So today represents 6 weeks for me on riluzole.
It's quite hard to tell how well its doing, mainly because I've binge drank for 5 of the 6 weekends (estimate 12 pints on Saturday night) and this makes my depression and particularly (my anxiety) worse for about a week later!
I'm bipolar, so wondering whether alcohol would potentially stop riluzole from working and I haven't given it a fair trial? Maybe I should have a few weeks off the drink?
Other reason I cant gauge its effectiveness is I've been taking weekly ketamine for the last 3 weeks. Might have a break from that and see where I'm at too.
