Only if you're a pussy that can't hold their liquor.

Acid reflux - you've never had it before?

Burning sensation in the lungs/solar plexus? WOW. I have not considered it.

IT'S A DISEASE. GET NEXIUM NOW.

I fucking despise having to take Nexium every day though, once you start you're pretty well fucked

once you pop, you can't stop

I was only put on Nexium for ~8 weeks in Spring of last year. I also adjusted my diet and have been fine since.

the only solution is suicide. sorry!

yeah but my CAREER

So what's the shitty thing about taking Nexium every day?

Makes your stomach feel heavy ALL THE TIME, slight listlessness.

it's a weird thing for me, because I spent years dispensing meds to psych patients - not all waste-you-completely psychotropic meds, either: the whole spectrum, rather - and could never understand why people who knew that stopping their meds would leave them high & dry would so routinely decide to start refusing medication. But there's this helplessness I feel about needing something twice daily just to get by, and the systemic slow-down that naus describes compouding it, that makes me wanna say "dammit to hell, I don't want to be reliant on this shit." My doctor even told me that the damage has been healed and I could stop, but when I stop for a week, my voice really starts to show it. I think the short answer is "it makes me feel old and dependant, and I don't like that."

coming from a family of suicides and depressives (the former quit their medications, the latter stuck it out) i have a real personal dislike of kneejerk hatred of psychiatric medications, which seems to be quite prevalent in the US right now. one of my former roommates was told me about the time he was so depressed he was holding a loaded shotgun to his head, contemplating eternity, but decided against it...in the same breath he said "still, i'd rather be dead than on psychiatric medication." dud.

i thought your chest just hurt?

― boo berry (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 01:19 (nineteen years ago)

anyway i still counsel suicide

I hear that if you pop enough acid reflux medication, you see God.

Well, my GERD wasn't so bad I guess, because I was only put on the pills long enough to heal my throat and esophagus. The doctor knew that I'd be more into a holistic approach anyway, and gave me the dietary recommendations/lifestyle guidelines, of which I only break one or two per day.

SP I don't know if you're tangeting but you'll note that I am pro-psych meds, having spent much of my professional life dispensing them and seeing the real good they can do. I'm just saying that I now understand a little better how some of my former patients felt about the whole matter.

Suicide Baiting: Explain This?

― DUMBOCLAAT (eman), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 01:50 (nineteen years ago)

Nothing to explain.

End it all. NOW.

My nan used to tell me to relax my solar plexus but I wasn't sure what it was, so I relaxed everything and hoped for the best.

Thomas having to take meds daily for acid reflux, asthma and more than 4 different pyschatric meds I can completely understand where you're coming from. I FUCKIN' HATE PILLS.

the best cure is to leave ilx and never come back.
