Hi,

I will prbably go down that route if the antidepressant doesn't work after 3-4 weeks. I'm pretty sure part of my depression is linked to ...

PLEASE do not try Cymbalta. It started my lovely journey wy/ LAC. It hit me 5 weeks after I started Cymbalta. On my own intuition and the information from this lovely support group, I went to my AD Dr. and asked for a change in meds last week and have not had any DA since 2 days after starting new ...

have you tried Lorazepam (Ativan)?

Hi,


Nah I just don't like benzodiazapines, they are good for short term relief of anxiety but are very dangerous long term. Right now I'm taking my chance with lexapro (escitalopram), it's been two weeks, I don't have diarrhoea altough my bowels feel a bit on ...

I have found these two url about the side effects noticed when being on these two kind of drugs.

I take generic wellbutrin & cymbalta. Neither have had affect on D or C. St John's Wart helped me in the past. I was about to try 5 HTP but my doctor decided to prescribe AD so I never tried it (was in denial about depression lol).

I guess that only SNRI (like cymbalta) are not deirectly linked ...

I take paroxetine 20mg and I have irregular heartbeat**have never had any problems with it. I understand about the "gifted with" thing**I was gifted with MC, irregular heartbeat, Fibro,osteo and rhuemitoid arthriris. My Mother was a full blown bi-polar and manic depressed person when there was no ...

My daughter suffered from depression and was on Prozac and some others. She did not feel it was helping at all and didn't want to stay on it. A pharmacologist who owns a great health food store recommended that she take 5 HTP and St. John's Wart. She said she felt such a difference and has been ...

The only thing I can suggest is avoid any type of AD that has SSRI's in it.

Unfortunatley it may have to be case of trial and error.


The problem for me is the fact that some people do not develop MC right away after taking an SSRI. It make take up to years before it starts. I'm afraid to have a ...

Have you tried Wellbutrin, (bupropion)? It was originally developed as an antidepressant, but it's frequently prescribed to treat anxiety disorder, also, because it tends to cause fewer side effects than most meds of this type. I don't have any experience taking any meds in this class - I'm just ...

Hi,


I have been gifted with microscopic colitis (MC) and general anxiety disorder. My anxiety and depression are so high right now that I need to take an anti depressant to be able to get my head off the water.

I have tried tryclic AD but I add cardiac problems on them. I have tried mianserin and ...
