I had a terrible reaction to Remeron, which I took every day as directed, It gave me such intense headaches and dizziness I thought I was having a stroke, these side-effects did not go away. When I was working my part of my job was to devise supplemental nutrition plans for the mentally handicapped clients I supported.
Now that I am not employed due to my depression I can't afford most supplements certainly not on a regular basis. Can everyone afford to see a naturopath a nutritionist.. Please.
I am lucky my medication is paid for, for many people it is not. I don't think I'm alone in that here either. No my current prescriptions are not working for me, but I'm not permitted to see another doctor.Scoper I said this once before but I think it needs to be said again, having anti-depressants not work is NOT a character flaw, its a matter of chemistry and having all options available, which is something we can't all take for granted.
I'm surprised that if your depression has been taken care of you can't be more empathetic toward others, especially when you are using a board created for the discussion of medication (discussion on anything must include pro's and cons or it is not a discussion) to say you are tired of hearing about that very subject. I wonder if you went to a web-site devoted to vegetarians if you would get tired of hearing people talk about vegetables.
