In reply to Starting Emsam This Sunday - Probably, posted by bulldog2 on May 12, 2006, at 8:19:58
Stay hopeful that emsam will work. I have been fighting this beast for 20+ years and I've tried every class of AD out there. The only one that works for me is Parnate, which is an MAOi. If nothing else has given you good relief, maybe this will. I also suffer from anxiety and have been told I'm slightly bipolar 2, although other docs have said not bipolar 2.
Regardless, the maoi's are a savior for some of us. I'll be praying the emsam works for you. It sucks feeling like you don't get the same things out of life as others. I think that quite often myself. I've done well, but it's been a constant struggle and I am sure I would have gone farther without the depression beast tied to my back.
Please keep us posted and good luck,
Kim
