Hi. I am now Panda II. Previously known as Panda. I'm going to do this program again from the beginning.The last time it was too confusing for me and I gave up.
Sometimes I find it very difficult to find things on this site. Then I get frustrated and give up. I'll try to persevere through my frustrations this time.
The reason I am Panda II is that I had to change my name to start over.
I've been taking Celexa 60 mg/day for quite a while. I've told my Dr. that I feel sluggish and foggy with it. He finally changed my meds a bit and I'm now on 150 Bupropian in the morning, and 40mg Celexa at night.
I've been on this combo now for about a week and feel a lot more alive. I've phoned people I haven't talked to in years.I'm doing things around the house I've long neglected.
One thing about Buproprian is that it's the same as Zyban the stop smoking medication.
Mom 3, Why did you stop.? Did you taper off? I'm on Celexa and thinks it makes me foggy,groggy. I'm now taking less Celexa 40 mg + wellbutrin. I feel more alive.
The problem I find with meds is the Dr.'s prescribe but don't really know what's going to happen.I asked my Doc to change from Celexa for ages and he wouldn't. Now I feel the difference of the wellbutrin and I'm pissed off that it wasn't changed before.
I've tried to deal with my depession many times before with lots of groups,doctors, and always quit .This time I'm sticking with this system with this particular therapist .
Very interesting Mom. I'm hesitant to quit because I'm trying to think that, "The Dr. knows best" I've tried doing it on my own and have never been successful .
So I'm digging in , trying to do my Activity Schedule the best I can and trying to understand the lessons.
Hi Mom, good to read your post.Bit by bit I'm getting to know people.,and starting to feel a bit more comfortable.Tomorrow I see my shrink and he'll assess the change in meds.Don't want to hijack your thread .Take care.
I realize that I'm in my very early days of This Program, however this morning I did 8 minutes of yoga stretching and about 1/2 hour riding my bike and breathing heavy.Before that for 8 months I did nothing
A year ago I did way more than that but got off the track.
This x-size could be change of meds but also starting to do something with the CBT.
I'm finding it difficult to put an evaluation on my moods in my activity schedule in Session 1. I also wonder how specific I need to be in order to effectively advance to Session 2.
My two mood choices are Depression and Anxiety/Fear. As I'm writing this I even find that I'm being anxious how well I'm presenting my thoughts.
My depression has been an ongoing always there like 40% . Shoot! I've lost my thought trend. I'll post and get back later.
I'm so glad that you're getting over your doldrums . As you said Oscar would not want you moping .I'm a cat lover and have five "Buddies" at the moment. I know how it feels when one moves to that perfect cat world beyond.
I still have cherished memory moments of those that have moved on.
