This is so sad for me to write because it was just last week that I wrote that I was doing amazingly well.
Well, now things have changed a little bit. I have become obsessed with this website that gives support to people in similar situations as me and I think it is triggering me… making me fall. I know I just shouldn’t visit the site but I’m wondering if the damage is done already. Or I’m wondering if I’m just having some medication issues (since I have just gone off one of my major ones) and I’m in denial that I really need that medication for my health.
I know I sound confused here because I am:(
Well anyway, hope everyone is enjoying their day!!!
uuum…..is this really the place to discuss your feelings, medication issues….maybe it would be wise to consult your PCP/Perscriber/Psychiatrist..
happiest-
Those are very serious and important questions.
If you are currently taking medication, I assume you have a MD with a degree in psychiatry perscribing them – that’s who you should be asking, especially about meds and doses.
Speak to him about your concern that this site is acting as a trigger. If it is, then abstaining from it is probably a good idea. Even if you have to stay away, folks here will keep you in mind and gladly welcome you back when you are IY”H up to returning.
You can talk, and we’ll listen. BUT there is a limit we can help. Don’t look to any one thing or person to “save” you, except Hashem. This even applies in marriage. Your spouse is not and cannot be your entire social outlet. You need your friends, work, hobbies, etc.
Happiest – I’m sorry you’re feeling this way. I doubt that coming to the cr is making it worse. Especially if this is where you get some support. You may have hit the nail on the head by saying that your meds might be the prob. you say you went off of one major one – please speak with your doctor about that. maybe u just weren’t quite ready to go off it. please take care of yourself and keep us posted. we do care here. HATZLACHA RABBA.
Rednails – IMHO – i think you may have been a bit harsh on her. she comes here for support. it’s all anonymous – we don’t know who she is. so she feels comfortable revealing this info here where we can be supportive. of course she needs to speak with her doctor. but i truly believe we can help boost her spirits here too.
hang in there!! HASHEM never gives a person a nisayon he/she cannot pass. HASHEM desperately wants that every single person succeed in life that’s why HE made a literally infinite investment in each person.
happiest
thank you for your concern and modesty
this thread is just fine, there is no issue
happiest,
If a particular website is an issue, you should get a filter to block it.
Of course, discuss your situation with your doctor.
Good luck!
there is no need for an apology
if you dont feel comfortable posting sensitive things here okay.
but there is nothing to apologize for and please feel free to post again
no one was offended by this thread in the least
red nails was just speaking in your best interest that you shouldnt rely soley on the CR
im not closing this so please post here some more
it’s very important to have someone to confide in who’s simply a friend and not a professional of some sort and not a parent or sibling, etc.
happiest-
A few things:
1) I’m glad this site isn’t the problematic one ?
2) Stop apologizing! There is nothing wrong with anything you posted here.
3) Please make an appointment to see the doctor, sooner rather than later. A change in meds or dose level followed by this type of problem needs to be addressed.
4) We hope you snap back soon – refua shelaima.
Just to clarify again- I am not stupid enough to rely on the cr (although I love you all:) for advice in a situation like this
of course not!
i know that
(and everyone else should too)
happiest – like the mod said – keep posting here. nothing wrong with what you posted and there’s no need for you to apologize. it’s great that you feel comfortable here. those who don’t think you should be posting this kind of stuff don’t have to read it.
Happiest, I was so saddened to read this thread but I’m glad to hear you feel better now!
See? The CR makes us all feel good!
Please continue to keep us updated. We are all friends although we’re all anonymous.
Hatzlacha!
happiest – glad ur feeling better! i hope it continues to get better!
soliek i cant believe im the only one whos gonna allude to the river in egypt…
I’m glad you feel better.
Awesome news!!;)
HAPPIEST; We are all routing for you!! keep up the great work!
happiest- I would love to know who you use as a psychologist. I know someone who could use someone like that- who believes in them and wont rush to say “you have a huge issue!”
mods- can you send me her info? not her email address (i dont want to know who she is or her to know me) but i would like the name of her therapist.
mods- yes or no?
I’ve noticed that whenever someone comes off a major mood-altering medicine there can be an increase of the negative mood that was being treated for about 2 weeks.
adorable – There is a Frum org. called Relief, that actually recommends therapists tailored to your need. A therapist good for one person is not necessarily the best for s/o else.
Health- i know some vey bad pairs that they made….
is there a reason why you are all ignoring us? so not ur type- ur usually so helpful
how are you doing happiest? thinking about you.
happiest: i also know of s/o who can use a good warm and caring psychologist. She has been doing some research, but really wants s/o known to have a good track record and s/o who can help (and someone frum). I guess this was really Hashgacha pratis that i read ur post. Hope you are doing well. I was very impressed to see the way you were so eager to help another person. Keep on growing (thats the grw part of my name-grow 613 -Mitzvos!
Mods:( i am aware that I am making the same request as adorable and so im asking for the 2 of us) and if only if happiest is okay w/it if the mods can plz somehow send us the name of this psychologist w/o giving out email adresses or any personal info it would be greatly appreciated!.
the mods dont want to. they are not being very accommodating. i guess they have a reason but they are in charge so we have to just follow their rules.
