Rff1010 - That is still relatable - I had an issue in the beginning with one of my older machines and I probably spent the better part of an afternoon ripping, then realigning, then sewing, then ripping, then realigning - it's a vicious cycle. I don't have a longarm, but I can only imagine just how frustrating it was.
peaceandjoy - No shame. My brain doesn't make/use some of the chemicals needed, so I'm supplementing with a prescription. If that's what someone is going to judge me on, they aren't worth being part of my life anyhow...
That's how it should always be. I let my closest people know what I'm taking but everyone else can take a hike if they don't understand. Side effects for the Cymbalta has been manageable, I have some muscle stiffness sometimes, also get a weird headache on the occasion. The dry mouth is making me drink a lot of water, but the way I see it, that's a very good thing and it's helped me with the early morning shaking I get. I drink eight ounces right before bed, then before I even put my feet down on the floor in the morning, I drink another eight ounces. Granted, I have to get up at night at some point, but I'll take an early morning bathroom trip over the trembling any day of the week.
