Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Ive had a really bad day today....I was prescribed desipramine 9 days ago (50mg)and it was horrible the first week and then i was doing a bit better and then my doc upped the dose to 100 mg and Ive been depressed/panic attacks since then. Im wondering which drug is a good one to try because Im going through hell on this one. Im also wondering if anyone else has had this experience or a similar one.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
I went off of the drug 2 days ago. I'm happy, alert, have my pleasures and memory back. Don't ask me what's going on. Either I'm just naturally OK or I still have a bit of the meds in my system. I don't know, All I know is I feel better off than on and my blood pressure is down, which is a relief in itself! I'm sure there are good meds out there but everything has side effects and if you're feeling "horrible" you should talk to your Dr. or find another one who will listen.
