Never again lol

I can't do tms ever again. I get overwhelmed with anxiety about having to be there 5 days a week, feel like "a chicken running around without a head as they" it's to much running around when I got that everyday and have 1 or two other appointments same day for something along with things to do. I don't drive so it's more overwhelming I rely on the insurance medical rides so I gotta arrange 5 round trips a week and they only let you do one trip or call due to call volume and you need 24 hours notice so sometimes I got to like make sure I don't forget on Monday to call for Tuesday and then call again the same day for Wednesday etc even if you schedule it it's not an exact time they have like a 30 minute window when they pick you up or take you. It's just a lot and I'm always so tired from being mentally drained from all this running around and rushing. It's just a for me. I'm not doing a second round ever after this one. For me if anything spravato would be way less stressful because it's only 2 days a week and then it's only one I don't care if I'm there longer. I rather go less times a week and be there 2 hours, I never drive myself to her from anyway so I don't care that I can't drive myself. This is to much lol

Tms start of week 4

Unfortunately I won't really know for sure if the TMS is working really because I have been saying it is but then I thought about something. I'm starting to think maybe it's not tms that's helping with the things that I've been saying it has. I think it's the fact that it forces me to get out of the house daily and in turn since I'm not isolating and and not staying home staying in pajamas all day without any motivation to get dressed leave the house or do tasks. Now that I'm in this routine I know I gotta get up I gotta get dressed and also because I got in the groove with this I've been making all the appointments that I've neglected like eye doctor dentist etc I don't know if that's cuz of the TMS I think it's just because of getting back in the pattern and then it's like always once I'm on a roll I do good. If you remain stagnant for too long like I did it gets harder and harder to get out of it. So unfortunately even if I'm saying it's working and even if I feel good when it's finished I can't even give the TMS credit cuz in the back of my mind I won't really know if it's that or this. But I guess now that I think about it when it's over in 4 Weeks and I don't have to leave everyday I'll see if it remains the same. I will know after a couple of weeks of it stopping so I guess that's how I'll find out.

Happy that IR 10 in stock 2x

Okay so basically I gave up on Adderall a long time ago I probably haven't been on the XR since November because I got tired of enough times getting it called in, waiting because the pharmacy would keep saying oh we'll get it Monday and then call Monday and then dysing oh will get it Wednesday. And then a few times it actually winded up being two weeks and then I was screwed. Basically I was waiting because I much rather have that than Vyvanse but I got sick of it and didn't bother anymore since then. I switched doctors and this office is much bigger they're much more helpful and quick. It would also be a pain in the past to try to have my doctor call it in and then call her if it's out of the stock so she could send Vyvanse instead. She offered to do that a lot of months. She would say do you want to try to see if they have Adderall I would say no. It was too hard to get a hold of her to change the prescription because it was a small office but I think I'm going to try to take the chance again. My pharmacy has had the 10 mg instant in stocks same day not even having to order it, for 2 months straight now. Apparently they switched to Teva it's Walgreens and my last prescription was Teva. This could be a fluke but I might as well try since they can just cancel it and give me Vyvanse if it fails.

Fluvoxamine

Hey. A long time ago I was taking the max for OCD intrusive thoughts not sure how or why I got off of it but I remember really worked for my obsessive thoughts and such. Recently I found out which I pretty much suspected for a while but I didn't want to argue that I was misdiagnosed with bipolar 2 when I actually have depression. So I'm starting again I'm on 50 mg. The doctor that prescribed it said it could help with OCD AND depression. But I never heard of it for depression because it's labeled as an OCD drug primarily not depression and I don't know anyone that takes it for depression. Does anybody here that is on it for depression too find that it works or no? I also have general anxiety does it work for this too?

Goes fast! End of week 3!

Hey so I'm excited and not at the same time but I will say I can see this will definitely work not sure how long but as far as progress I feel progress already so I can tell the results will be great after all 7 weeks are completed if I have this early improvement now! Better sleep I already noticed mid week 2 but by beginning of week 3 I also noticed a slight improvement in my anxiety. Meaning when I'm stressed out it's a tad bit less anxiety then I'd normally feel in the same situation and now at end of week 3 I notice more energy which is great! As much as I'm excited knowing it's working and result will be wonderful judged by how soon it's working now I'm very discouraged by many posts I saw about how short the results were and how soon it started to fade from initial. I have also seen many posts about long length but it does stink if you do 7 weeks of treatment and then say starts to fade in a month or be completely gone say 3 months for example. Im hoping for the best but that is very discouraging because honestly for 7 weeks of daily appointments and how much of a pain in the neck that is if it winds up fading that soon or lasting that little time I won't do it again. I would try spravato because for someone like me who has no kids and disabled so not working I have the time for the 2 hrs twice a week and then once a week. For some people with a different lifestyle these short appointments for months of time with it working be worth it for them but for me especially because I rely on medical transportation through insurance because I don't drive I would find it more annoying to come every day for 5 days and do a second round again after say 6 months. If it was a year sure if the results were good enough but if not I'm going to am first spravato which I heard is usually where people go if TMS don't work. Because at least it works right away and you know rather quickly if it's for you you know I'd rather have constant relief without it going away. Even if TMS does work like you're going to be feeling the symptoms again before you know if you have to do another round and then it's going to take 7 weeks again. So we'll see. I'm in the middle right now we will see at least I have a. even Outlook. Most posts are either negative or positive mine has both sides. Let me know what you guys think.

