    Why do I keep doing this?

    I'm not talking about drinking, although I could ask that too, but I kinda understand the why and what fors.....but why do I keep.....forgetting to take my anti-d pills.

    Every time I forget for a few days, my ass drags, I dream weird dreams, and I am generally not myself.

    I got to work today and said, "I feel off, what's the matter", to myself. Self says "You damn idiot, you haven't taken your anti'ds again for the past few days, DUH!!!""

    Damn self, anyway. I think part is somewhat a rebellion. These pills don't work well....I know, drinking and taking pills are bound to not work so well, but dang IT! I've had pills that did work better.

    I have tried to go to doc, but I don't want to be lectured again about my drinking. So instead I keep stealing Joe's pills (on the same stuff) but his is on the other side of the bed and I don't think of it. And HE NEEDS IT MORE THAN ME. He gets really brooding, drinks more and kinda gets short with me.

    I even have a gf that nags me about it. She was out yesterday. Sigh, I need a keeper......any volunteers?

    Okay pity party over.

    Hart,

    Consider me your own personal nag!!!

    I am also on anti-depressants and it is very important that you take them, especially if you are drinking. Suck it up and go to the doctor and get your refill.

          O.K., they may not work as well as they could when combined with alcohol, but if you don`t take them regularly, they ain`t gonna work at all, so look after yourself and make a vow to take them without fail.

            I have mine in my purse so if I miss any.... which I tend to do, I can always reach in and take one.

            Go and get yours refilled! Superly important!

              Well I just called my doctor's office. They berated me for missing last apptmt. Okay, I'm usually reliable honest, but I HATE being lectured, I feel even younger than I usually do, and that's almost thumb sucking age at that.....when it comes to not doing what I'm SUPPOSE TO.

              She tried to get me in to get samples again. NO!!! That's just an excuse to put me on the torture rack, I'm no fool.:no: So I pleaded with her, and she called in my rx to my drug store. So I may even bow out early to pick it up.

              ONly have to make it thru today with hot flashes and dizziness, damn withdrawal symptoms from abruptly stopping Effexor. Yesterday I just had allergies, those were the days....LOL

              Thanx all my friends (almost wrote fiends..LOL) for your support.:thanks:

                I found putting my meds near my puter works great for me. I'm on here so darn much I see the bottles all the time and remember to take my meds!

                Glad you got the script Hart!

                  Effexor is bruuuuuuuuuutal to withdrawal from. After missing two doses I was having these horrible electric shocks in my head.

                  So glad you are going to get your Rx.

                    Hi Hart,

                    I can be your keeper (notice my user name).:yougo: Oops, just remembered that sometimes I get a little strange too. Now ...... who's going to keep me? LOL

                    Hang in there, Hart.

                      Why do I keep doing this?

                      I keep a spare set in my briefcase. I don't want to drive an hour back home, and if I skip, I batshit in a hury :flush:

                      I also see a night and day difference when I'maf. My meds seem to get REALLY hampered by the presence of AL.

                      Did you doc prescribe the rapid withdrawl from your other med. Sounds rougher than it needs to be.

                      Hang in there!!!

                        AFM - Yea Effexor was a bitch to come off of. I forgot to take it 3 days in a row and started going through withdrawls, but I figured I was going to come off it anyway, so I just dealt with it for a few days.

                          No doc did not say stop taking, I just forgot to...but I'm going to bring a supply in my purse. Yes the withdrawal from stopping Effexor is the worst I've ever had from withdrawing........MAN, wonder if that's what acid is like? LOL

                            Hi Hart,

                            When you miss taking the drug for a few days, you start to have withdrawl symptons and that is why you are dragging and having weird dreams. Drugs really need to be taken as prescribed, and for good reasons. Put it in the bathroom where you brush your teeth everday and you should'nt forget.

                            Please take care and be safe.
