Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI've been through years of therapy, an RTC, a wilderness program, countless meds, & at least 3 psychiatrists, but none of that matters. I believe we are all inherently good and everything happens for a reason, thus sorting out this mess of mine will be so beneficial in the end :)
Treatments
- Celexa Not Working
- it didn't do much for me & i made the mistake of going off of it cold-turkey, which made me vomit every 5 minutes.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
- I felt that DBT was a better fit for me, but CBT is the most common mode of treatment, it seems.
- Cymbalta Not Working
- Bad side effects makes it really impossible to take.
- Effexor Not Working
- not liking the memory loss, reactiveness, & accentuation of anxiety. i'm now just starting to taper off of it.
