Doctors don't have test capabilities to know for sure but depending on one's symptoms they often prescribe serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Side effects can include lowered libido, slower metabolism, quality of sleep circadian rhythms and gastrointestinal upsets.

Brands include Lexapro, Zoloft, Prozac, Luvox, Lovan, Aropax, Cipramil and the cheaper Alphapharm equivalents.

To get off them requires a bit of supplement > neurotransmitter juggling/testing.

Juxtaposed assistance can include a pet dog/parakeet, consistent exercise, omega 3 fish oil, Inositol, quitting sweets/alcohol/recreational drugs and inhaling (in confined spaces) paints, thinners and varnishes.

The other prescription drug you're on Genelle is a tricyclic type. They've been around since the early 70s when I was first registered. If required the doctors opt for a quadcyclic like Avanza (taken at night) due to its soporific effects. They're used to diminish depressive symptoms.

STOP TRYING TO GET MY FRIENDS ON DRUGS!!!! :P He isn't the only one you reccomended them to either lol

I've been on anti-depressants benzo and alprozam for the past 13 years now for Panic Attacks, Agoraphobia and OCD, to be honest I wish I never started them, I think that they have made me better in one way but worse in many others, I'm struggling to get off them they are so dependent, I never have energy and the have actually made me depressed and emotional, nothing could upset me before I started them but now I'm like a chick with pms, all in all try everything else first before you turn to them, St Johns Wort work awesome but I cant take them due to the presciption drugs, I'm trying to wean off the prescriptions and get back on the St Johns Wort.

It was a hard trot but I managed to wean off after about 10 years on assorted meds, had some really fecking bad times in there but been off them (none in the house completely off them) for about 6 months now and only the minor hiccup when I am in a position where I feel like there is a lot of pressure on me and my stress levels go through the roof... Some days are harder than others but when I find myself in a position where I am not feeling 100% I talk to someone, even if it's to distract me until I calm down or ask their opinion on whatever my current trigger is.

It came down to trying a range of supplements and 'natural' rememedies however all in all the best solution seemed to be having a string network of good friends, keeping myself busy and just trying to maintain a level of positivity. It was tough hut it also snowballed. There are dark patches and I just force myself through it.

^This... I cannot agree more with this... Seriously some of the people I met after a massive down of mine have helped me no end without even knowing it, most of them still don't know what they have done for me!

I can't recommend Terry enough had my first consultation with him today and I found it great and really helpful, the detail he goes into is wonderful and doesn't leave you there wondering what the hell he meant as the majority of people I have seen for help from doctors to counselors you name it, just had my first dose of treatment and can't wait to see the results, I will keep you guys posted, thank you very much Terry.

You're very brave Dan to have spoken up like this on an open forum. I'm very proud of you (since it's unsolicited).

A bit of waiting time is required now.

Less of a dietary change than I thought is in order - although one item might need to be monitored.

This thread might end up like an RPAH show eh? But definitely not a circus.

Thanks for starting off with strong motivation - and from your school history let's hope you've got a bright future ahead!

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
