Thank you everyone, for your input.
Racer, I will email you soon. Am tied up in work studies at the moment.
I am thinking that the effexor and lamictal may not be digesting or that I am not metabolising the drug (whatever that might mean). Last night my stomach almost visibly grew until my husband made me sit down. (I have no bowel problems btw).
I have always had a water retention problem which is intensified now. My wedding ring hardly fits and it is only 6 months old!
My toes go blood red and swell and the feel hot, my feet and lower leg aches. Probably because they are small and don't like my hefty butt.
My stomach sort of hurts on the outside, I don't know how to explain it. I would have to say that it's like my stomach is trying to tell me it doesn't belong there. I truly feel that this body doesn't belong on me. It just seems so unatural. But then, what if it is me and my fault?
This whole thing has made me obsess about people sniggering behind my back. My skin crawls when I walk into a room because I am "convinced" people are laughing, pointing, staring. This is ridiculous I know but my reasoning and logic fail me completely right now. I am refusing to go anywhere socially and I am rude to people at work so that they don't want to talk to me. My dear, poor husband cannot have sex with me unless I am clothed from head to foot and the lights are off!
Sorry, I did not mean for this post to turn into another rant, but I wont delete because it made me feel better.
Thanks again everyone.
Sabrina
