    • About Me

      I just graduated from NYU with a degree in philosophy and jazz. I love them both equally, and I'm preparing to apply to grad school for a PhD in philosophy. I have some time off now to spend writing music, philosophy, and renewing my spiritual practices. My most recent studies are in shamanism.

    • Close Narcolepsy

      I have IH, not narcolepsy...but since symptoms and treatment are similar, I thought I would join the group here.

      Treatments

      Adderall Too Soon to Tell
      Provigil Somewhat Helpful
      Ritalin Somewhat Helpful
      I only started taking it today (10/22/07). It gave me a background headache rather quickly, but it wasnt unbearable. It did make me feel alert, so hopefully it will help as an augmentation to the Provigil.
      Xyrem Not Working
      It made me feel like I was overdosing on hard drugs every night.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I've had recurrent major depression since I was 13, and didn't seek out treatment until I was 18. Now I'm just trying to keep my life on a straight path.

      Treatments

      Abilify Not Working
      Geodon Not Working
      Meditation Working / Worked
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Seroquel Not Working
      Topamax Not Working
      I was unable to think when I took this. ...as a philosophy major I couldn't even write a paper on descartes...
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      This in combination with zoloft has worked best. I actually know what it's like to be content (most of the time...or at least some).
      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      Zoloft drastically changed my life for the better.
      Zyprexa Not Working
    • Open Sports Injuries
      Type: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)

      I partially tore my ACL almost a year ago. I went to PT for a few months, but Dr.'s will not give me the surgery because my knee doesn't give out often enough. I actively snowboard and skate, and I was essentially told to return to the Dr. once I've torn it all the way through.

      Treatments

      Heat Somewhat Helpful
      Ice Pack Somewhat Helpful
      Cortisone (Injection) Not Working
      Hydrocodone Working / Worked
      Oxycodone Working / Worked
      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      Gave me a decent amount of ROM back.
    • Open Families & Friends Affected By Suicide

      I lost a good friend to it when I was 14. I've also considered it various times myself, but thankfully always ended up making a better choice.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      I wouldn't be here were it not for the people that have patiently listened to me.
