What To Do Next?
I am currently on a combination of
Effexor
XR
(150mg), Lexapro (10mg) and Elavil (25mg) with Ativan on the side as needed. I try to avoid taking the Ativan as much as possible. I've been through four different therapists and three psychiatrists (part of this is because I've moved).

new meds
So I did well transitioning from Effexor to Zoloft. Some bad dizziness and stuff but I managed. Now Iām kinda struggling with feeling sadā¦ mainly I think itās due to being on a low dose and getting Zoloft built up in my system. Iām just feeling sad and wishing my struggles with mental health were easier

Has anyone here had the experience of taking meds for ADHD while trying to keep blood pressure under control?
Hi, I'm new here and recently diagnosed with ADHD (inattentive type). I'm almost 40 and never took any stimulants. I also suffer from anxiety and depression and have high blood pressure (which I think is related to my anxiety). I've been taking Sertraline for depression and Hydrochlorothiazide for hypertension

Help, I need to know I'm not alone
I was on the same two medications for 24 years, effexor and trazadone, and managed my anxiety/depression/panic well my whole life. Long story short, I had a medical episode at the beginning of the year that necessitated I switch medications. I feel like I have been in hell for the last three months

changing from sifrol
Iām 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 Parkinsonās patients

Help me
I stopped taking my medication cold turkey February 2nd and by yesterday was ready to take my own life. Nobody in my life understands the severity of my illness. They just laugh and say I'm crazy. I used to be a fun loving, spontaneous individual, but now I have to plan days in advance to leave my house

Feeling isolated because of medication use
hi! i have diagnosed depression (and anxiety) and have finally found meds that help me: effexor and lithium. i am so so grateful that i have had access to treatment that has ultimately saved my life, but i still feel this extreme isolation because of being on a medication that is so incredibly stigmatized

Effexor with Wellbutrin
Iāve been struggling with increased anxiety as I begin to think about moving out of the house.

Focalin comedown
My son (11) has been on Focalin XR for about 2 months (5mg the first month - no effect, and now 10mg). We've noticed that around 7pm, he often can get super down and sad. It's not every night, but it's at least a couple times a week. Sometimes he can identify something bothering him, but other times

Trying to find some meaning in my "Golden Years"
Every day is the same as the last. I sit in a 10 ft. room with my laptop and endlessly scroll out of boredom and ennui. Nothing it seems gives me any pleasure. I used to do oil paintings and have been told I'm very talented, but I don't have any motivation to anymore. I used to play music but I no longer
