can you suggest some herbs for anxiety that work instantly?

the idea that you have to wait a month to feel the effects of a supplement is boring.

i believe fast acting supplements are better , because waiting a month doesn't guarantee that a supplement will work so you will waste time on useless supplements.

i have 2 options either increasing protein content or trying fibro meds which one is better?

i suspect I have fibro because all my blood tests are okay.

i suffer from unexplained fatigue and physical pain in muscles also brain fogg.

every month i try something new because feeling pain is driving me very crazy I can't stop thinking about anything but pain.

anyways i get 3 normal meals high in carbs medium amount of protein and small amount of fats .

i consume alcohol to reduce pain I ha no choice its wrong but i don't drink too much.

either i increase my protein content and wait for the effects and see whether it helps or no.

or giving gabapentin and cymbatla another try and see whether my pain will be reduced or no

but i will try these drugs with therapeutic dose for cymbatla 60 mg at least and for gabapentin more than 1800 daily.

this is my feeling of pain.

disclaimer : I'm discussing my personal experience I'm not claiming its the ultimate truth.

I'm not diagnosed with fibromyalgia but i suspect i have it because I have many symptoms of fibromyalgia also all blood tests are okay also my symptoms are not so severe to the point that i need wheelchair.

i feel muscle pain like aching when i exert any effort on my muscles lets say feeling heaviness and aching in my leg muscles after walking for long time like 30 mins straight.

also I read there are many types of pain like burn sensation , muscle aching or cramping also muscle soreness.

to rule out any other illnesses I need to exclude sleep apnea because i believe that I don't have symptoms of it because i get refreshing sleep as long as i use a strong sleep med like tricyclics or antipsychotics.

what do you think about mirogablin for fibromyalgia?

in my country many posts claim that fibromyalgia symptoms can be managed when you use mirogablin (a sub type of gabapentinoids class).

they try to promote to it as the best drug to manage symptoms of fibromyalgia despite reading about this drug and feel finding no scientific evidence for it.

how long does fibro flare last?

the last three days my health was better fatigue was less , pain was less , sleeping was easy with med as usual (didn't need to increase dose) , also i walked 1 hr everyday because my health was better i decided i will workout a little bit , i got some muscle aches but my mind Focuses on its pain.

i believe that my body will start getting bad like it used to be and these last 3 days will go for a long time.

i get some relief from drinking small shots of alcohol (i have been doing this for many years I won't get addicted because i do it when i get this pain).

what are your advices to me???!

disclaimer: not diagnosed with fibro i suspect I have it because all blood tests are okay but fatigue and brain fogg and inability to do simple tasks were reduced.

brain fogg is a medical crisis !!!!

i believe that brain fogg should be taken seriously it's dangerous for the economy because it affect the productivity of human beings , besides brain fogg is very common not only in this subreddit.

also doctors should stop gaslighting us and telling us its in your head ,instead give us some tests to make sure no other invisible disease is causing us to feel that way.

i believe my cognitive abilities become better at the first few days of starting medication.

i have been in a cycle of taking antidepressants and tapering them and return back for 5 years , i noticed something when i start slowly from low doses to therapeutic dose i believe that my mood and my cognitive abilities become better after taking zoloft.

but unfortunately this feeling stops and fades away even after increasing dose unless you stop antidepressants for long period then return taking them.

does anybody get the same feeling !!!!?????

does fibromyalgia make masturbation harder?

I'm not officially diagnosed with fibromyalgia , but i have many symptoms like extreme fatigue and heaviness in limbs despite the fact that all blood tests are okay.

i noticed that everything requires effort showering or shaving beard or cleaning room

i had these symptoms for many years nothing can be done, but recently i noticed that masturbation requires a huge effort first you need stimulation and erection and ejaculation but this weird kind of pain that distracts me from even enjoying my nasty habit 😄.

what would think about it???!

some supplements work !!!!

i was curious about supplements and whether they are a scam or not , i discovered that it's not black and white.

some of the supplements that are helpful for brain and can increase attention something like omega 3 , vitamin b , vitamin d , magnesium.

but supplementation can't replace the treatment of medical conditions that lead to brain fogg.

should i look for another drug?

i used as an off label drug for sleep I don't use big doses like 50mg and 25 mg , i divide my 25 mg tablet to 2 parts and take one part maximum it works great but makes me sleepy and very tired .

should i add something with clozapine to stop these nasty side effects or no because I can't tolerate these side effects and can't tolerate less sleep.

why do theists use first cause argument despite it doesn't prove god?

I have a knowledge about famous arguments for god , one of the arguments that astonish me argument from motion and first cause.

theists claim that universe can't be eternal because it keeps changing but my question is why is it wrong to claim that universe in this form has a beginning and was once a very small point and this point was the beginning and the cause of the expansion is this very small hot dense state nothing preceded it so no need for god.

why no one here speaks about fibromyalgia?

one of the most famous symptoms of fibromyalgia is brain fogg especially if your blood tests are okay.

I don't see why people on this sub don't give fibromyalgia an attention.

fibromyalgia doesn't show by blood tests and hard to diagnose and can be a result of chronic stress and depression.
