Hi,
I'm new to the Pscho Babble boards. I thought I'd stick my nose in and say hello.
I have to thank Dr. Bob for the laughs recently. I have been coming to his tips site for over two years now.
It appears he has been having fun with his graphics card - I come to the site just to see what his imagination has come up with next.
I appreciate all the work that goes into this site and all those that share.
My doc isn't 100 percent sure, and he doesn't care much for labels, but he thinks I have either borderline personality disorder or bi-polar depression. I've been on Zoloft, Celexa, and am now taking name brand Prozac, 20mg twice weekly. My doc prescribed BuSpar 10mg twice daily augmented to Prozac to see if I will improve more than I have, which results have been so-so. Prozac is working out better for me than either the Celexa or the Zoloft. Only complaints is terrible short and long term memory, word-finding difficulties, and I sleep too deeply in the morning. I just hate to get out of bed, especially while in a dream. I used to be a hyper morning person mainly due to extreme anxiety. Not anymore. I'm apathetic. Anorgasmia isn't as bad with twice weekly dosing. I was taking Prozac every other day. Prozac works very well for my anger outbursts.
I don't know if this is the board to introduce myself - but, anyway, hello from hot, hazy, humid Arkansas. Hubby is an engineer, and I'm a housefrau. We have no children (thankfully - I could not handle having children for I have an extremely bad temper and am immature). We have cats, a new puppy, and chickens.
Enough said : )

Hi Fuschia, Welcome
It was one of the other babblers who made the funny pictures, and Bob seems to be using them one by one. Here's the original thread...

I am pretty new here too. I'm a bit of a late-nite web junkie and it's great to be able to rant about my pitiful life here.
That is quite a bunch of meds you are on, I hope you get it all straightened out. I am on a minimal bipolar2 combo, Neurontin and Celexa. Prozac gave me the most vivid dreams! There were all these exotic animals with iridescent fur and feathers, and I got to pet them. Unfortunately the dreams were also full of terrible bodily function stuff that's too gross to mention, yuck.
Welcome again!

Thanks for welcoming me. I checked out the link and had a great laugh!
Zoloft made my hands shake when it was upped to 50mg. I was too uncomfortably nervous and gittery.
Celexa made me worse, made me depressed. But, it didn't effect my libido.
I asked my doc about neurontin and he probably won't prescribe it - he said he hasn't been pleased with its results. He's not much into psychopharmacology.
I've always been a dreamer, like my mom, as in sleep dreams ; ), but I do find I dream more. I could tell you the one I had this morning - Micheal Keaton was in it as well as Chuck Conners. I was in some comedy sitcom and I remember walking into a public bathroom singing some song that went something like, "Let's have a toilet pow-wow". Real silly and strange. I wish I could plug my dreams into a display so my husband could watch them. They are just too strange to describe. I have lots of dreams where I have no clothes on or no undies, and I'm quite uncomfortable thinking everyone is noticing me. Usually it is associated with a toilet. I'm going to have to find a site that interprets dreams. I have another repeat toilet dream where I need to use the commode, but there is no door on the stall, and usually the toilet is messy. Strange.
I'll be "seeing" you as I read more of the posts - there are so many!
Take care, Fuscia
