    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have recently, in the last month been diagnosed with depression. Although not severe at this point, I am still trying to find a course of treatment that works for me.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Working / Worked
      Just returned to this treatment.
      Paxil Not Working
      Paxil was not an effective treatment for me.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      Never give up on this.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Prozac worked for a while, but seemingly became ineffective. I am needing a more agressive treatment at this point.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      You know what to do. It's the doing it part that makes it difficult.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Never give up on this.
      Wellbutrin Considering
      This is the next step. My doctor will administer Wellbutrin with the Lexapro.
      Zoloft Not Working
      Didn't work for me.
    • Close Migraine Headaches

      I suffer from migraines. They do not have a pattern, but are debilitating to say the least. They get worse and worse it seems.

      Treatments

      Caffeine Working / Worked
      indifferent remedy
      Imitrex Not Working
      allergic
      Naproxen Somewhat Helpful
      does seem to help if i take it at the right time
      Topamax Working / Worked
      has helped with frequency
      Zomig Too Soon to Tell
      taken once
    • Open Anxiety

      I have suffered with anxiety for at least the last 6 years. Probably longer and didn't know what I was dealing with.

      Treatments

      Atarax Working / Worked
      Started this recently b/c my anxiety keeps me from sleeping which of course exacerbates all of your daytime struggles with anxiety. It has been very helpful to calm me so that I can try to rest.
      Lexapro Working / Worked
      My doctor recently put me back on lexapro. Took me off of prozac.
      Paxil Not Working
      Did not seem helpful.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      PMA!!!
      Zoloft Not Working
      Did not work after a while. My "roller coaster" sensation in my chest returned.
