On combined HRT for 3 weeks and odd reactions
I have extreme tiredness to the point I am collapsing and losing my balance, my left pupil of my eye seems a little larger than the other (I had to come off
antidepressants
after a week last autumn because of the same reason and my pigment dispersion), and I cannot control my anxiety.

Struggling
I spoke to a psychiatrist and because I did really bad on
antidepressants
I am not trying a mood stabilizer lamictal. I have to start these drugs super slow because the side effects are unbearable. I am only on 12.5mg.

Vitamin and minerals
I was put on Lansoprazole to ease heartburn caused by
antidepressants
. I was using it for years. I had no idea it could be harmful. In spite of injections I am still very tired , often deep sighing and deep breathing and feel my balance is off kilter.

Multiple Brain Zaps every night for six months
Researching the phenomena, they seem to be associated mainly with withdrawal symptoms from
antidepressants
. However, I don’t and never have take any such medications. My doctor has not been any help whatsoever other than arranging a serotonin and vitamin B12 blood test that came back as normal.

Are RLS Symptoms from Antidepressants Dose-dependent? Will lowering the SSRI dosages help?
For background information, I have had RLS since I began taking
antidepressants
10 years ago for depression and anxiety. The RLS is mostly mild, with unexplained ups and downs, acute periods and then chronic but low intensity periods.

40mg citalopram
I started on 10mg citalopram due to changing
antidepressants
, increased to 20mg & I've been taking 40mg citalopram for about 6-7 weeks now. The problem I'm having is that I don't feel any benefit from the 49mg citalopram yet.

Any meds you'd recommend as genuinely helpful?
Hi, I received a diagnosis of fibro 12 days ago and have been too angry & upset to even consider what this means, other than a future of being dismissed by doctors. I shall probably have a lot of questions for you all over the coming weeks (or months!) but the first one I wanted to ask was is there anything

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend has a song called "
Antidepressants
are so so not a big deal" and i think it almost perfectly reflects why I'm so freaken opposed to more drugs.

GP Rant!
She says their isn't one unless I agree to take the
antidepressants
they are offering me. She says I'm clearly suffering from anxiety and because I choose to fix my problems with vitamins and supplements they can't help me. She says that's not how they operate!

Sedatives for air travel.
I did a little research and I see that sometimes
antidepressants
are prescribed for such situations. I don't medicate so I would rather not introduce any
antidepressants
into my person. I'm looking for something that'll instantly knock me out and keep me out for the duration of a flight.

Cognitive impairment and anhedonia after whiplash: what should I do?
I am new here. I had a whiplash in January due to a sudden and unexpected stop of the car in which I was a passenger. Since then, "I felt increasingly detached from myself, as if I was a ghost of myself just going through the motions; functioning at a lower level of conscious awareness; not fully experiencing

My latest lab results
This is my latest thyroid test. These are the things my dr tested. He told me that it looks good and he doesn’t think my anxiety is due to this. He says the TSH has stayed pretty consistent around 3 over the last year. I have been doing testosterone therapy and he wants me to back my dose down and
