Medication changes
Hi I am new to this community. I have a 7yo boy who was diagnosed in end of Kindergarten (he is now in 2nd grade). He recently had a big change in his mood and attitude. He was doing well with medication alone and some behavioral modification. I am only seeing a neurologist and I am currently seeking

Effexor to pristiq switch
Has anyone switched from effexor to pristiq? I've been on such a long journey to feel relief from constant anxiety and so far nothing works. I was recently on 175mg effexor and my Dr switched me to 50mg pristiq. She had me just completely switch, no weaning. I've taken it for about 4 days now. I suddenly

Was doing so well and boom, another step back.
It started January 1 of this year. I hadn't had a panic attack in a very long time. I was eating something and out of no where my good old friend showed its ugly head again. Since then I've pretty much had every test done you can have(health anxiety) and of course they all are negative and every doctor

Getting a negative result on Amphetamine urine despite being on generic Adderall daily.
I've been treated for ADD for at least the past 10 years and prescribed Adderall ( currently taking the generic version by Prasco). I take 25 mg of Adderall XR and 10mg of immediate release mid day. I take my meds religiously. My new doctor gave me two urine test to screen for Amphetamines and BOTH came

When do you take medicine, vitamins, suppl. ? am, pm?
I've just started to switch taking my pills from morning to evening. No ms related medicine but Effexor, Vit.D, Biotin, Zinc. And I started to read about how you're supposed to take these. It's incredibly complex, some should be taken 30 min before meal, some after food because of stomach acid,... for

Antidepressant side effects
I’ve had anxiety and depression on and off for years. Was on Paxil 19 years ago... it worked . I stayed on it for two years but went off because of weight gain. I did well for about 12 years until life happened and I’ve tried about 5 antidepressants since. I stopped all because of side effects. I gave

Picky 8YO on Adderall XR needs to gain weight
Any good ideas for getting our picky eater to eat enough calories to start gaining weight? (Without meds he’s a dynamo, less so on meds, but he’s always moving, so he burns plenty of calories.). Wondering about kid-friendly shakes (think Ensure) that taste good. Don’t want to buy a bunch of something

Risks of Adding New Meds?
I'm on two different medications right now--Bupropian and Lamotrigine. I've been on them two years. Until a few months ago they worked great and Bupropian was a game changer, but now I feel like it's just not working anymore. I talked to my psychiatrist about it and he wants to add Effexor to my daily

Does adderall work ?
One difference between the drugs is how fast they work and how long they last. Adderall may work slightly faster, but Concerta lasts longer: Adderall typically works within 30 minutes and lasts for 5 to 7 hours. Adderall XR usually works within 30 minutes and lasts about 8 to 10 hours http://verifieddrugstore.com

Hi all, I am feeling very flat right now. I am not in the mood to view anyone's posts or even to feel better. Shitty, right? I know it's not the way to snap out of it. I also know that I can't just snap out of it, that I do need to coach myself and try to change my attitudes etc. etc. But at this moment

New medication- Effexor
On the first day of taking Effexor I was so dizzy, numb and I couldn't sleep. Today, on the second day - I'm having pretty bad anxiety. Should call doc or I should wait? Sometimes it's hard to determine when it's severe reaction or just side effects that will subside later.

First day on Effexor
I took Effexor for the first time today. I feel like a zombie. My head is numb. It feels like I took a high dose of tranquilizer. Did someone experienced the same thing?

Unable to ejaculate
I have great difficulty ejaculating. I feel like I'm right there then the feeling subsides. Does anyone know if Effexor XL, Wellbutrin XL or Lamotragine cause this? I have been able to orgasm in a long, long time.
