My new medicine isn't doing anything. I also hate how my 20's are going to end up wasted. :(


how long have you been on it?


Since last Wednesday but I did miss a dose two days ago.

antidepressants take 4-6 weeks to work. is that what it is? or what else?


It is but it's for dopamine rather than serotonin.


this is about wellbutrin from NAMI. While depressed mood and lack of interest in activities may need up to 4-6 weeks to improve, disturbances in sleep, energy, or appetite may show some improvement within the first 1-2 weeks. Improvement in these physical symptoms can be an important early signal that the medication is working.


I will say I haven't snacked much being on it.

-4. I'm so tired of waiting. Waiting to hear back from jobs, waiting to be able to start my job, and now waiting to find out what's going on with me health-wise. I'd much rather just get stuff over with even if the results aren't pleasant. Speaking of, it's odd that I'm not really feeling much about getting an MRI on Monday, even knowing what they're going to be looking for - I'm oddly unperturbed by the thought that I might have MS. I just want to get it done with and know the results, one way or another.

there are helpful treatments for MS. it would be nice to get treatment started if that's what it turns out you have. waiting is hard.

No you aren't, you're a kind, good-hearted person, and you're trying to do the best you can. Big dragon hugs.

Yeah, that's a large part of the reason I'm actually being honest about my symptoms and not trying to downplay them and just deal on my own like I have a tendency to do. And if it's not that, it sounds like it's probably because of my medications, which can be dealt with. But if somehow through some sort of balance, my having MS would mean that someone else doesn't have to, I'm perfectly fine with that. It's probably a lot less of a big deal to me since I already don't know if I'll ever be able to support myself or anything - doesn't really seem like MS would prevent me from doing anything with my life that I'm not already quite possibly prevented from.

-2. Still really tired of waiting, but I'm looking forward to hopefully helping to get our garden into something resembling a plantable state this weekend (if I'm not too dizzy/tired).
