Do you take it continuously or only during your luteal phase? And what dosages do you take? Do you take anything else for PMDD?
I’m on 10 mg continuously which has helped my mental health a lot overall, but I’m still white knuckling through my luteal phase. I’m not sure whether to try increasing the dosage during that time, increasing the continuous dose, or adding another medication. My doc is not very experienced with PMDD so I’m trying to go in with suggestions in mind.
Thanks in advance :)
Are they stupid?
I know a few of the characters burst into song through the series but Yang’s “you wanna be me but you can’t be me” followed by Webber’s “that’s why I’m the chief” a few episodes later is absolutely delightful. Intern or chief of surgery, sometimes you just gotta make up a little song about how you’re hot shit.
Any other favorite parallel moments like this?
The scene where Kelly and Jonah are doing announcements together and have such natural chemistry is one of my favorites. I knew the writers were going to put him together with Amy and it was a great slow burn, but I still get a little sad that he and Kelly didn’t work out.
2.5 weeks on 150 ER XL - seems like hives/rashes are pretty common in this window. They are all over my body and itchy as hell. The Benadryl is helping with the itch but there are still raised red welts all over. No other physical symptoms.
Wondering if others who had this stayed on bupropion and found the effects went away, or you went off? Of course it’s a weekend and then my prescribing physician is going to be away during this coming week, so I will message them the pictures but probably won’t get immediate guidance. I really would like to just go off of it (I haven’t experienced much improvement. but wondering if it’s worth it to stick it out. Would appreciate hearing others’ experiences.
(sorry if any of this doesn’t make sense, the Benadryl is zonking me out)

Pretty much my entire luteal phase I am super sensitive to smells. My partner will open a bottle of wine or food or something and I can smell it from across the room. Additionally I encounter a variety of…interesting scents in my work (nursing homes) and they are absolutely overwhelming. Anyone else? Am I just a freak?
Alright y’all who’s our favorite mama bear?? (Didn’t include Ellis or Callie’s mom for obvious reasons)
Helen (Cristina)
Mama/Jane (Burke)
Robbie (Izzy)
Louise (George)
Carolyn (Derek)
Susan (Lexi)
Evelyn (Hunt)
(I don’t fw the later seasons but feel free to drop your later faves)
Louise is an absolute treasure and I will never get over what the writers did to the O’Malleys
It really felt like Sally saved Don’s life in this scene. He was in such a dark place at the beginning of S7, and the rupture with Sally was a source of so much of his pain and shame; seeing himself completely fall from grace in his daughter’s eyes. Sally demanded honesty from him when they were arguing, and even though she was still hurt, she chose to try to understand and forgive him.
This scene reminds me to let my dad know I love him more often. We never know how much it means or how much time we have.
Trying to understand his reactions in this episode. At first he seems to be playing good cop to Mona’s bad cop, humoring Margaret, and even enjoying aspects of the lifestyle. Something seems to shift for him when Margaret goes to hook up with one of the guys that night, and by morning he seems to be taking it way more seriously. Is he seeing his own reflection in Margaret’s abandonment of responsibility in chasing pleasure? Is he realizing his daughter is becoming one of the aimless hippie women that float in and out of his bedroom? What do others see in this?
It’s nitpicky but always bothers me that in season 2, Alex knows how interact with Ellis when she’s confused (telling her the physical exam is hospital policy, etc), but when he is on Derek’s clinical trial for an episode, this ease vanishes and Meredith is basically coaching him on how to meet dementia patients in the moment. I actually think Alex would have some instincts around dealing with someone having delusions because of his mom, so the first portrayal of this is more realistic to me upon rewatch.
Anyone else have little (or big) inconsistencies that bug them more than they should??
Personally I think he starts his very niche sci fi author career on the West Coast, but curious what others see in his future.
Every rewatch I find a new scene that breaks my heart.
