hi Q

I'm going through a lot myself so sorry it took me awhile to write as well. Sorry to hear you're having a rough time. Hopfully the tianeptine will help. Did you ever start the piracetam and vinpocetine?

I took my first dose of vinpocetine this morning and will take another with my afternoon meds. I'm hoping it helps. The piracetam hasn't arrived yet. That's the one thing I hate about having to order stuff - you never know how long things will take to arrive. I'm already wondering if I need to order more tianeptine, as I remember it took a long time to arrive. It's fairly expensive and I'm not sure what, if anything, it's doing.. so I'm not even sure whether I should continue. With so much going on, who can tell what works anymore? Though I feel so desperate, anything that 'seems' to help feels worth it, I guess

and I'm rambling here - going round and round LOL

PRN will most definitely deny me the opiates. By their way of thinking, they make one "impaired and unable to perform" as a therapist. That I now have physical limitations will only hurt my case with them as they can say if I can't work without pain meds, I shouldn't be working at all. My contention with the board will be that with these problems, I won't be able to work more that part time and certainly can't afford, nor do I need to be, monitored. I'll totally play down the pain killers as they'll feel just as PRN does and will just deny me the license if they think I'm too ill to work without pain meds.

Actually I need to ask my doctor for something different. She's been yelling at me to take them at night... but as we know, because of their AD effects on me, that's the last time of day I want to take them! Though I do need something that's probably more sedating to help with the pain at night.

it's so different now that I have them for pain. Almost confusing, because if I take them during the day, I feel better and do stuff, like work on the computer longer than I should. Then I end up REALLY hurting. Since I'm still learning what the hell's even worng with me (besides the torn rotator cuff and shoulder inflammation) I don't really like to take anything besides anti-inflammatories. The tendonisits and nerve compression continues to get worse... and I've basically been reduced to doing nothing. In fact, I've been meaning to find that post about agoraphobia I saw was moved to social. While I've never really accepted the way they describe it as something I feel, my inability to go out of the house has become a problem... but then again, my inability to even do anything IN the house is just as much of one! sigh... I do hate being alive most of the time. Even when I'm feeling better, I still just dread living. It's just too hard.. something I've lost my ability to do.. it's like I finally lost the battle I've dealt with for so many years... I've pulled off a lot - feels like my life, whatever it was worth, is now behind me - I think I'm done

I hope you're feeling better soon! Please keep me posted on your journey with the nootropics as well as the taineptine :))

namaste,
lilith
