Since I have been 12 I have had problems. I was on ativan at 12, lithium at 13, prozac at 16, celexa, paxil, wellbutrin, effexor imipramine, methylphenidate (rittalin) and it seems I have tried all kinds of medication. I am 28 now and I am still tired all the time, NO motivation, I cannot clean my house or get my daughter to school on time. I have never had a job longer than a few months at a time. I still am unable to care about anything responsible at all. I make appointments that I don't keep or even remember and since I started EffexorXR and WellbutrinSR together 6 months ago I have gone from a size 7 to 16!!!!!! I guess it has helped a little bit because now I have about a day and a half in an average week that I am feeling as "normal" as I ever have but my life is really screwed up. When I talk to therapists ( I have tried several) they tell me that it is just depression or they think nothing is wrong with me at all and I just need to "stop worrying" Help!!! I want to be a good mom and wife and hold down a job. Can anyone please give me some insight that may help me find where to turn????
