To tell you the truth...... Manic exercise and this forum has filled my void and has given me a diversion from what could have been an otherwise depressing set of circumstances. Hand surgery, not working, isolated, overweight, drinking way to much beer, can't bowl anymore, can't play golf anymore (which I was good at both btw), no sex life or physical affirmation whatsoever. etc. etc. Whoa is me. F that! :)

Now, if you'll just learn an instrument. Don't try—do it!

 

You took it by the horns Old School. Look at what you've changed. You know nothing changes if NOTHING CHANGES! My applause for the courage to make a change. A lesson to everyone.

Do you need a functional right (dominant) hand to play an instrument? :huh: There is a song about Changes. I believe a dude named Trevor wrote it...... :D-13:

My wrist only bends about 10 degrees forward and none back and it is stiff and hurts like hell most of the time. My fingers to are swelled some and stiff all the time. There are certain things, and mostly taken for granted things by most, that require creativity for me to do anymore. You can use your imagination on those if you dare too :scared: ..... :D-13:

It's my right hand. My dominant hand. It might get more limber and usable over time. I am good for now....

I hope you attempt to learn an instrument even with your hand troubles. You never, could even be beneficial to your recovery by picking something up. Your son is a musician...sure he could show you a thing or two. Live in the now bro!

How dominant - I know it's not as easy to retrain the brain when we're older (I'm 45), but it can be done. I'm left-handed but somewhat ambidextrous - if I HAD to switch I could. The only activities I'm a lefty on are writing and eating. No one writes anything anymore, and believe me I will find a way to get food to my mouth.

I can do many things left handed (athletic background). A few years back I spent a summer learning to bowl left handed. I am not nearly as good and if you knew me you would know how frustrating that is for me. Competitive is an understatement... :)

Here's what sort of defined it for me.

 

I'd be depressed - as in confined-to-the-house-almost-immobile, disengaged depressed regardless of external conditions. To me, and to people who knew me, it didn't make sense; outwardly everything was fine. I'd have the usual common stressors like bills and all, but I had/have a good job. No family problems and I was physically healthy.

 

So it made no sense to anyone, including me, why I'd feel as though I was drowning in some kind of nameless sorrow. It is not normal. Telling myself that there was no reason for it

It's all too common Mara. Humanity has been dealing with this forever.

 

Gandhi and CS Lewis called it the "God-shaped" hole. A hole that can only be filled by God. Whether or not you believe in a god isn't relevant. Everyone experiences this emptiness. How we try to fill it varies from person to person.

 

Doctors have become our defacto "priests". They give hope found in a pill.

 

 

That may explain why my last psychiatrist has been such a staunch atheist. Well, that and because some of his patients have had religious delusions that have led to many late-night emergency calls. :eyeroll:

 

Anyway, if I may offer my experience of having been treated for Bipolar I since childhood, psychoanalysis and neurology have come a long way. However the study still has a very, very long way to go. Meanwhile there are serious sociological factors at play in terms of how those with disorders are treated and cared for. In terms of prescribing meds, the ugly truth is that growing populations often mean that doctors are booked and have little choice but to offer quick fixes.

 

Instead of going off of meds alone, though, you could ask the doctor what kind of alternatives would be a good choice to supplement them. Some great ones are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, meditation, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (intense, but great for trauma sufferers) and certain dietary changes and exercises. These might not make it possible to go off meds entirely, but you'll probably be able to reduce your dose and minimize those side effects.

You know, good question but I don't think there's really a tie in. I took Chantix for the first two months of my quit and was very careful to monitor my moods since Chantix has apparently been shown to be a cause of depression for some people. It didn't bother me.

 

I haven't been wanting nicotine any more or less than usual. I think about how nice it might be to have a cigarette about every two or three days and I still think secondhand smoke smells divine, but I no longer have any hardcore cravings.

 

That is something I never thought I would see someone say.

