Prozac was good for me, it just made me sleepy, which is why I ended up on Celexa.

My doctor was a little concerned about Celexa since I had an allergic reaction to Lexapro, which is the metabolite of Celexa. I was willing to try it, but my doctor decided Prozac first. So I'm just SUPER hoping it works.

Prozac has worked really well for my anxiety.

ION, argh. The miniblinds on my bedroom window, which had been literally hanging on by a thread, just fell off entirely. And my apartment is still too much of a mess for me to call the landlord about it. Well, I've got some curtains that I'd been meaning to put up eventually -- guess this is the time to do it. I hope that the tension rod I got actually works. (And I've got to hang them slightly below the top of the window, because I can't reach the top, even when I'm standing on my bed.)

Steph I hope the Prozac works.

Lots if ~ma to you and your Mom epic

I had therapy with mom today.

It went ok. Basically she's worried about my future. I somehow committed to more testing with my therapist for things like executive function. It was kind of lile..it could help you now and also maybe if you have to file for disability.

Also mom wants to make up a roommate agreement.

Also, my mom is continuing her thing of sending me stuff when I post on Facebook that I'm stressed out. Which is a little weird, I guess, but still nice. I got a hundred gel pens (which I'm probably going to give to someone else, because I hate writing with gel pens), and something called the Vegetarian Shabbat Cookbook, which looks interesting. (Other times I've been stressed out or sick or in a lot of pain, she's sent me box sets of Buffy and Angel, an Iron Coin of the Faceless Man, a blue canary nightlight, and I think several other cookbooks. She feels guilty about not being able to make things better in my life, and I guess that sending me stuff makes her feel better about it.)

Connie, if someone s diabetes is gone at 30 carbohydrates a day -- it isn't gone just managed with an extreme diet. That is NOT a Cure - throw that one back at your doctor. he is an ass. If you could eat that way for x amount of time - and then never have to worry again - that is a cure

Prozac (well, the generic fluoxetine) has worked really well for me, Tep. Fingers crossed. Fwiw, on it I was tired initially, but that eased off.

I remember that Lexapro made me sleepy, but I just worked with that by taking it at bedtime. So if that happens with Prozac, maybe I can do the same thing.

I got the curtains put up. They look pretty good, actually -- I made them for my bedroom at my old apartment in Pennsylvania, but they fit the windows here just about perfectly. Maybe an inch or two too long, but since my bed is in front of one window, and a table is in front of the other, you don't really notice it.
