Viibryd
mike218 replied to mike218's topic in Depression - Let a WHAT Be My Fucking Umbrella? (Sod You, Perry Como)
Is Viibryd stronger then Trintellix? I need something strong with minimal Sexual side effects and up lifting. Trying to figure out what makes me tired also Trintellix, abilify or Gabapentin. I take Trintellix 20mg each morning, Gabapentin 600mg and abilify 2mg at bed time. š¤·š»āāļø -
Viibryd

Is there a reason that you stopped taking Viibryd? Did it give you any energy? On Trintellix Iām tired all the time. -
Lamictal
mike218 replied to mike218's topic in Anticonvulsants / Mood Stabilizers - Bodies A-Twitchin', Moods A-Switchin'
So itās been 6 weeks on Trintellix with no signs of relief. The Dr. started me on 20 mgs. It was a rough 2 weeks of stomach issues and feeling dizzy, still getting a little dizzy and stomach issues ,but not as bad. Iām At the 6 weeks today and the only thing I notice is that Iām tired, short tempered, hungry and donāt feel like doing anything. I know with everything going on in the world some of it should be expected, but I feel as if Iām not getting any better. Should I give it a couple more weeks and see what happens? -

Update:: lamictal has not done anything at 350mg. Iām tapering off it now and going To Trintellix if I have any sexual side effects they will add bupropion at a low dosage Iāve taken it before and it caused a rash at 300mg but didnāt at low dosage I think It was 75mg with no side effects. -

Holy crap lol thatās a lot of input. California rocket fuel = venlaflaxtine and mirtazapine. Iāll look at the rest when I can concentrate. I have a commercial driver license and any thing thatās a stimulant would make my license revoked. Iām going to give lamictal and gabapentin a little longer to see what happens. I see the dr in 3 weeks and get her opinion. Thanks for all the information!! -

I think I might try viibryd, mitzazapine or rameron. Do these have sexual side effects? Iāve also tried California rocket fuel??? -

Depressed mood, anxiety, irritability, loss of happiness, loss of interest and decreased self confidence. I have taken a MAOI I donāt remember the name it was a couple years ago. I get a allergic reaction to Wellbutrin so thatās out. Iāve taken many snriās , but never with Remeron. I canāt take any adhd meds because I get drug tested at work. Yes the only one I can remember is aripipazole. -

Lamictal
mike218 replied to mike218's topic in Anticonvulsants / Mood Stabilizers - Bodies A-Twitchin', Moods A-Switchin'
Iām taking it for bipolar/depression. Iāve been on pretty much every antidepressant The only one that worked was Effexor at 250mg, but caused sexual side effects. Iām now seeing a new Dr. who thinks I have bipolar depression and Iām now up to 325mg of lamictal and it seems to not be working the only thing itās doing is making me forget things? -

Yes still stricken with anxiety. He said the recommended dose is 50mg daily. I f I take the 50 after about a week or so I get really bad anxiety and have to take almost 8mg of Ativan to feel ok. -

Well Iāve been on PRISTIQ for almost 3 months at 25 mg with no change, still feeling like crap in morning panicked, doom and gloom and for some reason I feel guilty š¤·š»āāļø I tried 50mg for about a week and it made me feel worse. Should I just try to stick it out with 50mg or switch to viibryd? That and Paxil are the only ones I havenāt tried?? -

I tried buspar with no luck. The dr put me on 25mg of pristiq today. Hopefully it will work just as good as Effexor, without the side effects. -

@juniper29 good to know. Most of them made me very irritable. Some did nothing others made me just not feel right (detached) Allergic reaction to Wellbutrin. Effexor worked the best at 150mg but that caused bedroom problems. -

I thought he was going a little fast. Iāve been thinking about a second opinion. Maybe even more now than ever. -

Diagnosed with major depression. It's been a battle for about 3 years and nothing has worked so far, thats why he decided to go with prozac. We never discussed a target dose kinda flying blind he believes that the anxiety should go away with the increased dosage? i'm not buying it! i was thinking I should go back to 20mg and give that a chance? Sometimes i feel as if hes just throwing whatever at me and seeing how i react As of now im on 40mg prozac and 2mg of ativan twice a day
