Advice on my non-existent TSH Please
The GP wants to put me on
antidepressants
. 'No thank you' I just need to know I am OK. Can anyone please advise me? Do I go private for tests, ask to see the consultant or just pretend I am feeling ok about this? I am very upset. Thank you. ☺️

Getting a Divorce
I manage my depression with
antidepressants
and anxiety medication, but I am truly feeling symptoms of depression for the first time in years. This has completely broke me down. Effects work, being a mom and I have been through so much in my life.

Feeling a bit hopeful
I've been on
antidepressants
for 27 yrs. In that time they've "pooped out" twice. The second time being last fall. I've tried four different meds since then & am currently on Zoloft & Abilify.

Gabapentin, RLS and PLMA - help re dosing
Antidepressants
can take weeks to fully kick in but what about Gabapentin? My question is, do I wait a few weeks to see how I do on this dose (900mg)? Or do I keep increasing the dose NOW until symptoms are reduced enough to provide relief, then carry on at that dose?

My Twin has passed away
The doctor isn’t very sympathetic, he just wanted up my
antidepressants
which I did but it made me feel so bad. I’m sorry for rambling just don’t know what to do. Can’t talk to my husband as he is newly diagnosed with cancer. Just want it all to stop. Thank you for reading.

Fatigue - ABI - Depression - antidepressants
Hi everyone Autumn is here. Hope you are enjoying the changing colours around us. My level of fatigue is hard to manage some 20 months after surgery even with the pacing strategies which i have to do. In geberal, I tend to get drowsy/sedated on medication. I came off the anti seizures (they had me

The recent AASM Draft Guidelines
Some don't even have much relevance to improving RLS such as
antidepressants
. If they had to list Wellbutrin (bupropion) for example this is where they should have had something between conditional for and conditional against as is shown in Https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21737767/ .

Restarting ivf process, 43yrs in July, looking for any suggestions, help, tips etc. for someone my age.
I have been on
antidepressants
for 25yrs, so also have been counter-acting raised prolactin levels with Dostinex. My AMH was 1.88ng/ml in August 2023, so likely to be much lower now. I realise ivf at 43 is pretty unlikely to work, but really want to give it one last try. Thank you everyone!

Starting Sertraline for PMDD
I'm waiting on a consultant appointment and have resisted trying
antidepressants
for quite a while. The symptoms in the week leading up to my period have made me realise I need to try something more than diet and exercise, so this has been recommended for the two weeks at the end of each cycle.

Antidepressants and EGFR
Hello allIt's my first time posting. I'm a 54 yr old female w/ stage 4 genetic CKD. My function is at 25%. My nephrologist advised I need to change my antidepressant since Cymbalta should not be taken with a function below 30%. Has anyone experienced this and if so, what did you do and what medication

Dealing with Shame & Anxiety
I’m on
antidepressants
and lamictal. I’ve been weaned off of lithium. I’m in therapy and just nothing is helping it’s so hard for me to talk to people now. It’s like my thoughts and socializing skills have completely gone away.

Incomplete Evacuation and Diarrhoea
I was diagnosed with IBS in 2020 when symptoms started, tried fodmap diet, mebeverine, linseeds, anitbiotics for suspected SIBO,
antidepressants
but no positive improvement. Recent Fecal Calprotectin was significantly raised at 361ug, but colonoscopy and biopsies returned normal.

Iron and t4/t3 update
I have also been able to come off my
antidepressants
for the first time since I had my daughter, I firmly believe my depression was thyroid linked as it went as soon as my t3 levels increased. I am not sure why I am sharing but hopefully it might help someone else!

I'm Back....
I'm so afraid of going through the process of getting on and off these
antidepressants
.....my psychiatrist is running out of ideas except to keep trying drug combinations and has suggested ECT. I'm so afraid of that.
