First Entry Mood
Monday, March 10, 2008 | A General Update story

Thanks to all for your welcome.

 

I am certainly not in crisis or despondent right now, but I have periods of OCD/Depression that range from mild to moderate. I've tried various medications

and find that the SSRI's make me hypomanic, Have been given Haldol, Mellaril and

Risperdal to counteract the SSRI's and they worked OK but caused weight gain and

 just general dysphoria. Psychotheraphy has largely been ineffective.

    I have very cautiously gone back on meds, am taking 25mg of Zoloft a day and 1/2mg of Xanax twice
    a day, as needed. I just have to take a very low dose of any SSRI.
