okay... i have tried many ssri's/snri's...and lexapro was the only one that ever worked..but one day it just quit on me!@:[[[...so i tried out antipychotics and i just felt even worse..then i tried anticonvulsants and they didnt work either..then my doctor let me try out MAOIS and ensam didnt work, i got to much anxiety, parnate gave me to much anxiety also, and nardil just drugged me up to the point where my eyeslids were always sagging....so now my shrink is taking a step back and im trying a TCA, "Amitriptyline 75mg"...and i just started taking "Lyrica 150mg" too....my diagnosis is "Agitated Depression"....
Is Amitriptyline effective?? i mean Nardil was suppose to be like the god of all drugs, but didnt even help me...so i dont see how amitriptline could work if all those others didnt
i just want to get the S@#* shocked out of me and put my brain back in to order...ps. my insurance reached its max...so everything is free until december 31 2009...
so what else do i have to take to be a canidate for ECT???
and could a TCA possibly work better then the so called "superior" MAOIS???
thanks and GOD bless you if you can give me some feedback:]
