Yesterday was the first day I didn't even think about taking my second Xanax dose because I didn't need it. That is ASTOUNDING.. usually I am watching the clock to put dose two down my throat. So not only is my depression gone as of yesterday (acknowledging it may return in some form) but my anxiety has reduced.
Wow! I slept well too, except that I woke up halfway through the night to take another Ambien. I need to call my insurance and ask if Ambien CR or Lunesta are covered. Dalmane is an easy option that's already covered (to me, it feels like a longer acting temazepam); but I want to present my MD with several options.
I can't say this is all the TRT because today will only be day 3, but I am giving it high marks. Or my own brain poor ones for being so foolish as to make the placebo effect seem this real I dunno :-)
Enjoying the good days as they come... I encourage all men who've failed more than 3 antidepressants to have your testosterone levels checked.

That's fantastic but still think the females also should do same check hormones. I'm hoping that this is your miracle cure and sure could be. Phillipa

Keep it coming :-)
I am liking my low dose testosterone, too. It helps in a palpable way.
I think Phillipa and you are spot on about the hormones.

It seems you're doing well Floatingbridge, nice to know. I've read about hormones being a factor in depression before but I didn't realize it could be so useful.
