Are you in therapy? If so, do you relate to your therapist? If not, can you get one?

I have no therapist but I once in a while talk with a clever and kind psychiatric nurse.

I’m feeling better today, went to the gym and the sun is shining here in Copenhagen.

I’m so glad. For the future, you might want to consider trying out some therapists. I’ve been through many. As soon as I don’t think they’re going to help me, I move on to the next. I’ve had to really good ones. I saw each for a few years. Worked on different issues with each one. Now, I’ve had one session with a new therapist to work on delusions and then ptsd. I really like her. I think I found another good one.

Thanks, yes perhaps it’s time to see a professional therapist. Glad it helped you, i have had mixed experiences with therapy, at worst it simply didn’t help, but i had some good help after my mother died when i was a teen.

I like your drawing @bluebutterfly !

Have you tried Wellbutrin? It’s my AD and am happy with it.

Thanks a lot @Jonathan2 . Wellbutrin is a very interesting drug, a dopamine agonist, and since I already take Isocarboxazid, a mao-inhibitor, which also is a dopamine agonist, wellbutrin should be avoided, unfortunately.

Back when Wellbutrin was introduce to the market, the company had a slogan: “Skinny, happy, horny pill” but it was so misleading and unethical that the company had to pay an enormous fine.

Im glad it helped you, and if i was not on a MAO-i i would try it.
