Hi folks!
I am pretty discouraged right now.
I have been on many antidepressants since 2012 and NONE worked!
I have been on:
Lexapro
Wellbutrin
Remeron
Stablon
Valdoxan
Memantine (no antidepressant)
Ritalin (no antidepressant)
Anafranil (could not tolerate side effects)Currently I am on Cymbalta 60mg. I started with cymbalta 11 days ago. Directly on the first day I had the impression that I felt better!
But around day 7 I started to feel depressed again. Then I increased to 60mg and don't notice much. I am depressed again.
I now worry that cymbalta also might not work.What do I do then?
I am running out of options.I was thinking about amitritypline but since I could not tolerate the anticholinergic side effects of anafranil (digestion problems, dry mouth, racing heart) I doubt that amitriptyline would be much better.
Do you have any ideas or suggestions?
I also have adhd. Ritalin doesn't work. I wanted to try adderall but my doctor is against it he said cymbalta + adderall is too risky because of serotonin syndrome. :(
Things I have:
depression (lethargy,sadness,menlancholy)
ocd
GAD