New here what ai app for therapy?

Hey I saw a post of someone saying they use a AI therapist but it was only for iPhone it was called copy mind I prefer one I don't have to pay for her but I guess if it was good enough I would do it or if there's a free trial. I've used the chat GTP and Google AI many times to search for answers but I've never used an AI therapist I thought that was interesting. The only one I ever used with the free version at least wasn't good, was called wasa

Psych quit things are complicated

Basically my psychiatrist quit last minute was supposed to leave much later. Day of last appointment was same day as her last day, the facility locked her out of system she couldn't prescribe, left for rest of day. They had covering Dr send half my scripts other ones weren't due yet which are including ADHD controlled substances. They got their act more together today and called me to setup appointment with a Dr from one of their facilities. The one who sent the scripts was fully booked and I have 8 days meds left so it's somebody. I'm really worried that this is gonna be an issue with pharmacy. Do you think they'll have to clear it up and do you think it will be fine? It's no fault of my own and it's all they can do I know they hire 2 new permanent Drs late this month so this will only be issue this time, next month be back to normal. Any idea how this situation will go? I have been on these meds for years with this pharmacy but I feel like regulations and system they will want clarification and it just feels so complicated to explain and I don't want a gap in my treatment. Anyone have any similar experience? I'm at walgreens

Psychiatrist quit anxiety 😔

It's giving me a lot of anxiety It's so important for me because I need ADHD meds for my emotional regulation as well you know like it controls my impulses and even my anger even. Some doctors like the one I had before this don't understand that there is withdrawal as well. It's only around 3 days but it really is hell you just don't wanna get out of bed and certainly can't get anything done which is horrible, it feels like that then it's back to the rebound of ADHD symptoms after. I do have extras I try to have that for that for the purpose of the pharmacy usually having to order it and takes a couple days but I don't have enough to really wait for an appointment that's after I need them as well. I wanna try to take less like maybe only take 15 mg of booster and not my main pill but I know medically that's not right as well and I shouldn't be doing that. I have pure OCD that isn't treated yet I'm starting in fluvoxamine soon but right now my obsessive thought patterns along with general anxiety is taking over. I know me. I'll try to get it out of my head but I know I'll be worrying to Monday, it's just how I am. It is a little better because I feel like my TMS treatment I been doing is making me worry a little less then usual. I'm a little worried too because when I see the appointment available times a lot of them are way later. This isn't fair basically my psych quit without notice. She told them she'll be leaving so they did start interviewing people but like basically her health took a turn for the worst. Just my luck I show up on the same day and same appointment of the day that she quits last minute and she gets locked out of her prescription privileges. She had to cancel all the patients for the day. It's so unfair because I literally just switched to have more local physician, this was only my 2nd time seeing her and this is my experience. I just don't know how their gonna work out an appointment with me for 2 weeks from now which is when I need my script when they have so many patients they need to move that need appointments too. And don't I have to go in person to get this bridge prescription from a new Dr by law? I mean they have other locations I am willing to travel further one time for this until they hire someone knew. Idk I just feel like crying. Unfortunately this is one of those situations where it's pure bad luck and then of course on top of it it had to Friday evening I find out they didn't send them. My old Dr assured me I'd get everything be no problem she'll tell the new Dr she had discussion with me and this is what happens. On top of that this is the script I'll be needing for my vacation on June 5th I'm going with 15 people and I gotta be on time for flights and ubers and everything else. I have to be at my best. The new Dr who never saw me did send all my other meds just not the Vyvanse and Adderall booster. Do you think their gonna be able to get me my meds in time? Ugh as you can tell I also have reassurance ocd too i just need it until Monday I guess.

My prescriptions not sent

Okay so unfortunately I had my 2nd appointment with my new psych today and I find out she's leaving the practice for good because of health, it was her last day and they had already locked her out of the system so she wasn't able to send my scripts but assured me that another doctor from the practice will send my scripts and she will tell them she already spoke to me about everything. I just saw they sent all my scripts beside my adhds meds Vyvanse 60 and Adderall 10 and I doubt that's a coincidence. I feel like it's because it's controlled substance? I don't know but I feel like Im gonna worry about this all weekend now. I go to the office Monday for my TMS but I will ask them about this. Anyone know what that could be about? I'm worried and I hope it will be resolved on Monday, not sure what's going on.
