july 2013 my daughther called me (because im working overseas) that shes feeling sad and crying without any reason, and dont even remember any happy moments in her life so we decide to seek a psychiatrist. the dr gave her metarzipine taking that medication for almost six months. but still sometimes asking me why is it sometimes i still feel sad. at the point that the medication is not working. so we decided to go to another dr. and prescribed her with imipramine (feb up to the present july 2014) and keep on telling me its not working at all im still feel depressed. but if you look at her she had a normal life going out with friends by herself going to school she didnt experience the way with clinical depprecive patient had isolating there self etc. just she always tell me im not happy and sometimes there is mild anxiety attack. but last may 2014 so i decided to come home and seek another psychiartrist and prescribed her ssri. and ask to stop taking imipramine. (abruptly) dr said try it in 3 days every med if you feel you cant tolerate or if you feel its not right for you try the other med 1 escitalopram (felis s) 2. fluoxetine (motivest) 3.sertraline (exulten) 4. seroxat 5. pristiq. the doctor said start with no 1. if yoou feel anything discomport try the next one . so she try it for 3 days but numbness and tremor is present. and she feel something wrong until we reached theno. 4 serostat so we decide not to buy the pristiq any more. i called the dr but i need to wait for 2 weeks to have another appointment, so i ask her which drug you are comportabe with she said imipramine so we decided to go back to the dr who prescribed imipramine the starting to increase the dose 2 tab 3x aday but that is the first time i saw my daughter sleeping more and and lazy to go to skul and she cant focus as if feeling flat so the dr decide to decrease the dose 1-1-2 much better now but still she is complaining the med is not working, why is it i feel sad im taking medication for 1 year . i ask her in 100% how many percent do you think the med works she said 10% .do you thi i dont know what to do would like to ask for you advice. jes
