Been a big year. Cut out a lot of booze and exercising heaps but real gains were in diet. Lost a ton of weight on Keto and feeling really good mentally. I’d already come down on my meds earlier this year…So zyprexa from 10 mgs down to lowest clinical dose of 7.5mgs and effexor from 300 mgs down to 150 mgs.
Saw my shrink today and new plan is to cut effexor down to 75mgs which I think is lowest clinical dose out here. Have the script but will pick it up tomorrow but won’t start till day later on the thursday as I’m up early and take morning meds around 5am.
Been a big year but feeling good and I think it’s well worth the shot at coming down to bottom on everything at the moment. Wish me luck!
It’s hard work but getting out the other side! It’s worth the effort to spend on yourself and keep trying for better outcomes whether it’s for meds or things like diet and exercise.
It also helps when your older and symptoms have subsided but things like way less horniness really do help…You win some you lose some if you get my drift!
