Complex Ptsd And Meds

[/Journey]

New to the site...but hate playing around with RXs as well. Was diagnosed with CPTSD 3 years ago. The Topamax has been great for me I have been on it for almost a year. Titrated up to 250-300mg with no known side effects. I have side effects to a lot antidepressants. I have stuck with Prozac 80mg and go up and down added Klonopin 1mg tid or I take them at night. I watch for the triggers but it is a struggle and an feel that I am finally coming out of this major depressive episode. I make myself exercise. I'm a single parent so I have to be okay.

@/Journey have you experienced any hair loss? Or did you @Solara ?

I take Effexor and Wellbutrin. It has taken a combination for me to feel better and be able to keep functioning well.

I am just so frustrated that SSRIs and SNRIs are giving me full on side effects. my GP (who is awesome) is considering a psychiatrist (drs I dont trust) and my psychologist is wary about having me on meds with cptsd. But my too hard basket is full so Im not sure what to do. Dope is illegal here in Australia, anyway I wouldn't use it asit is a trigger.

@Kas_Can_Fly,
No, I didn't have hair loss with the Topamax.
