This seems to be a combo I come back to the most. It works the same day and addresses both depression and anxiety. I have very little patience for waiting weeks for an ad to kick in when I have something that works well the same same day. The following meds are prescribed for pain but do take care of my depressed mood.
Percocet 20mg to 40 mg a day. The pills are in increments of 10 mg. Really don't have major withdrawal symptoms when I have to come off.
Neurontin. Two doses of 1200 mg each. Seems to work synergistically with the percocet.
Starbucks caffeinated coffee with mocha. I ask for extra pumps of mocha.
The mocha coffee seems to punch up the above. The above two can make me sleepy and the coffee helps quite a bit with that. Real chocolate seems to have nice effect on its own.
This cocktail addresses depression and anxiety. Also helps quite a bit with social anxiety.
In the past I found that low dose Geodon had a good effect and worked quickly. I'm talking 40 - 60 mg at bedtime. There is an initial period of fatigue that is followed by a real bounce. This med was very expensive and I don't like the idea of taking neuropletics. But the couple months I was on it I had some very good days.
