Praying

I have been living through 4 months of hell! It all started when I tried to go backon my zoloft. I have been on and off zoloft several times and it has always worked great for me! I felt anxiety rearing is ugly head so I started it. Made me so worse I ended up in the er and they told me to stop taking it. even though i had only had like 1 pill. Since then i have gotten so bad I was acctaully hearing voices! I am now on zyprexa, lamictal and have only been getting worse every day! Yesturday I demanded that we try try the zoloft again and I took a tiny little zoloft like i quarter of a 25 mg, I am super sensistive to meds. I am praying to god to please let this help I cannot live this way anymore.

Thank you so much it is hard to get through every day like this, I got really mad at my pshychatrist and demanded that we tried the zoloft again! It has always worked so good for me. She has had me on two different meds since october but they have not helped. All she does when I call is tell me to pop another pill, so tired of this. I should not have to live this way!Praying that zoloft has a good effect on me and brings me out of the hell like it has before! Thank you again for your response!

Kitty, I'm not sure if you read my response to you in my thread that you responded to, so I copied it and am going to paste it here.

I hope your zoloft starts working for you again, it's hard to find another med when you have one that has always worked so well for you. I had the same problem when I tried to go back on it so I stopped. A month later I tried again, and had no trouble at all. Here, it was the generic brand that I got the first time, it had something in the fillers that didn't agree with me AT ALL, so now I have the pharmacy only fill my prescription with a certain manufacturer.

Hope this helps you a bit.

I totally believe that there are some "quacks" out there that are totally overmedicating alot of people. 

if you go to 5 diff. doctors, they will all tell you something different.  you have to be your own advocate and know what's best for YOU.  i tried lexapro and zoloft in the past and they both made me feel so not myself i couldn't stand it.  i told my doc that i don't care how long it is supposed to take to change my chemistry or whatever, i'm not going to do it!  i am not willing to feel way worse before i feel better!  i mean if it's making me feel this bad, then how can it be good for me??  i think antidepressants are so overprescribed nowadays.  it's the "magical cure" but i hear SOOO many people say that it makes them feel so bad or that they have to take 2 or 3 of them to work.  i have a friend on a high dosage of zoloft who is a nurse and she is the most depressed person i know.  it's sad. 

i would say to only try once drug at a time.  you can put too many prescription drugs in your body.  that's why so many people are overdosing on them everyday.  take care of yourself and if you are not comfortable with your doctor, please find a new one.  i mean all doctors don't know all or are looking out for your best interest.  only YOU can do that.  :)
