MDJunction to me

2steveb" In life we all have trials and tribulations to endure weather it be physical, mental or social. For me personally when i encountered MDJunction i was astounded. Since i joined MDJunction to me it has been a god send and a life saver. I have met and been able to converse freely with so many people in the same situation as myself, (that alone is a big help, to know your not alone) to be able to discuss and get good advice from a braud section of people. One of lifes hardest things is to discuss personal issues with friends/family and yet the mdj family is non judgmental and you will be made totally welcome to talk through any issue thats on your mind. There are forums for every known issue to mankind, to me MDJ.com has become my family extension, id be lost without these good people and the extremely good guide lines that group leaders help us all with to keep threads topical and friendly."

Hehe, nice. Yeah, I've been having a great laugh all night although I've been bored to tears sitting at this desk.

Wow, that kinda sucks. I've been kinda having a bit of the same issue myself. I just recently started on Celexa and last Monday, my dose got up to 20 mgs and a lot of the time I wind up sleeping roughly 12 hours off and on before I get up and get ready for work.

What is it with these meds that are supposed to help you stay awake, why do they put you to sleep till you get used to them. I don't understand why your body goes into overdrive when they are first introduced into your system and once you are used to them it is fine. Doesn't make sense.

I wish I knew, but I'm still new to this whole med thing. I just pray any time I'm given a new one to take or told to make a doseage increase that it does not affect me poorly or in a manner which requires hospitalization.

I've been on meds for the past 25 years and have only ended up hospitilized when I stopped Ativan cold turkey. So that's what I would worry about, make sure everything is under a dr's supervision and that you keep in close contact for every side effect you may have.

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply. Got a call that county was bringing in an uncooperative female. She got here with a spithood on, handcuffed, the works. She saw me and my coworkers and suddenly decided she wanted to be sweet little miss.....I think we've dealt with her before, she looked really familiar.....>.>
