My doctor started giving me
My doctor started giving me Wellbutrin about 2 years ago after a particularly trying time with the skids. I have found that it helped me alot. Good luck!
Yes my doctor prescribed
Yes my doctor prescribed Citalopram (Celexa) a year ago!! It has made quite a difference for me!! I didn't realize how bad I was feeling before I started taking it!
It was a gradual change over a 2-3 week period. I took it before bed because it was supposed to help me sleep but it didn't. I now take it at 5:00 every afternoon I don't feel drowsy or have any side effects. The doctor told me to try and take it at the same time every day for the best results and that way it becomes a habit.
Now I just wonder how long I will need to take it for and what will happen if I stop.

If I can stick my two cents in, be sure to research sexual side effects -- Paxil shut me down for two years.

I have been thinking about taking something also. My doctor retired so all I have is my gyno that I see. I wonder if she would give me a prescription? I am afraid of taking something that might make me gain a few pounds.

Many women use their gynos as their primary care physician, so I'm sure you can ask her for an Rx.

yeah...my gyno is the one who is most sensitive to this need. my primary care doctor never asks but my OBGYN even keeps notes and asks how it's going whenever i see her.

Oh thats good to hear because I think I am due to go in May so I am going to ask for something. Which prescription is the best?? And cheapest because I currently have no health insurance!!

My doc put me on Trazadone
My doc put me on Trazadone for depression (SD21) the cause. They gave me those cus I use to have horrid dreams tht I couldnt control and I would wake in a rage and tht wud be me for the night. They are from the Prozac family. Had quite severe crampin like pains every morn when I woke. nottheemomma I had the exact same thought. Why should I let tht brat make me take drugs. Taking the drugs only made me more passive to get walked all over so off to the docs I went and reduced quite quickly...I found a better mediciene. Inner strength and determination to make mt life better wiothout drugs. Hence why wen SD decided 8 weeks ago to leave yet again cus her dad took my side and was hopping to come back yet again after she made her dad cry I said OVER MY DEAD BODY. this is my house Ive had 6 years of this nightmare well im awake now and I wont let nothing giv me tht nightmare again
