I should be sleeping right now so that i can teach my students tomorrow, but instead im in the dark crying and eating chocolate. My room is and has been a dump for days but i cant seem to do anything about it. Im just binge watching tv shows to distract myself from screaming and smashing things, and worse, giving in to the feeling of strangling people. In my good days i believe that life is still worth living, but my hormones would not allow me to hold onto them for 2 to 3 weeks each month. Right now i feel life is 💩and we're just trapped in it. God, i just want relief😮‍💨

Hey! So EMDR didn’t help you?

I gained over 20lbs in 2 weeks and am still gaining. Here I thought strattera was supposed to suppress appetite, not make my stomach feel bottomless.

Can tell if you're trolling or not. I wouldn't show this to ANYONE if I were you. O.o

I have adhd too AND pmdd, and freakin anxiety and depression…. And body image issues really bad

Week before my period started developing weird symptoms anxiety and a fear to go outside, eventhough every other time I go out without an issue. Yesterday I had period flu felt absolutely awful 😢 today my period started feel extremely fatigued brain fog and anxiety 😥. It’s coming and going in waves. I know I will be better in a few days then it all starts again during ovulation and after before my next period.

It started working for me right away I felt it and what happened was the stratara 40mg, pushed all my other medication like away it's like a way like I was completely sober cause I was on methadone and lorazapam for anxiety and then I was just bugging out you know like I had just sniffed A-line of coke ,but it was too much ; So I'm gonna go back on the is the salt's adderall XR 10 milligrams is enough for me.

🥰🥰🥰🧡🧡🧡feeling like this now

thank you for speaking your heart out... i hope and pray that you will get better..

Sometimes PMDD symptoms stayed after period i got confused when i experience it. It's really hard to explain sometimes i only have 1 week OKAY and the rest are suffering...😬🥺 so tiring!

This video ruined my life

Cymbalta ruined my life. I went crazy and when I stopped it just got worse. My ADHD is way worse now. Lots of me ory loss

I understand. It's so bad. So bad.

I just went through this. It was not fun. Not only was going through physical sx, acne, breast tenderness, bloating, fatigue; I felt super depressed and suicidal. I couldn't even go to work. It is was bad. So I feel your pain. Thank you for sharing but you are not alone.

I understand you 100%

I promise I understand.. what do we need 2 do 2 overcome this?? It is continuing to negatively affect my entire life.. we have 2 figure this out.

Keep plugging. You're helping others by sharing your experience.

Dank je wel voor deze video te maken. Ik maak ongeveer juist hetzelfde mee momenteel.. Ik had ook intuïtief het gevoel dat ik dit middel niet moest nemen maar ze wilden me geen andere medicatie geven totdat ik eerst deze medicatie had genomen. Ik herken mezelf ook niet meer. Ik ben ook altijd super positief en kan mezelf een pep talk geven over dat ik de baddest bitch ben en dan kom ik er vaak wel uit als ik depressieve gedachtes heb. Dit is totaal anders voel me ook echt mentaal zwakker, minder vreugde, EXTREEM ongemotiveerd!! Zoiets heb ik nog nooit meegemaakt.. Niks en niemand boeit me iets en wil ook niks met de buitenwereld te maken hebben, zit volledig in mn eigen wereld. Wil zelfs mn telefoon niet meer opnemen. Ik heb enorme oorsuizingen.. Ik heb me de laatste dagen afgevraagd of ik me moest laten opnemen omdat ik voelde dat het helemaal de mist aan het ingaan was. Wat ik absoluut niet begrijp is dat ze dit middel aan mensen geven die niet depressief zijn.. Hoe krijg je een normaal iemand depri, door ze anti depressiva te geven.. Ik kan er niet bij dat je neuroloog dit heeft toegestaan.. Ik kan er nog inkomen dat psychiaters misschien niet alles weten maar een neuroloog die dit toeslaat voor neurologisch probleem wow 🤯 Dit is mn 2e dag zonder. Bijwerkingen zijn er nog altijd en vraag me af wanneer die weggaan. Hoe lang heb jij er nog last van gehad?

I haven't had any major side effects while on straterra.

Hey! This was really very helpful for me. I'm really thankful, I thought I was exaggerating but I actually have a food addiction.... I really believed that binge eating was normal, my family normalized it since I was a child.. and even tho I realized it wasn't healthy, I just couldn't stop the urge of binge eating is sooo triggering. I just have a terrible anxiety, I decide to take a bath to calm myself or go to sleep but im still thinking about food always food its really ruining my life. I have so many triggering and binge foods, I need help. Thank you

Did EMDR help you stop binge eating?? I'm considering trying it myself for this issue. Thanks!

