I've been dealing with family stress triggers (having to go NC with my Mom). I can't seem to deal with the fibro/emotional stress combo. I'm reading the books, listening to the podcasts, getting some exercise, I already take meds for fibro and bipolar and I'm not getting past this hurdle. Any advice?
My Mom continues to send cards with her usual notes on them (weather is good, I'm gardening, etc.) after going NC in early December. She doesn't mention the issues she caused, how I'm not speaking to her. I'd like to say I'm shocked but I'm not.
I've been on Viibryd for a few months. 10 mgs. (Tried to go up to 20, left me feeling a bit emotionally blunted). I cross tapered from Cymbalta to Viibryd. My anxiety is high.and I feel a bit down and can't shake either one. I'm wondering if it's still part of the Cymbalta withdrawal or if this med is not for me. Any input would be really appreciated. Feeling frustrated.
*** This group is awesome! Thank you all so much for the tips for my Daughter. I really appreciate them! 😊 ***
Any help would be awesome. My Daughter typically does carpentry but has switched to concrete (only thing available right now). Her hands are swelling really bad from something. She's wearing all of the protective gear available. Any ideas?
