So ive been on meds for anxiety/depresstion and to control this fnd most anti depressants that ive tried all give me so many bad side effects i heard of tms treatment this i thought is my only hope but after filling in forms and waiting they turned me down on the bases check this i had tattoos on my back

Now looks like im back to trying every anti depressant going again another christmas stuck in a horrible mind set and a body that doesnt feel right im scared i cant do anymore crying all day and dont wanna be putting my self thru another yr of tablets trying to find one that fits when they all do the same to me most of the day im wishing my heart would just stop and put me out of this suffering

There are a few natural antidepressants that don't have many side effects. St John's wort, 5htp, lmethyfolate. Have you tried these, Look them up.

I hope things look a little better for you soon. Things can get better.

Google them, are at Any drug store or Walmart or Amazon.

I was where you're at 10 years ago, in terrible pain. There is hope. you can get better. I got off pain pills , klonopin,,began walking again, quit alc. I've been on 4 Alieve for pain each day.

Pain pills cause pain and they mess up your brain. I got so miserable I was ready to make changes.

Maybe talk to your doctor or therapist about some alternatives to meds to supplement for better results. Adding exercise, meditation and other treatments may seem like nothing but they can help improve your symptoms.

I know where you are coming from. I've been treatment resistant for over 4 years. Not a day of peace. All the trials on and off, up and down doses. Its painful. I just now found a regiment that works for me. I am so grateful. I don't believe you will take as long. Drs.chuck meds. Therapists work with you. TMS is no panacea. 2 possibilities: thyroid,if low, they give you med that actually works like an antidepressant. It worked great for my depression but My thyroid is normal, so it pushed too high.

Modafinil off label is an antidepressant and works well, albeit I had to come off due to side effects.

Use this site to help support you. I wanted to end it all many times. I don't know how I kept going on feeling just like you describe.. Now I have a second chance at healing my life. My heart goes out to you.
