Hi,
I am suffering from 'I don't care', 'I hate myself', etc etc etc depression and some type of anxiety that keeps me in the house though I do like people and like to talk to them when I can drag myself out of the house. I really don't care; take a shower? wash my face at night--haha, eat something that requires effort? and I have dogs who are suffering from severe lack of attention. As a caveat, I also have some major health problems and no support. I don't know what to do so I am asking for some input from anyone who might read this post.
I'm on generic Wellbutrin 450mg and 40mg prozac. Not working. The wellbutrin worked like a true miracle for about four weeks and then began to fade away. I've kept taking it--tough to find a psychiatrist in my city (so I could talk to someone about other meds) who takes medicare (about 15%) though I have complete BC/BS coverage. I also don't have much money.Zoloft and prozac have been suggested. My family practice dr will prescribe most psych meds I ask for, very understanding dr.
The conundrum is that I have liver (NASH) problems, not from drinking, and Chronic Kidney Disease and both zoloft and wellbutrin can cause problems if the dosage is too high, though I haven't read what "too high" maybe. If one can take "x" amount of Zoloft (make up number 400mg) is 200 mg then considered a lower dose
Thank you
