Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 I to find in the begin some things supplements or medications seem to be effective in the begin and then after a short time the affect fades away and it is of not effective for me . Such as taking of the neurontin for my pains of the autoimmune issues, seems to be to affected greatly the emotional states of me in positive ways and maked me feel actually calm and happy but at the same time it did dull the pains over all. but now it does not seem to affect the emotional states as strong to me, but does still seem to help of the pains mildly to moderately. I to also had of this affect with relacore? or somethings of that as my anxiety always tends to have of me in the fight or flight responses and so the hairs on the arms ofme would be to get stiff and cause me to feel as if bugs were of moving on my body but it was just the hyper awareness of the air moving the hairs that were of stiff when anxious and often found self adapting by rubbing of my arms to my body and shirt to get of the hairs to be of back on the arms the way they need to be. But with relacore it helped of that sensation to be not there for a time but over time it simply went back as if not taking anythings. So for me nothing seems to last long as far as affect that is of long lasting. But in past also took of buspar and lexapro regularly for emotional states of anxiety and the PTSD, but I to not be to be of consistent on it because of lack of supports and cant seem to find the energy to fight and figure out the mail order things to get of them. so it leaves of me not being on it consistently so for the last few months not taking any medications for the PTSD. For me the PTSD can bed at times more challenging for me to work through than the autism itself, but at times the autism can seem like it is of too big for me to cope too. The real issues is of knowing which is of the core of my reactions and responses to the world around me. which is the one triggering the so called negative reactionns. it takes of much work to understand of this in me from a professionals stand points. But every day I to be of trying to find coping tools to help of me manage of self and be more aware of emotional states within me. sometimes can be aware of it and other times not i to just build like the pressure of a volcano and explode. when the eruption of all the stuffefd things with me comes out it shuts me down much so and causes a mass shifting of emotional states within me. I to be of in need of calm and much aloneness and deep pressure, and sensory pleasant things to me and comfort foods and items. But usually I to end up in mental health places that have no clue to autism at all, and treat of it as if it is of a mental disorder and this is of a wrong way to work out people whith auitsm who are in distress. but for now this is of all most of society offers. for that I to try to do learn as mucha s can to foind ways to prevent self from to end up in those places , because to end up there adds to my over all PTSD. This is why I to be of open to biomedical because if it can help of me be medically balanced it can also maybe lead to a more emotionally balanced person too. But sometimes it is because the people around me who are in the daily life of me are not balanced and this causse me to feel more out of sync.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Sondra Sorry to hear you are having difficulties. I am not sure about eveyone but for me and my daughter we seem to do the same thing with medicine and supplements that you do. They seem to be working great and then it starts to dwindle. I have taken neruotin for nerve damage to my foot, I was at the maximum dosage - 3 100 mg pills 3 times a day and it just didn't seem to work. I am currently trying Lyrica, I am told it's in the same family. Not sure if it will work or not, since I just started taking it. I was wondering why you don't have your husband complete the paper work for your medicine that have to mail ordered? Maybe he could support you in this area? I would be happy to help you if you want. I have had to get medicine for Kayla that way. From what I remember and it could be different for your plan you need a prescription for at least 3 months supply and refills. You fill out the paperwork and attached the script and mail it in with either a check or credit card info. If you want you can fax it to me and I can try to figure it out for you. Email me off list and I will give you my fax number.
