No I don't have an eating disorder. About 5 years ago I packed on 35 lbs with Celexa and have not taken it off. SSRIs made me very happy for many, many years until they started bothering my bladder (frequent urination, and bladder irritation). Lexapro was the worst as far as bladder pain and irritation. I went to a urologist and she said she does see this a lot and didn't know if it was due to filler ingrediants or receptors in the bladder, etc.
But, when I don't take the SSRIs or SNRIs I don't have any bladder problems. So something about the drugs that effect those serotonin receptors physically hurts me.
I've had pretty good luck with Seroquel 50mg for sleep. It also helps a little with my depression. But it would be great to get a little more help with my depression.
After a few days on Geodon, I don't like it. It made my heart do weird things - very scary.
My pdoc did mention parnate - but isn't parnate an MAOI? Doesn't that mean I will have to watch what I eat and drink?
I know I shouldn't take the phentermine diet pills because after a few days they really depress me.
It would be nice to get and AD that could help me with appetite and mood.
