I'm back on prozac your run of the mill depression thing. Well I was but I've left it back home again. I took it for a year or so, felt numb. Ditched it, my moods kicked off again. can't win.

I've been moving away from meds in the past few years. There are too many side-effects and I have tried just about all of them.

Learning to control your thinking is far more productive than any chemicals that I could ingest.

i tried to control my thinking. it worked in getting me out of serious depression for a year or two but it crept it's way back into my life.

Medication has been the best thing that has happened to me in years. Ive tried many, but zoloft has worked the best. It made me able to realize what being content felt like.

i tried many many different anti-depressants over many years and i could handle the side effects.....then as a last ditch effort i tried remeron, the first few days i felt like shit and then slowly the side effects wore off, ive been on it for two years now and i credit it for saving my life....i was as bad as you can get, hopitalized and everything....now im a functioning member of society.....i still have really bad days [like today] but i have more good days than bad.....give it a shot hun.....lots of luck to you

I take effexor. It seems to be helping.

thats funny because i say the same all the time i wish theyd make vicodan a antidepressant it makes me happy im onit right now lol!

Can't help you much. I'm back on Wellbutrin and doing fine. You can take a look at my profile and see everything else I've tried. It's almost laughable.

i was on welbutrin---worked for awhile then became a roller coaster of emotions---more then it should've been.

i'm on zoloft now---i like it. it helps me be more positive.

im on too damn many Cymbalta, welbutrin & depakote for A/D.
Then for other things flexerel, firoinol, darvocet,donaltol, 2 o 3 other things i cant remember

Wellbutrin and Klonopin

I know what you mean, I fought against taking meds for a while too! Currently I am taking Citalopram for depression along with Propranolol for anxiety, they appear to work well together. I had a bad stomach for about 2 days and did feel a bit emotionally worse for about 2 weeks but after that, I feel they definitely help. I hope you can get the right medication for you.

None

I am back onthe Citalopram as well, they do take time to settle but after a few weeks they work for me

I take remeron. Like the other reply about remeron, it is hard to get past the first few weeks. It has really helped me. I was on zoloft for two years about 6 years ago. It worked faily well, but the remeron has done a little more for me.
Good luck.

I am on lithium, paxil, clonazepam, and trazedone. It's a strange cocktail, but it works for me. That does not mean I don't have depression. It lowers the highs and allievates somewhat the symptoms of depression.
