told her if it was her I would be...
Thank's for responding. I took just one pill so far and so far it seems like I have more of an appatite. I lost weight from stress and I hope to gaon it back. And feel better. So I was wondering if...
wannabbbetter, How have you been doing?...
I am hoping it helps me sleep, with anxiety and depression. And I also hope it helps me gain weight back....
Thanks Shy...
Went to the doctor today. He gave me some ativan and switched me from effexor to lexapro. I hope it works better. In time I will know....
Has anyone been on Lexapro? I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it has done for them? The doctor has switched me today from effexor xl to Lexapro. The effexor didn't help me at all....
I forgot to add 2 things. My Dad had trouble sleeping when I was younger. He would be mad if I woke him up and start pacing. I'll have to ask him if he still does. And at work when I take my breaks I...
Dawn, In highschool and as a kid it took me an hour or so to fall asleep. In my 20s maybe a little more. In my 30s and I'm 37 it got worse and then I started waking during the night like you. The...
Dawn, Your thread is similar to mine. It is tough isn't it? At least I'm not alone because someone who never has been this way can not understand. Before about in 1997 my friend was having anxiety...
Thanks Dawn, I will look into all the information you gave me and I will read your thread. I work 3 to 11 now. Like today I called off work because no sleep and anxiety. I slept abot 2 hours the last...
Junebug, The tv really helped huh? I sleep with a fan by my head all year long. Even in the winter. I can't sleep without it. It is not enough now though. I will start leaving the tv on in my bedroom...
I am mixed up, stressed,have anxiety,and can't sleep. Lately not as depressed though. Once in a while I will have some good days and then there are bad ones. I have been married since 1991 and it...
Froggy, I read sci fi, historical, and Conan novels and they are fantacy. How are you feeling lately? I wonder how much worse we all would be feeling if the internet was never invented. I never knew...
Froggy, What is the book Eragon about? Actually my sloan is from star trek deep space nine. He is an opperative from a secret agency called sectiom 31....
froggy, It get's better. I am just starting to feel better. I am on effexor xl like 2 months now but am not sure if it helps. I am starting to feel better though. Hang in there. It won't always be...
Lil angel, I'm no expert but from my own situation I can compare a little to yours. I have ensomnia. Sometimes I go to work on an hour sleep. I missed my second doctors appointment because I couldn't...
Thank you Lyn. It's good to know....