Day three for me on 18mg and I feel like crap. I can't move properly, my whole body hurts, I feel very weak and like I'm walking through treacle, I feel angry and irritable. I think I'm becoming zombiefied on this drug. I definitely don't want to become depressed.

Everything you’ve said are thoughts I have every month. I hate it so much. You are not alone, I wish I could give you a hug. ❤️ my heart breaks that we have to go through this. Let’s be gentle on ourselves, we deserve it. ❤️

Hi, I can clearly understand what a dramatic change it caused and you had to walk that path. But tbh, I only see the problem either on you(weakly) or on your practitioner(strongly) with due all my respect. TL;DR; Especially for ADHDers :) 1. Choose a practitioner that monitors you. (go to a practitioner one that already suggested from an ADHDer etc.) 2. Fix your sleep, nutrition, exercise hygiene. 3. Do not forget you are under the medication influence that manipulates your perception. Note down everything. Monitor yourself. If you are living closely with family members and/or friends, GF/BF. Make them understand the importance of the situation and let them monitor you. Since you are in the box. I use Strattera for 9 months, actually a comorbid medication on top of that I also use a low dose stimulant when I need motivation drive and focus. Basically, Strattera solved all the chaos in my life and it lay down in good order except one thing. I was very motivated in life and never able to consistently do things. But I realized Strattera just killed all that appetizing. So my life turned into a sort of bare minimum living state. Performing well at work, a clean house, schedules just smooth. But I wasn't even enjoying watching TV. so it clearly turned me into a robot. Sometimes some foggy thoughts as well. But I had one idea aside all the time. I'm on a serious medication "a psychiatric medication" that manipulates my perception that my only tool in life to perceive things. So this explains the seriousness of psychiatric medication right? So I have to monitor myself. They gave me a mood diary for 15 days in the beginning and by far 30 min appointment every month to explain my mood during the month and any cardiovascular change etc. along with HR and blood pressure control. So if you get into these type of super dangerous spiral down. Even you had your boyfriend aside you. This only tells me that there is a great lack of care in that practice. (I don't sue you because you are the patient, but your care practitioner just gave you the medication and send you away. This is not understandable ) Sorry for long text, but besides that, there are people when they start medication they paranoidly search everything and every negative experience for them is just scaring them especially the experience you share. What I realize along the way, medication can give you a silent mind. which an ADHDer is not really used to... and doesn't even know what to suppose to do with since it's not native feelings. It takes time to adjust. For me, I cannot still say I'm 100% used to the feelings medication is giving. I also recognize having exercise dramatically changes Strattera's effect on me. and I have to sleep 8 ~ 9 hours, before medication I was barely sleeping 6 ~ 7 hours. I eat super clean. I find time to study my interests in-depth for the first time that consistently at the age of 32. I'm not happy with its cardiovascular properties and I'm trying to neutralize with some supplements and if I cannot fix it. I may stop it. But everybody should search for a trustable practitioner and go for a trial for themselves. Everybody is unique in the end.

So glad I found this!

strattera ruined my life

"Wow your experience on Strattera is exactly the same as my experience, l started having this really explosive anger and I didn't understand why? I wanted to die,I felt like everyone was against me. It was the worst feeling in the whole world.

Well, what an impressionist opinion. These are one of the clearly SIDE EFFECTS that you must communicate to your specialists so they can adjust your treatment or change medication Always make sure you read the information of the side effects so you can know when any medication is affecting you Strattera has been very beneficial to other patients, we all are different

Just found out I'm suffering from PMDD, its been ruining my life for years and I had no clue whats going on with me, it feels horrible seeing someone struggling like that but at least I know I'm not alone, thank you for sharing

Hey, I'm a guy that recently got diagnosed with ADHD and told that I don't think strattera would be anything for me, but low and behold I am now prescribed it. Today is gonna be my first day taking it and I'm scared it's not gonna motivate me in anyway and that it isn't gonna give a instant result. I just can't wait any longer and I don't wanna take this shit for another 4 weeks to change again. Do you have any comment on this?

I have tried everything I feel so heavy sometimes with depression. I can’t seem to complete all the daily responsibilities. I have changed. Not in a good way. I’m trying to get through the day during these episodes, with binging. It’s like I way 1000 lbs. It doesn’t help , mission impossible. I am tired of feeling crazy and out of character, then trying to explain to my loved ones. I’m with you on this journey.

