Okay needing help on trying to find the right depression medication for me. Obviously doctor finds it but maybe I can suggest something. I have tried celexa (wasn’t strong enough), Prozac (made me even mode suicidal), Zoloft (didn’t change how I felt), venlafaxine (keeps me up at night everytime I take it). I take bipolar medication but it doesn’t do much for the depression part. Can anyone suggest something they have taken that works well for them and is good for depression AND anxiety?



You’ll have to find something that is pregnancy safe. What does your OB suggest?
I have a family member who takes Wellbutrin and she’s has recommended it to me before to ask about.
I would try Zoloft again and ask for a higher dose. It really should be helping with depression :/. I'm sorry all of these didn't work out for you, you must be worried.
Zoloft i was on 10 then 20 mgs and 2 mgs of xanax helps me! Xanax only when i need it.
I take lexqpro, Wellbutrin and clonazepam for onset’s & it is literally the best combo for me.
@buntaine maybe you should talk to them about upping it and maybe itd work better for you?
@elliotsmum, I’ve heard about that one. A lot of people took that while I was staying in an inpatient center. I’ll make sure to ask her about it
I take Wellbutrin for depression and anxiety. It works pretty good for me. Maybe ask your doctor about it.
@momma2twinies, I think it was 10 mg. I took it back when I was 16 so she gave me a pretty low dose lol
What doseage of Celexa did you take? I took 10mg and she upped me to 20mg.
@1xmom, no I have not. What type of medication is it?
@buntaine sorry didn't realize its the name brand of venlafaxine
