Si, what Teppy said—I used to be able to have 2-3 drinks and not be too fussed, over a couple hours. Now, three drinks over a couple hours and I’m wasted and hungover.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Heh. I can never manage more than two. I get messy at 3, and only got to four once in my life. I am a lightweight.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I started the Wellbutrin just now. Question the literature said no alcohol with Wellbutrin. I'm not drinking right now because I'm on a ton of tylenol, but eventually would one cocktail at night be that big of a deal?
Especially as you are not drinking at first with the Tylenol, you can figure both Wellbutrin out in terms of side effects and what different you feel slowly add some booze once you're off the Tylenol. Your limit and also how you feel the next day might change but I don't think a glass of will hurt anything.

Thanks, Cass. I'm not having any side effects so far from the Wellbutrin, which honestly is freaking me out a little. I've always had terrible side effects when starting a new AD. Maybe because I'm already on the zoloft?

I don't think I ever tried that combo. But I've never had an AD work so I I depend on getting enough sleep. Not that anyone wants to treat a woman for that up here.
But maybe you just get good effects. If anyone deserves it, it's you. There are med/people combos where things just work.

I think the only problem I had with Wellbutrin was dry mouth, which eventually went away.

move out and draw fire
FWIW, my shrink suggested and I got a DNA test, which indicated that I have one of the sequences that maps to depression and that responds to folic acid, so I'm now taking folic acid every day and it really does seem to help (and isn't an AD).
The DNA test was expensive, though.

I already take a ton of folic acid because of Spina Bifida.

Huh, Volans, that is interesting.
sj, continued wishes for relief.

Pre-natal levels of folic acid? That seems like an easy thing to try.
