...to be MAID'ed . I just noticed that President Trump has now signed an Executive Order to revisit Schedule I drugs being refused to patients with PTSD, depression, etc. Love him or hate him, this is a game changer from those of us who are looking for help other than SSRI's and...

...and it takes real patience to get to a combo that feels right. Your mix sounds like it's doing some solid work for you. That combination of an SSRI, a noradrenergic antidepressant, a tricyclic, and an antipsychotic at a lower dose is pretty thoughtful—I can see why you'd stick with it if...

...depression aren't just lingering—they worsen with age because the aging brain struggles harder to rewire after that kind of chemical hijacking. SSRI/SNRI trials on top amplify tolerance issues and emotional numbing, mimicking or fueling the bipolar/BPD labels that kept the trauma cycle...

...in the “care” of Nova Scotia psychiatrists. As a result I spent 2½ years on an overdose level of clonazepam, and for six years had all of the SSRI and SNRIs, several “mood stabilizers” and several other drugs that I can’t remember pushed on me (“well, if you won’t follow my suggestions we...

I feel the best on anxiety meds, but my dr. believes the SSRI are better. Trying to find a new dr. that actually listens to me… might take some time. 🧚‍♂️

SSRI's only have around 40% effectiveness, which was discovered when a court order allowed full access to all the unpublished studies because the outcomes weren't what they wanted. A meta analysis found they are not what are hyped. Personally, I think pure anxiety meds are often the best, as...

I feel depressed as well still with Zoloft but I also feel numb, no anxiety, flashbacks, cleaning my place up more, it’s working in good ways but not my depressive state yet.

...my mind as well as constant anxiety. However, I haven't felt any benefit and instead of calming me it's made me more irritable and tense. I don't wish to take sleeping medication rather an SSRI or similar that can help me. Would anyone have any recommendations as to what has worked best for them?

This This reads like what I'd have said of my experience with how grew up and I'm on zoloft as well but it makes me feel depressive some reason. And I have cycled ssri's for so long that I can't seem to stop taking them. 😅😭

...it in my record. That is a dealbreaker for me for the reasons mentioned previously. I also struggle to go the medicinal route. I was on an SSRI for two years as a young teenager, and I feel it really made things worse. Between that and my paranoia relating to authority figures, I'm scared to...

...my depressed brain. He said that because my condition is chronic it takes time to change. He said my receptors could receive and that is why SSRI doesn’t work, trauma changes the elasticity in the brain. Never the less therapy, sport, a form of meditation and positive sexual activity with...

Dear Josep, I have been using Sertraline for 2 years, and to be honest, it doesn't always work for me either. It is a tricky one, when I am in a bad patch, I can take many things and they don't seem to help. My best advise would be to listen to your body, and if the drug is making you worse...

...believe I need to see one and thinks everything I've been experiencing is due to anxiety. I saw a Psychologist but they wanted to throw me on SSRI's right away which I do not want to take as I took them when I was younger and had really bad side effects. What I'm feeling right now is...

...in my room i went to one of best doctor in the country the meds he gave me are BD Brand Generic Name Drug Class Relafin 150mg Fluvoxamine SSRI antidepressant Repose 50mg Sertraline SSRI antidepressant Telazine 1.5mg Trifluoperazine Typical antipsychotic Leptic 2mg Clonazepam...

...in my life. But I still fear that I find no therapist at all for a very long time and I am suffering. Started pregabalin and I hope it helps. SSRI or neuroleptics don't work for me and Propranolol is only for use when needed, same as Lorazepam for extreme situations. I wrote a mail for the...

...SNRI and I was on it for 10 years. I cannot say it made me worse but definitely not better and getting off it was a nightmare. I switch to an SSRI Serotonin which I can’t say helped much either…and the side effects are also awful… thus Ketamine IVs under a doctor’s supervision. This...

...nausea and stomach discomfort. I’m planning to take a break for a week and see how it works. It feels as microdosing has helped me in the way SSRI should’ve worked. I know it’s all individual but for me no psych medication really has worked out good, often with a lot of side effects. I told...

I’ve tried dozens of medications over the years SSRI, SNRI, antiepileptics, antipsychotics, and others.. I’ve not had any great effect with any of them. In my case my nervous system has been so sensitive from trauma and muscular imbalances with weightlifting that if I’ve ever felt happier, joy...

...I could shake it off if I was deeply involved in complicated, very present situations and the life puzzles of other people. I tried SNRI, SSRI, Seratonin modulators. They all made things worse and made me sick even at low doses. Spravato was out of reach because there's a requirement of a...

So, I currently have 2 pdocs... sort of... I have the one that replaced my previous, long-term and much beloved pdoc in the city 2 hours drive away where I used to live. All my records are in that Dr's office and the replacement guy is nice enough. A few months ago, with his consent I also found...

@Sideways Thank You for exhaustive response. My meds are SSRI, but I bet on dissociation being the culprit here. Even as a child i was "head in the clouds" type of kid. Unfortunately this escapism was put to the extreme and fires up for any problem I come across. I will work on my grouding :-)

There was a moment I switched from SSRI to SNRI (now on a new type of SNRI) and I don't remember the change being that drastic. Of course, I had been on the other SSRI for a lot shorter time and I was super depressed at the time so who knows if my memory wasn't clouded at the time. I don't know...

...i feel like everything is imploding on itself. the brain zaps are getting bad already and suicidal thoughts are filling my every waking moment. i have friends and family on other medications, but they are all SSRI's rather than SNRI's. is there anything i could take or do to help get through...

I take 200mg of Pristiq (Desvenlafaxine) which is an SNRI. Not SSRI. 200mg is a high dose. I have tried to titrate down to 100mg but become teary on that dose with nothing else. A thought has been that one DXM or one and a half plus 100mg Pristiq could be a trial I took a 30mg DXM yesterday and...

Sorry you are going this through 😑. I am bit confused why you were described two different serotonin medicines at the same time. I restarted my ssri medicine and I am warned to take for example valeriana with this current one as apparently these two medicines can amplify each others impact. I...
