Hi everyone
I havent been on here for a while but could do with some support, I have been on Effexor since Sept last year and have gradually gone up to 375mg, have been on this dose for 4 weeks, I had a great 2 weeks just recently absolutely no anxiety or depression, felt great myself again its been a bit like this the last few month up and down, was anxiety when I first went on the meds and then alot of PMS and some deep depression, a day or 2 then lift, fine for another week or 2 then another dip. The depression scares the hell out of me because I am person that loves life and people and I truly love myself. these feeling are terrible and I do try to distract myself when they come, its really hard but I just want some stability
I saw my PDoc on Tuesday and he think before adding anything else he wants me to hang in there for another 4-6 weeks as he thinks its just taking longer because Im older then when I was last on it. I dont know, Im desperate to have some consistancy, had a great day yesterday and thought finally maybe this is the turn around then having been feeling down today and a little anxious, I did only take the 25mg of seroquel last night insyaed of the usual 50mg as I just fell alseep, am at work but pushing through.I have been on seroquel for a month to assist with sleep and dosage adjustments, I dont know maybe I need to increase the seroquel to lift me out to get some stability. Ive rang my doc again as I want to see what he thinks as I really dont like living like this.
Ive been seeing a naturopath too, on Glutamine, Magnesium and fish oil which my PDoc said were all fine. Look forward to hearing from some of you for some support X
