I don't feel like my anti depression meds are working anymore. Ive been taking zoloft for a year and a half and it was working so well until after I had my son. My doctor increased my dose and I just feel worse. Has this ever happened to anyone. I hate just feeling like this everyday.
Thank you. I'm going to make an appointment tomorrow. I switched family practices and doctors so I'm nervous about them being able to help. I just feel like it'll take months to get it right and I just hope they show the same effort my last doctor did with finding something that works for me.
It might be time to look in to switching medications. I spent most of my teen years on medications and every so often had to switch. The positive effects can fade off for some people after so long. When it comes to medications to help depression or anxiety it can be quite a mix and matxh experience for some people. For me personally i had an awful experience with zoloft and havent tried it since. Celexa is another one ive tried that was crappy but works great for other people. My experience with Wellbutrin (bupropion) sohnds very similar to this, it did wonders for me for about a year and a half and then when i had my son i felt so much worse, and even worse after a dosage increase, i ended up just not taking it anymore and have been medication free since then as i felt i was becoming worse while on them.
I wish you luck in your journey! Hopefully a dosage adjustment or medication switch can help you find peace.
Thank you. I'm so stressed about it because I hate that it's a guessing game. Wellbutrin made me so sick every single day. I couldn't keep anything down and celexa didnt do anything for me at all. I hate that it can wear off. I had no idea. I just wanna feel like myself again.
@cjohnston see thats what celexa did for me. I couldnt eat for days and id get extremely dizzy and itchy. Unfortunately its a tough guessing game but worth it once you find the right combo. Good luck mama!
Yup nothin works for me makes me worse
