Bored symptoms and conditions

I have been on the Nuvaring for about 5 years now. I agree that my sex drive has diminished greatly, but I just thought I was bored of my boyfriend, didn't consider the ring to be the culprit! I never had a history of depression but in the past two years there have been times I have felt so sad that I didn't want to get out of bed and I'm not that type of person at all. I, too, blamed it on my long-term boyfriend, thinking that I just wanted happy in my relationship when the the truth is I just wasn't happy period. As for pregnancy paranoia, well, the ring is 99.9% effective so if you're using it right you really have no worries there. But it does affect your body, for sure. You just have to ride it out, get medication to counter-act it (which isn't the best solution but it works,) or try something else. Not everyone has negative side-affects, so they could go away if you give your body a chance to get over it - but weigh the consequences, Nuvaring is convenient but not if it pulls you down. Being a woman is tough sometimes!!

I just had surgery and they prescribed Levaquin 500mg. I have just started taken three days ago. My legs has sharp pains as well as my achilles. I have had numbness in my arms and hands. Also, minor confusion and comprehension. I DID NOT know all of this. The side effects on the labels does not say all these side effects on this bored. Now, I am worried after reading all of this. I am not putting another pill in my mouth. My doctor did not say " stop taking this at the sign of ..." This sounds like poison rather than a cure.

Hello all: It's me again, in my last post, i said that i wanted to decrease the dose and try with 0.050 mgs. I just couldn't handle the dark black boredom and depressive moods. So i had to up it back to 0.075 milligrams to feel alive in this planet again, any dose lower than that would make me feel de-realized, unaroused, and unmotivated. but a dose higher than 0.075 mgs, would make me feel too hungry, too nervous and angry (Oh i wanted to say that i am trying to quit smoking, but i cannot stop right now, i feel too bored, too depressed sometimes, so today i will smoke a cigarette, just 1 for the road :-)

Hello all: You are right about that this medicine causes extreme hunger, and anxiety and if u lower the dose it would make you feel real bored and depressed. I think that you can experiment. Try to lower the dose and if you feel too depressed, try to increase it to the next available dose. I was taking 0.075 MGs but at this dose i felt too hungry most of the time, so i had to decrease it to 0.050 MGS.

I've been on Effexor XR for a few weeks now for GAD and depression after being on Prozac for two years on and off. I dont know if its helping me or making me worse, its reduced my anxiety quite a bit, but I think its making my depression worse. I dont really know what it is, but a week after i started taking it I've started crying quite a bit. Previously I rarely cried because i felt so distant from my emotions, but now I seem to be feeling worse. The thing is I dont know if this is an improvement because I can actually feel something or if its worse because all i seem to be feeling is miserable. I cant seem to enjoy anything at all and I've lost most of my motivation since i started Effexor. I've noticed that I've become rather snappy and rude to people - this is not like me at all. I've lost all my enthusiasm for life (not that there was much to begin with) and it seems like theres nothing to look forward to. I seem to be thinking about suicide more than when i wasnt on it. I've never slept properly but now I keep on semi waking up during the night all the time. I know that its possible that my depression may have been getting worse regardless of the Effexor but i seriously think the two are related. But what worries me the most and is making me feel terrible is that Ive seen effexor advertised as an antidepressant 'for treatment resistant depression' - kinda makes me wonder that if its doing nothing good to me then what hope do i have? no wonder people are killing themselves on antidepressants - theyre advertised as some miracle cure and when they dont work then what are people supposed to do? im beginning to think more and more that im not depressed but i just have a pathetic personality that makes me sluggish and bored. feels like Effexor not working seems to confirm that.
