Hi, I've been seeing a general doc for the past 5 yrs. for depression/anxiety. I feel that she absolutly has no idea of what she is talking about. She's tried me on several med's such as Paxil, Wellbutrin, Buspar, and now Effexor. The Wellbutrin, and Buspar both wigged me out BIG time. Paxil worked pretty good for awhile but then I got really weepy. Effexor seemes to be adding more irritability, depressed mood, flat affect...I could go on and on. OF course I'm only on 75mg once dly, but when I tried to stop taking it I expierienced the shock sensations and popping noises. Anyway I feel that I would benefit greatly from seeing a pdoc and my current doc cant even give me a good referrel. Where do I even start and what should I be prepared to say when I see them for the first time? I'd appreciate any input! SORRY soooooo long....
