Hi everyone,
I have finally managed to get an emergency appointment with my psychiatrist for Thursday (I'd have preferred much sooner but that's the next available one he had)!
From the advice I have had here I think I will ask about a low dose of an antipsychotic (for my excessive anxiety and feelings of despair) combined with an antidepressant. Trouble is I don't know which antidepressant to ask to try. I think I need something quite activating - as I have low motivation and am completely disinterested in day-to-day life. I've also got zero motivation.
Could anyone recommend a suitable antidepressant that's quite 'activating' and energising, yet will be safe to take with an antipsychotic such as Zyprexa, Risperidone or Seroquel?
Thank you for your help!
