The Amen Clinic

Shelly, no ridgeback yet. Hopefully soon. I think whether a dog is vicious or not depends on how well it is socialized when it is young. Thanks for the comments about my website.

Feministcat, no I still have yet to find someone who has been to the Amen Clinic. Still waiting on that...

Soulbrotha, thanks. Sure wish I felt that way. How come I didn't get any hugs in return then under my "Hugs for everyone" post? Hmm? :wink:

Still no one been here? I'm considering going but doing the cheaper scan. But I wonder, once I get the results, then what? They must have done SPECT scans on those with DP. Wonder how we can find out. I recall from Dr. Simeon's DP paper they did PET scans but the results seemed to be inconsistant. So... once it is determined which parts of the brain are not functioning normally, then what? That is my question.

Homeskooled,

Thanks for your knowledge. I wonder though, if they find that a certain part of the brain is not functioning up to par, are there drugs that can target certain parts of the brain? SSRI's, for example, will target the reuptake of serotonin in the entire brain. Just curious. Seriously considering saving for a SPECT scan.

Thanks again!

Cynthia, the symptoms you are describing here (inner monologue keeping you up at night and the time lapses) are EXACTLY what Paxil got rid of for me :!: Are you still on Paxil? If so, what dose? Sounds like you should keep trying Paxil. I had insomnia and time lapses for years until Paxil. It almost completely got rid of both. Also, can I suggest something like Yoga which incorportates the breath? This seems to be the only form of relaxation that helped me.

Cynthia,

I'm not sure if Paxil does this to memory. I often have a hard time remembering what I did the day before but I don't let it bother me. My memory was poor before the Paxil.

Are you still on Paxil?
What dose?
For how long now?
