Neurology
Hi everyone, I finally have my appointment with neurology 16th May .My gp is taking me off pregabalin and advising amitryptaline (excuse the spelling) I explained this was also used as an antidepressant so would aggravate my symptoms, he then got quite angry and said well there's nothing else you can

SNRIs for fibro treatment
I've discovered that taking a SNRI interferes with the effectiveness of a SSRI. I have been taking a SSRI 50 mg (antidepressant) for manic depression (now known as bipolar) for over 30 years. It keeps me sane. My doctor recently prescribed 4 mg of Amitripiliyn for insomnia. It didn't do anything for

Is it time to resume medication
I had a significant panic episode after not having any (of this degree) for several years. I had weaned off my antidepressant as I was doing well and just used a (very) occasional benzo - usually if I was flying somewhere. Now since last week and things are settling down, I’m feeling my mood is becoming

Don’t want to be alive, can’t be dead.
I have been on a variety of
antidepressants
for more than a year without any relief. I am on an extended leave from work because I can’t face people. I can’t check into an inpatient program because there is genuinely no one else to support my children.

Severe depression
Feeling very insecure and fearful in the last 1 week or so.. New antidepressant started 10 days ago. Can someone relate to this... or does anyone feel that way ? especially because of the Solar Eclipse that is about to happen in a day or two

my sister
She won’t take
antidepressants
(although is taking a very low dose of something, she says) but is not under any doctor or therapist not that that’s easy in the Uk.

Buprenorphine and TMS
I have been taking Buprenorphine. 5mg for about 3 months with good control about 30 minutes after taking it. I usually take it at 10. I’ll start getting some RLS symptom around 8 if I am not moving around. I don’t want to take the Bup warlier because it knocks me out and I have thing I need to do before

Time to come off Ropinerole 4 years after being on Pramepexole 7 years. What else can I try????
I hate to put chemicals in my body after years of using
antidepressants
and I always thought I'd never get off RLS medication but I'm frightened to try coming off them in case I get no sleep at all?? . What else is going to help me better than those meds?

Sertraline for mTBI
My neurologist just said there's a paper which found that sertraline can be helpful for improving the cognitive side post mTBI. I don't know the details, but my GP has put me on it (starting at half a tablet first as I reacted badly to it years ago - woke up with my first panic attack and nausea all

Do antidepressants affect fertility? Feeling low
Hey,I wondered what peoples thoughts were on
antidepressants
, and weather they affect fertility. The research online says they don't but them once website said they do. I'd hate to jeopardise getting pregnant naturally. I've been feeling so low since my last failed transfere.

Monocular Vision
I’ve been on a few different
antidepressants
and propranolol but I’ve not responded well to it, lots of side affects. I’ve now been off the medication for nearly two weeks now. I’d like to move forward with life but I’m struggling to do that.

Starting an antidepressant
I have been feeling horrible for over 70 days now since I found my ex who broke up with me last year has a boyfriend. Long story but I just started taking Pristiq. I have a long history of depression and anxiety and I have never been good about taking my meds. I was wondering if anyone had a good experience

Increased anxiety after starting antidepressant
Does anyone know the timeframe when the increased anxiety from starting antidepressant will subside? Had major depressive episode and started SSRI about 19 days ago but dr. Increased dose by double 10 days ago.

Depression
I am really struggling with depression. I am antidepressant resistent. I have tried everything. Tried ECT and magnetic therapy. Had 32 trans magnetic stimulation txs Mon-Fri in Oct and Nov. I know I will hang in there. I hang in there and then I go into a deep depression when it gets harder and harder

Anyone dealt with Antidepressants stopped working?
I've been taking 150 mg of sertraline for at least 5 years now and it was making a world of difference until the last few months. My depression is bad and feels like it going to get as bad as before I started taking sertraline. Has anyone else had this experience? I know I need to see my Dr. And I

changing from sifrol
I’m about to make an appointment with my sleep specialist . At present I am on .15 daily sifrol - I understand .5 is recommended as highest daily dose. This dose was prescribed by a neurologist who thought 1.5 was fine in fact I could increase it if needed. He mostly works with Parkinson’s patients

looking for advice on potential endometriosis
They just tell me to lose weight and try to give me
antidepressants
. I had the pill once you take all the time but my hair fell out. I had the coil but I got an infection. I don’t know what else I can do. I’m at my wits end.
