			<title>Still struggling with Buspar, Amitriptyline and Guanfacine?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
It has been 22 days on Buspar 3 times a day 10 mg (total 30 mg), Amitrip (Elavil) 10 mg and Guanfacine 1mg PM. Anxiety and depression always at a low level, but still present. Chronic fatigue, body feels heavy all the time. Only sleeping 4 hours due to bad nocturnal anxiety but no more night terrors.
Not sure what to ask my pdoc for?? Increase doses, decrease doses, get off one or all or try something else? Have an appointment in two days.
Can not handle the fatigue and lack of sleep much...

I started taking Prozac 10mg for a week and already starting to feel the benefits, I called my doctor and he told me to start on 10mg and if I felt ok then to bump up to 20mg, I took my first one yesterday and was fine all day, then my husband was talking to me and it was like my brain was in a fog and went blank, he thought I was ignoring him, is this normal and when will it pass and should I go back to my 10mg seeing as I was already feeling the benefits?

			<description><![CDATA[
I read that it gets worse before it gets better. I just want to make sure its normal. I have had panic attacks before, but never as bad the one I had when I tried going somewhere since starting this medication. I had to sit down in the middle of the store floor otherwise I think I would have fainted. It made me want to cry. I feel as though I am never going to get better!

My new doc changed all my meds. I was on xanax as needed took 1/2 of 0.5mgs every morning for anxiety, Trazadone 25mg for sleep. Trazadone was upped to 75 mg but still do not help with nocturnal anxiety/nite terrors and left me a dazed zombie the next day. Ativan 1mg pm&#039;s. The Benzos worked very well but felt it was not a good path to go down. So now I am on day 5 of Elavil generic 10 mg and Guanfacine generic 1 mg 1 x a night plus Buspar generic 5mg 2x a day.

			<title>Experiences from switching from Zoloft to Celexa?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
Hi, I have been on Zoloft for over 8 weeks - 200mg for about 2 weeks. I noticed a mild improvement last week, but then I had a panic attack on Monday and have been down ever since. I was on Celexa about ten years ago and it made me feel great. I asked by pdoc if he can switch me to that, and he said he wants to give it another week. 

My question is whether anyone else has not felt better on Zoloft and then switched to Celexa and felt better?

Thanks

			<description><![CDATA[
I&#039;ve been on Fluvoxamine instant release for about 7 weeks. I was at 125 mg but doc wanted to raise to 150 mg so we switched to Fluvoxamine Extended Release tablets since I couldn&#039;t sleep at night on the instant release. Since changing, I&#039;m more irritable, agitated, and anxious. Anyone else have this reaction? Not sure if it&#039;s related to the extended release change, but that&#039;s what I feel. Thanks everyone

My psych. wants me to try Wellbutrin to help with my Depression and to give me some energy but there is two reasons I have just yet said yes to her: 1. I remember having tried it about 9yrs. ago and I remember it not really doing anything but that was so long ago and I don&#039;t remember how long I stayed on it and 2. I don&#039;t want to ditch my Celexa so if I do decide to use Wellbutrin do I have to stop the Celexa? All advice welcome!

 I&#039;ve taken many ADs for many years: Prozac, Lexapro, Welbutrin. Viibyrd etc. They all work well for between 9 months and 2 yrs. Then I experience the &#34;serotonin poop out&#34;. My Dr. says it&#039;s due to my Major Depressive Disorder aka Treatment Resistant Depression. Am so hoping...

I&#039;ve had more than one friend on Fluoxetine tell me that they had to keep going up and up and up until one day they just &#34;maxed out&#34; and it became minimally effective- I also see accounts of people on 20-40mgs that say they are doing well.

Me: I started on 10 mgs of Prozac (fluoxetine) a week ago. I have been on bupropion 300 xl with very minimal impact on my major depression for 10 weeks, so this is my doctors next step.

He says that Prozac is typically his favorite AD,...

The Celexa is more for my Anxiety than anything and it does work perfectly in treating my Celexa. I am on Lamictal for my depression which I don&#039;t think works well for some reason the Celexa does little to treat my depression. I have tried Wellbutrin, Zoloft, Prozac, Abilify, Risperdal, Seroquel, Lexapro, and currently Lamictal for my depression and they barely touch my depression... any ideas of medications that work well for major depression
