Avatar m tn Unintentional weight loss alone can be attributed to Cancer, AIDS, Depression, chronic diarrhea, medication, eating disorders, thyroid issues, infection, malnutrition, among others. To determine the underlying cause, nutritional assessment and diagnostic tests such as complete blood work-up may need to be done. A referral to a gastroenterologist for your bowel movement inconsistencies may also help.
1041243 tn?1375230520 I have ocd, gad, and moderate depression (all have been formally diagnosed). A week ago my psychiatrist stopped my 200 mgs of zoloft and started me on luvox 50 mgs a day for the first two weeks then 100 mgs a day there after. A couple days later I started expiriencing major withdrawal symptoms, severe anxiety and panic (more so than usual), insomnia, and some slight agoraphobia (I don't like to leave the house, but I will if I need too) and even stronger ocd symptoms.
Avatar f tn There are a variety of kinds of bipolar and with some the depressive aspects are more evident. Lamictal and Abilify are generally a good combination of medications so they should be working. I'm not sure whether the anxiety is anxiety disorder or caused by the medication. I know some medications can cause nervousness or phobia on occassion. Abilify and Zyprexa did that to me but that's not that common but within the realm of possibilities.
Avatar f tn I am currently looking for a new depression medication. I need some info on something that is NOT a SSRI, a hormone, and is not zoloft, celexa, or prozac......also something that does not contain salicylic acid aka aspirin. If anyone can help I would appreciate the help.
Avatar m tn He was very good and after a couple of meetings he prescribed me with medication for what he called a chemical imbalance in my brain that caused depression. The meds worked and I definitely wasn't as sad most of the time. So for seven years I've taken meds. More recently I've started to feel, emotionless and even angry (on the inside). Im not suicidal like I was in middle school, but I definitely don't feel good.
Avatar m tn If you are taking medication for depression does that make your system take longer to ejaculate and also make it harder to gain an erection?
1394262 tn?1369625192 Hi anyone taking anxiety medication & trying to conceive? I am trying to conceive & am dealing with my anxiety issue at the same time. I am thinking if I should see a psychiatrist for help. I will appreciate it if you could share with me if you are suffering from any side effect from anxiety medication or not. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Hi there, Simply put, too many meds forn anyone to follow the interactions and issues they may all cause. Particularly when some of them are taken as needed, ie irregularly. I'd stick every one of them in a bag and go see your specialist. A psychiatrist is also a GP although prefers not to practice as such but they would certainly be able to tell you which ones to stop and so on. The range of issues you list are not all depression symptoms by any measure.
Avatar f tn How do you know when you need help? After all, as you age, you may have to face problems that could cause anyone to feel depressed. Perhaps you are dealing with the death of a loved one or friend. Maybe you are having a tough time getting used to retirement, and you feel lonely. Possibly, you have a chronic illness. Or, you might feel like you have lost control over your life. After a period of feeling sad, older people usually adjust and regain their emotional balance.
Avatar f tn Im on medication for depression and anxiety. Also occasionally I have a sedative in case I go bizzercerz. Would that hurt my child more than stress would?
Avatar f tn It depends on which medication, there are some that are safe. Ive been having issues with it, because ive already taken all the ones that are safe at one point and there are very few that are safe.
Avatar n tn Hi, I was diagnosed with bipolar depression in March. I was prescribed Lamictal and Klonopin to start out. Two weeks later, after an alcohol related suicide attempt, I was put on Wellbutrin for depression. I take 200mg twice a day. I take 150mg of Lamictal, I take 1 mg of Ativan as needed and was recently put on Busbar (starting out with 5mg twice a day and working my way to 10mgs twice a day). I have had severe anxiety and panic attacks for years now, which is due to a laundry list of things.
Avatar f tn This might be a bit lengthy, but here goes. Depression, lack of desire for previously enjoyable activities, anxiety-especially in social situations, insomnia, migraines, numbed emotions, unfounded fear, disturbing dreams, short term memory lapses, and difficulty concentrating. Thee are prolly a couple more, but these are the most bothersome.
2041909 tn?1329936033 My doctor has agreed that it is something that should be checked out more than once. I am on the list to be seen by a neurologist and psychiatrist after 20 years of depression as conuselling and medication have never been that benificial to me.
Avatar f tn Have you also had a history of depression? Have you reached out for help through counseling? In my experience with anxiety and depression, I initially felt very isolated and did not believe anyone could understand what I was experiencing. Once I sought help, I improved greatlyand begun to understand what exactly I was going through...just remember that you are not alone with this.
19413498 tn?1477669741 When they bill our sessions to my insurance, do they have to list an issue im seeing them for? Like if they list depression, will it go on my medical record that i have depression?
Avatar f tn Are there ANY anxiety/depression meds that are allowed to take during pregnancy?
Avatar f tn What medication are you on and why was your thyroid removed?
Avatar f tn does anyone know anything about celexa? for depression I have been on wellbution 300 mg lexapro paxil ... i can't find anything that continues to work for my depression. It seems to work for a little while and then stops. Or maybe it's just me? my diagnosis is bipolar 2 although sometimes I think it's bipolar1 with depression. I never have any energy and i feel trapped in my house. I am very antisocial. I don't want to be. I just cant help it .
676032 tn?1315674063 m sure they put you on Synthroid or other medication which gets your thyroid back to normal within 3 months. So, if depression were a symptom, it would be gone by now. It would help if we knew what kind of intrusive thoughts you are having. With depression there are many, sadness, loneliness, anger, lack of ambition, tiredness, insomnia, crying for no apparent reason, suicide, lost interest in things you used to enjoy, feeling hopeless, and worthless.
Avatar f tn the best way would be to treat the depression by talking to a councillor and take meds for the svt, you cant take medication for depression because the meds can cause irregular heart rythm and this wouldnt be good to mix with heart problems, you should be looking into loosing weight if you're diabetic because you are more at risk of heart disease, good luck
