Feeling low and sad and lonely for family.
Depression creeping in on me again. As bad as it was in 1994 except now I don't have my parents to comfort me (talk to). I have been on the same antidepressant since then, sertraline, and I've tried ability but that did nothing. I also have agoraphobia and IBS and I just want to stay in bed, asleep.

Anxiety but not depression?
Anxiety - like tiny quick blasts of ice water - courses through me at times. Still, I am active (short walks daily, playing music, seeing people) and don’t feel “blue” except on rare and appropriate occasion. But my rheumatologist and GP are insistent that I take an antidepressant. 25 mg of Zoloft for

I am tired of feeling exhausted due to anxiety and I feel like I do not fit in anywhere
So I started taking
antidepressants
and in the beginning I felt much better and I even stopped feeling like a piece of garbage and having negative thoughts. But then I had to change my medicine because of side effects and my anxiety kinda got back and now I don’t really feel well again.

Oxazepam withdrawal and Tapering
I have been taking a low dose for twenty years and they have been very helpful in my debilitating anxiety, now they want me to take
antidepressants
instead . Starting withdrawal at the same time as starting a new drug is very very hard .

Suddenly Hyperthyroid again
For a month and a half they kept saying I just had anxiety and threw
antidepressants
at me (which I only took 2 days of). Only until I rapidly lost weight did they take me serious. They just put me on 100mcgs but I feel slightly cold now. I'm just 1 week into that.

Anxiety related to Switching medication
I’ve tried many types of
antidepressants
over the years and I’m coming to terms with the fact that I will always have highs and really low low’s. Currently I’ve been on lamotrigine and with starting the trazadone two weeks ago I’m experiencing extreme nausea and migraines.

Reading Sci-Fi as an antidepressant & anti-anxiety tool (i.e. The Stormlight Archives)
Does anyone on here do this, as well? Would love to discuss favorite authors and/or books. I’ve been a book lover for almost 60 years. It has always been my favorite activity (besides interacting with my kids). About ten years ago, I found an e library and haven’t been to a ‘real’ one or read a ‘real

Zoloft causing heart rhythm issues
Has anyone ever had Zoloft cause afib? I read online that there have been some people that have experienced afib with Zoloft. I can’t find if it goes away or requires coming off the drug. I know starting a new antidepressant can cause heart palpitations in some. I just wondered how I need to prepare

How best do I help my son?
Hello, I'm new here. Eight months ago our 30 year old son who has Aspergers came off his antidepressant (tapered too quickly by his psychiatrist). He lives with my husband (his dad) and me. At first he was doing OK, but a couple weeks after being completely off the med he started having intrusive thoughts

My life
I’ve been thinking about trying
antidepressants
from my doctor because it’s starting to get too much and I don’t know how I’m supposed to live like this. I start university soon and the stresses of that have impacted me really badly.

Another direction?
I've tried 2
antidepressants
in the past with horrendous side effects, I'm not willing to try another! But since blood tests and a brain scan have come back ok, what other route can I take??

Does it actually get better? I constantly need reassurance.

Abilify and weight gain
I am on an antidepressant for my depression, and then added Abilify last year which has helped with the extremes I feel in anger and frustration, and also the depths of despair. I like the effects of Ability as a mood stabilizer, but I started gaining unwanted weight. Anyone have a suggestion for

Tinnitus sufferer
I have tried
antidepressants
and anti anxiety pills, but neither gets to the core of the issue. I don’t seem to be habituating.
