What is that exactly ? I think if no good ins. They not gonna do much for u as if u had good ins

That's great Dirt....give the man something else to dwell on .

Dave ,it took you years to get in the shape you're in, it's going to take some time for them to find the right combination on the meds. Time takes time, it sucks but that's the bottom line. My wife has been through this with her meds, but I think they have it figured out now, thank God. Hang in there Dave, whatever you do don't give up, it can and will get better for you.

I do it too, but worse. I spent 89 days in a cell, 23 hours a day, last 9 of them days the toilet didn't work...
Had to fight to survive a few times, (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) near took a man's life out on that yard, because I defended myself from the wrong color person...
Paranoid is a nice way to describe me, I smoke homegrown and spend most my time innawoods which helps.

Check out other mental health place an went Aldi grocery after. Done Walmart expensive grocery's years, save a lil Aldi . Other place much bigger. An bldgs in town . Probly 50 times size of small place I been go to in dentist docter bldg. Walk in unless totally unemployed with no income or lil income is $250. They have innmates brought in there or mental health workers . Bring someone in. I guess it more for them the free stuff. So supposed get call sometime about paperwork for funding an if worth go to new place as cost. No ins. Is bad. Never had a $250 office vist today . The place at now. Wait forever with I say next 0 help so far. No return pH calls from pscho doc nurse or sure if we'll be about meds. I complain of be sick. So probly tick them off an pscho told nurse tell me quit pills an let suffer for weeks until appt end oct . Have appt therapist tomma . Schedule for hr. I think like last appt. Less 15 min. Very Lil help. This whole process is to slow. U have pay there but more easier on payments. For sure feel crappy an wierd in morning with not lot interest or energy till later day some .

Now they call an say retake pills again an see happen. I try for 2 days. Don't like wierd feel I'm morning undescribable. Lexpram or escitolpram 10 mg. Generic brand, anyone heard them ? They all have side effects

Stay tough Coonman. They'll find the right combo of meds and you'll be feeling better sooner than you think is possible right now. Stay with the therapy too because they'll give you some tips that will give you some relief while you're waiting for the meds to kick in. Keep us posted!

I will pray for you this even Dave. God can help us so much. Do you have a church that you attend? If not maybe you should consider asking friends if they recommend one.
I agree with KeV56 about giving you doctor recommended medicines some time.
Hang in there my friend. Lots of people support you.
God bless you.

It's gonna take time Dave. Unfortunately there is no magic pill they can give you today and make you feel normal tomorrow. Just try to stick with the pills even if they make you feel a little strange for a couple of weeks. However, if they make you want to hurt yourself or someone else let your doctor know right away, otherwise, just give it some time. I know you're impatient, but you've been dealing with this problem already for years now, what's a few more weeks or months? One thing for sure is if you don't take the pills and go to your therapist sessions you're never going to get better.

A lot of people diagnosing the coonman with mental illness up in here . Or at least , wishing it upon him . Maybe a bunch of wack jobs here looking for some more company ?



The coonman may just need a physical examination , dietary changes , and some guidance from a church counselor .


Don't take the mind altering drugs if you feel sick , Dave

That’s the problem he has admitted to feeling bad with how he is acting, some times medication will make you different until you become adjusted to it, my blood pressure medication did it to me the first time and now that I’ve been having problems and been put on more it’s been tough adjusting to the lower blood pressure but long term it’s better.

Cannot describe the wierd feelings in morning . Plus thoughts pop in head ..been do nite job ok but morning job gone this week an very hard come back Monday. I don't know why but much harder an stricter but it really bothers me bad flareup bad . Mornings are not good. I need the money an been there go on 6 yrs as temp. Others start out a buck hr more me probly cause I pt. Very boring an don't help stay home with very Lil do . No energy morning . Actually go decide over wkend if take leave absence from morning job as bother me so much an flareup an look something easier with less hrs. I contact my superviser at nite job an see if another pt clean job close in town or bit far from where just got off work at work more byself an maybe not hard work for . I have talk therapist tomorrow an see. I just can't get over an go on an on. Here . How absolutely terrible this mental torture is unless u had it. U don't know. There is very Lil that is good. Ur memory of anything lately well hurt of times

That work out nite job an can go to nite job not real far away after done it .

Dave, we are all pulling for you.

Awhile back you were asking about trapping books. If it's all right with you, PM me your address and I'll send you some I have.

Dave..it takes time. Take the meds as prescribed. They can make you feel worse at first, especially in the morning..you can feel more anxious.. Mental health is NO different than any other health issue. Your brain is an organ just like your heart, lungs etc. Nobody ever says don't take your meds for heart disease or diabetes etc. Follow your doctors advice and not some clown on Tman. Including me. I can just give you my own experiences. I hated the idea of taking meds..still do, but I surrendered that idea, and by that I mean I let go of trying to control everything, and I take the meds. They work..let them. You may have to try a few. I denied I needed help for years. Everyone needs help at some point in their life for something. Find a doc you can trust and can communicate with..it may take you a few..but find one..you're far from alone. It's not easy, but it's worth it. Reach out if you need to...I'm not that far away.

Hey Dave I have zero energy in the morning too. That's not that uncommon. But if your doc finds a medicine that gives you energy all day let me know, as I'm tired of only being mildly energetic 2-4 hours a day.

Ya, see more signs of blood a lil today that was talk about for physical trouble with no pain
. Other weak in morning with 0 energy. Compared past . Sleep 4 hrs, wake up an no sleep . Gonna ca docter Monday an tell them more signs blood. Hope nothing serious internally

Anyone with these kind problems, ever had ringing kinda noise or wierd noise in ears. Kinda like summer bugs? But 24/7 for months or not sure how long ? Even when quiet, I thought normal an didn't mention an had ears check md an other like throat an nose but never mention at pscho doc. There not open tomorrow. Therapist don't know I ask other day. It is louder a lol an it is make me go crazy the noise or maybe cause it . Now read online that anxiety disorders cause constant or lot noise in ears, it is 24/7. I like go to bigger place for this. Not sure if better or not. I think Iowa is behind in this kinda medical field
