It’s time to for you to fight back and break free. It is more than possible for you to change your life around, to relax, to have fun, to laugh to be cool.

Day 69 - Its time to increase the dosage

Have'nt posted in a while, seems like things are just a little but better, but also little bit the same...
My doctor advised me to increase my dosage to 20 mg a day instead of 10 mg I'm taking so far.
I lost control of life again, at least this is what I feel.
I've been prosponing the dosage increasement for a while now...
but I guess it is time.



will keep you posted.
Cheers.

Day 24 - I Gained the power of keeping up with something?

Its been a while now that i'm working out, and I actually succeded to commite myself to it and do it everyday. amazing I could never do that before, I also notice I dare to say stuffs more freely, My communication skills are starting to go back the way they used to be. It seems easier on occaisons and sometimes hard as it always been...but in those special times when I do feel OK I communicate good. I still have no confidence in myself or my body, but I feel I just might change things to be like I want...

Day 20 - Do Not Panic!

Had few panic attacks today but nothing I could'nt handle,
I wonder when will this stuff actually start doing something for me! I mean besides the headaches ;)

Just a Reminder to us All....

Depression is more than "the blues". It is more than the normal every day ups and downs, it is a serious health problem that affects the whole person as well as people around them.

Alochol with Cipralex

Most of my friends know me as one who drinks here and there on occaisons etc', I know its not recommended to drink alochol while on cipralex, but at this time I prefer to keep the fact I'm taking cipralex to myself...so I had no choice and I had to check it out just in case I'll run into a situation like that in the future...



So I did, I drunk one glass of whisky and...I did fine, I was stoned abit but nothing I could'nt handle, I also checked this with my Doc,
She said as long as its in proportions there is no problem.
So there you go...
I'll bring more information about this soon...

Which Time Is The Best - To Take Cipralex?

Hello again,
I've noticed some of you wonder when is the best time to take it,
I guest It depends on you guys, I personally take it at night, couple of hours before I go to sleep, It works best for me.
And I suggest that you do the same for start, that way even if you'll have to deal with side effects, you'll be able to learn them before dealing them around other people.


Day 19 - Lets go people, Lets go!

Well, The feeling of "the drug presence" is kinda gone... at least for this day, I've notice my modjo is bit down, Seems like sex starting to intrest me less... but I've checked and double checked, I have no problems with errection and getting orgasms, I actually feel more in control of my body...
anyways, they say you need at least a month until you actually see results...but there are waves like always, I call them feelings waves,



and the gaps between feeling good, ok or bad is now changing...
I will post more about that one soon...take care.
