Avatar m tn It's not time top stop going then. Therapy can't be rushed. It's also possible the therapist you chose isn't right for you. It's possible CBT isn't the right form of therapy for you -- it's the gold standard for anxiety, insofar as there is one and there really isn't, but depression can be a different can of worms.

Avatar f tn t even begin to tell you how many different AD meds I have tried. Treating depression and anxiety with medication is often a trial and error process. I have found that if at the 3rd month on a particular medication, if I am still not feeling better that it's the wrong med for me. Don't be afrade to try different ones.
649897 tn?1224098215 Light headedness, nausia, the whole nine yards, not to mention the depression and anxiety go un-checked by the failing med so that will also make you feel like garbage too. Bad news: Med changes suck bad. Good news: there are other options that your system will respond to. Regards.

Avatar m tn The first couple weeks my wife and I both noticed a big improvement with my symptom of ADD. Than all of a sudden it stopped working. I told my doctor, he changed it to Bupropion 300mg XL. Its been a week and a half since its been changed and no improvement. What happened to make it quit working? Will it start if I give it some more time?
8513688 tn?1398467158 I'm with sblythe on this one..

Sometimes there are just no alternatives.
Avatar m tn As for Buspar from a lot of online research many people have had it work for anxiety, as it is just an anxiety medication and not depression. I read hundreds of good reviews on it, so research may say something but I also take weight in what actual people have to say. Spoke with my Dr about it and she agreed that it was worth a shot, and she has had many people who have done well with it.
1176986 tn?1264917842 The Fentanyl is a strong medication and while it works great for some it may not be the medicine for you. Are you taking a break through medication with it? Talk with your doctor and explain that it is not working and see what other options are available for you to try. All of us has been through this. It is very frustrating but once you find the right medications it will have been worth it. Your metabolism has a lot to do with how well a medication may or may not work for you.
Avatar f tn Hi, not sure if im in the right forum. But im taking a medication called seroquel for my depression. Well that med makes me really constipated. I tried adding fibre, senokot and metamucil to my diet it didnt help. My doc recently prescribed Lactulose in a syrup for 15ml-30ml daily. Ive been taking it for 3 days and it hasnt helped yet.
