-is a circulating fan on low setting. To reduce me from concentrating on high trebly notes cause by motor, I place a very large pillow placed just this side of fan to act as a muffle. I especially found this useful at drowning out the ringing noise that resulted while I was taking Wellbutrin (bupropion).
I'll keep you busy in the future with questions that I find you are helpful with-I just don't get much time on the computer as I would like.
An update to anyone interested: Stopped taking 250mg divalproex sodium about a week ago due to hair loss. Hairstylist found the problem whilst trimming hair-I found the problem clogging the shower drain. I was taking 40mg Celexa and now take 2.5mg Lexapro. Was going through some stress that I wasn't handling well and found myself craving tobacco, as in wanting to smoke a pipe (strange, as I do not smoke and never have smoked tobacco, though do like the smell of a good tobacco burning.) I was also drinking more alcohol to relax, more than the usual small amount of homemade brew of wine or beer. The 2.5mg escitolpram causes more fatigue than the 40mg citalopram for me, and more sexual dysfunction, but otherwise it is helping and I am sleeping better. Last year I took 5mg and 10mg of Lexapro for roughly nine months. To counteract the lethargy Wellbutrin was added to it-helpful combination that, but not affordable. Now, SJW is all I need to help reduce the fatigue.
P.S. You don't knee jerk so much-I'm just too sensitive.
Regards! Glad to see you back : )
