I started Amitriptyline almost 2 months ago. It has helped my FD significantly but causes severe constipation. I’ve been battling constipation for 10 years so I know a lot of tricks but never this bad. Anybody else battle this and what tricks have they tried?. I know I can’t come off the Amitriptyline, it’s been the only thing that works.
My 17yr old son is out of control. We sent him away to boarding school for a year, put us in lifetime debt doing so. He came home a different kid. Less than a year later, he is back to his old self. Lying, sneaking out at night, drinking, vaping, girls. He finally got his license. Less than a month, he has already wrecked the car. As soon as we take away phone, keys whatever. He buys a new phone. Breaks all the rules, doesn’t care. He has 1 year of High school left. I honestly don’t know that he’s going to make it through. He refuses to do anything unless he has a phone and car keys. I can’t live another year like this until he turns 18. We are good parents! We provide him with his needs. I don’t understand but he’s ruining our family. Help!! Any advise??
I have been dealing with FD for almost 4 years. Been on and off lots of meds. My main issue is nausea. Always nauseous. And depended on what med I’m on then I get stomach pain, acid reflux, immediate fullness etc. I can’t win with anything I try. Now I’m trying busbirone. I’ve read it takes weeks to kick it. I’m on week 5 and no relief so far. Anybody tried or had luck with this one and what dose?
My therapist told me she wanted to move my sessions to monthly. I’m not ready to move monthly. She knows about my fears of rejection and abandonment by past therapists. My radar is screaming rejection. I have one more year to get through until my son finishes High school. It’s going to be a rough year. I need her this next year. Part of me says forget it, I don’t want to be somewhere I’m not wanted. I don’t want to be a burden. I don’t know what to do?
