I am looking for some advice in regards to my depression. I am on 75mg of Paxil CR and Buspar. Both were prescribed for my generalized anxiety disorder. I also take 1000mg of Taurine and 500mg of Tyrosine a day to help with my anxiety. I don't know if the Tyrosine does anything for it, but I totally believe in the Taurine. Anyhow, for the past week now, I've been having a bad problem with IBS (diarrhea). I went to doctor and he said my stress was causing it. I have been taking on a larger load for the past month as my mom has a broken ankle. I was handling it fine though, so why would that be suddenly kicking me in the teeth???!!! The doc gave me Lomotil for the diarrhea. With all of this, I've also been feeling extremely depressed this past week and I don't know why...The depression is worse in the earlier part of the day, lingers, and is lessened at night. It's weird. Anyhow, today I was so depressed that when i was driving, I was crying like someone who's just lost a loved one to death! I was wailing, I felt so bad! I do have some anxiety mixed in but the depression is the most prominent. I've been on the Paxil for less than a year now, after coming off of Zoloft that I'd been on for 12 years. I am at a loss as to what to think or do. ANY SUGGESTIONS of what may be going on or what may help?
