Hey,
This is my first post though I have frequented this website for several years...
My doc prescribed me Klonopin two and a half years ago for my PTSD/SAD/GAD/Panic, etc...I believe I have almost all of the anxiety disorders. I'm on 3mg/day. Recently he prescribed me Prozac to deal with my Major Depression and inability to function (I'm on disability). I haven't taken the Prozac yet...I am scared that it will exacberate the extreme anxiety I have...
Need advise ASAP on which would be the best SSRI for me to take as I meet with him next Tuesday. The Klonopin barely holds me and I drink everyday to compensate. Its hard to do anything at all. I try to sleep but have major nightmares...waking moments are not much better.
Anyone out there with a similiar situation who has some advise on a proper SSRI? I do not want to gain weight as that will be more depressing and I want to be able to sleep more than 5 hours a night. I am willing to quit the alcohol if there is some med that could help with the depression...please go easy on me...I am very sensitive. Thanks in advance...