Feels good to know I'm not alone in this. Today is my first day of pmdd (again😔) and it's frustrating. I have to go to school tomorrow (I'm in college). I literally cry for no reason and have panic attacks, random emotional break downs, ect. Around this time when I get like this I just want to quit school so bad ( I almost did a few times). But my boyfriend is always really supportive and keeps me going some how. I don't know how he puts up with me when I get like this. Thanks for the video and letting us know where not alone. It helps.

Love it! 💞 I always get Inspired to pick up my Hoop again when I see how Passionate someone is about Hooping! Maybe one day I will be as good as you are! 😊 Love you Girl! 💜💫💜

Thank you so much for sharing this. I am having an episode right now and it helps to know that I’m not alone💜

Omg your doggo is just the sweetest! <3 <3 <3

EEEEEEEEEEP!!!! 😍 CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH!!!!!! 💝🎉 Thank you for sharing this Joyful moment with Us! 😭❤ It was so exciting to watch! I am so Happy for you! Best Wishes!!!! ❤✨❤ You deserve it! 😁

I know how this feels. The past weekend it was so hard for me to get out of bed and I couldn’t get myself to do any tasks. But the feelings pass eventually when your period is over. I only have one or two “good weeks” throughout the month, the rest of the month i’m depressed. Hang in there, you’re not alone ❤️

Hi love. 💖 I'm sorry that I am late, I have been dealing with Panic Attacks too. 😔 They got better for Awhile, and Recently came back to the point I couldn't leave the house again. I had to force myself to get out of bed today, and I just wanted to be left alone. There is so much stress going on, All I want to do is Binge, But it will only make me feel Shittier after, and then I know I would have to do more than what I am doing to get rid of it, and I am so tired. Mentally & Physically. You are not alone when it comes to this. I know that when I am having an Attack, there isn't much anyone can say to help or make me feel better. It's okay to say fuck the World and take a day for yourself, or however long you need to. Even now, you are still an Inspiration to me. You have helped me so much already. 💜 I know it's not much, but I am here and I understand how you're feeling and how much it fucking Sucks! And I support you Always. No matter what you decide to do. Please keep me updated on Saturday. I know how exhausting it is to fight through this every day and I know that you will come back even stronger because you are a Warrior and you are teaching me how to be one too! 💜💜 I am always sending Positive Energy that the Financial Situation with you and your Boyfriend gets better soon. I wish I could help. I hate that I can't because I am out of work due to my Disorders. 😞 I told my Boyfriend for Christmas I want many things from your Store! 😇 By the way, I dont know if I told you already but the fries were Delicious! The Pancakes are next! Hehe 😊 I love you Girl and I hope you are starting to feel bette by the time you read this. 💖✨🦉💖

Flicking me off Girl 😂 Just kidding! Hehe 😄 I'm sorry I'm late watching your Video; My Dog isn't doing good and I have been taking care of him. I haven't Binged but I have been very close to it because of all the Stress! Instead of doing 7 miles I am now doing 8. It does get boring though so I started playing with my Hoop again 😊 Everyone is saying I am doing too much. I'm addicted to working out because if I don't I feel like a Fat Blob. I am finally starting to see progress which has kept me from Binging, but I've been having severe Panic Attacks again. 😔 I am temporarily out of work too until I can get everything under control. I'm sorry you're going through it too Girl; I hope things get better. 💖 I'm Glad that you aren't Binging because of this and I'm excited you are trying things differently. 💓 I am too! You have Inspired me so much and I love how passionate you are about your channels. 😊 I had no idea you had a store, I know what I will be buying myself for Christmas 😇 Hehe! Sending good energy your way 💖💫💖

Omg this was Fun! 😄 You and Robert are so good together! 😊 And I Absolutely love the necklace, it's Beautiful! 💗💗 I can't wait to make those Fries 😍

This is me 100%! I have dealt with Anxiety all of my life, and I am the same way when it comes to gatherings. I am addicted to exercising too, and I always find myself pushing my body even more to try to lose more weight before I have to go to a gathering. My disorders and anxiety like to agitate one another. I have been binging on and off for weeks and I am so fat right now I don't even want to leave the house. I am so glad you uploaded this today, I really needed this. Of course we are going through this together. We are alike in so many ways! Please don't feel ashamed because you are a role model, at least to me. You remind me that this is temporary, and I will stay strong. 💖 You are an Inspiration to me. Love you girl; We got this. 💜✨💜

This really hit close to home for me too. 💗 What you said helped me to look at things Differently. It makes so much Sense! The next time I get that feeling, I will remember this and try to deal with it in a better way that doesn't involve panic attacks and binge eating. 😖😅 Thank you so much Lovely 💖✨💖 And I am glad all is Well. 😘
