Another one of those days
Depression really sucks! I’ve been on so many meds and now I’m going to try Pristiq. I’ve been on Effexor for a few years. It gave me asthesia. I know I’ve got so many things to be grateful for. I have a loving daughter, her grandparents are such a huge support. Today I took my daughter to the dermatologist

Started a new job today.
After 3 months of not working I started a new job today. I quit my old job after having severe anxiety and quitting out of no where. After getting my meds figured out I’m starting to feel a bit better. I honestly don’t feel 100% ready to work but I have no choice. I have so many bills and rent to pay

Quetiapine
Saw my doc yesterday because I was feeling that my Effexor was no longer working and my depression was getting worse. He upped my dosage and also put me on 25mg of Quetiapine. Has anyone else ever been on this? Did it help? How did it make you feel? Any side effects? Oh and he recommend I see a psych

3rd week on Effexor
So, I’ve been on Effexor for just a bit over 3 weeks now. Things are slowly starting to come back together in my life after a few months of horrible depression. But my anxiety is still really bad. I’ve been prescribed Xanax to help but I’m so scared that I’ll become dependent of it. And I know that

Adderall & Adderall XR
I have been taking Adderall 30 mg, 2 in the am & 1 at noon for years. In November of last year, I went on Medicaid because I am disabled (I have Rheumatoid arthritis, among other things). Medicaid won't pay for my Adderall nor my opioid painkillers. When I explained my problem to my psychiatrist,

Anyone else taking this for depression? Is it helping? (sorry if I spelled it wrong)

Help...
Most recently I’ve was
Effexor
XR
. I tapered off over about 2 months time and have been off about 5 weeks now. It had been awful. I no longer have the withdrawal symptoms, my anxiety is just back full swing. I have constant racing thought.

Figuring out if Effexor is right for me...
Needing a little advice. I’ve been in Effexor for 2 weeks after having a horrible time on Prozac. I was on Prozac for a month and a half and got extremely depressed and suicidal. My doctor started me on Effexor and my depression went away right away. My anxiety has been horrible though. And today was

Scrambled
I have a 6 year old boy with ADHD and ODD. He takes focalin xr and it has helped him a lot. I’ve noticed though that when it’s out of his system, he really has trouble communicating. For example, I could ask him a question and his answer will have absolutely nothing to do with what I asked. He sometimes

So much depression in waves
I was on Effexor for ten years. Went off it slowly with doctor advice and have been officially clean of it for 5 months now. The first couple months were horrible, but I still get these feelings in waves. Somedays I think I will be over it cause I have two or three good days in a row, but then it hits

Hey guys. I haven’t written on here since I stopped taking Prozac because it was making me a mess of emotions. I went to my doctor after being on Prozac for a month and a half. I was suicidal and done with everything. Nothing made me happy. Nothing. I didn’t want to look for a new job. I didn’t want

Enough is enough
So I went to the doctor today because after a seemingly good day with my wife and daughter yesterday I woke at 1 to a panic attack I decided enough is enough and went to see my doctor. So far he is has increased my dosage of Effexor 2 125 and has prescribed me lorazepam.05 for any future anxiety attacks

I can’t do this.
Things have just been getting worse and worse. I’ve been on fluoxetine for over a month now and i feel awful. I’m suicidal, shaking and uncontrollably crying. I never felt this bad before these meds. I went to the doctor today and she changed my meds to Effexor. I don’t want to be on meds anymore.