Seems like that stuff may kill libido too, or maybe it's just being married to me...... :huh: :)

That, my friend, is all TOO common, and mostly associated with females. Meds impact people—PERIOD. No way around it. According to statistics female usage of prescribed medication dwarfs that of men...except for boys diagnosed with ADHD. It's the reverse in that gender and age group.

 

I'll admit that I'm not sold on the benefit of psyche meds...people are all too eager to throw pills in their mouth in order to take the edge off their stress levels.

 

The pharmaceutical companies are making addicts by the tens of thousands with drugs that they have no real idea how it will impact people later in life.

It seems a horny pill should at least go along with them to counterbalance the effects.... :)

Libido oddly returns to somewhat normal levels when people commit to physical excercise. Sex is THE stress reliever when done right.

 

My psych wants me doing a very brisk walk 45 minutes a day, sex days a week. (Whoops, Freudian slip there, but why fix it? Too perfect.) Anyway, before putting me on medication he wants me to try exercising more, says it would help with everything in general.

To tell you the truth...... Manic exercise and this forum has filled my void and has given me a diversion from what could have been an otherwise depressing set of circumstances. Hand surgery, not working, isolated, overweight, drinking way to much beer, can't bowl anymore, can't play golf anymore (which I was good at both btw), no sex life or physical affirmation whatsoever. etc. etc. Whoa is me. F that! :)

 

Yeah it's hard to have a sex life when you've had hand surgery. :syrinx:

I want to be serious though, I am sorry that you're going through all of this. I used to enjoy being on bowling leagues when I was in elementary school and then once again I joined a company league about 6 years ago but now my wrist and elbow just won't have it. :no:

 

Getting old sucks, sometimes it seems like it's nothing but a sexless existence filled with doctor's and surgery appointments and sitting in the waiting rooms of pharmacies and Emergency Rooms. Good thing the pharmacies sell beer as well, I guess. :hail:

The sexless existence part is spot on. It hurts for sure. Everybody, I would think, wants to feel like they have some sex appeal to somebody (anybody!!!). On a lighter note, try having your "sex partner" in a cast for three months..... :syrinx: :) Edited by Narpet

I wish I had an answer for you, the only thing that somewhat helps is the $149.00 an hour doctor I meet with once a week (thank the Lord for insurance) lol.

No, dear. You passed their test. I am the official thread killer, but if the thread is too good to be killed by my posting in it, it is just ignored.

I wish I had an answer for you, the only thing that somewhat helps is the $149.00 an hour doctor I meet with once a week (thank the Lord for insurance) lol.

At least you give a sh*t enough to respond..... :rose: :)

 

Meanwhile, I'm just glad I didn't kill the thread. I'll keep the personal revelations to myself from now on. :ph34r:

I, for one, enjoyed reading your personal revelations if that helps any. I am the thread killer around here anyway... :)

No, dear. You passed their test. I am the official thread killer, but if the thread is too good to be killed by my posting in it, it is just ignored.

Are you saying I am an official "club member" now? Whatever that means. I look forward to your posts if it means anything. I look for you and miss you when you are actually out having a life.... :)

To tell you the truth...... Manic exercise and this forum has filled my void and has given me a diversion from what could have been an otherwise depressing set of circumstances. Hand surgery, not working, isolated, overweight, drinking way to much beer, can't bowl anymore, can't play golf anymore (which I was good at both btw), no sex life or physical affirmation whatsoever. etc. etc. Whoa is me. F that! :)

 

Yeah it's hard to have a sex life when you've had hand surgery. :syrinx:

 

I want to be serious though, I am sorry that you're going through all of this. I used to enjoy being on bowling leagues when I was in elementary school and then once again I joined a company league about 6 years ago but now my wrist and elbow just won't have it. :no:

It is nice feeling like you are desired and it's frustrating when you think your partner isn't interested or you aren't interested in them. I think all partners go through a down period. IDK. Relationships can be so hard sometimes.
