hey

Posted by sam K on October 16, 2008, at 23:25:09

Well Im doing okay these days, Im taking 300mg lithium. It doesnt really have any side effects I know of, maybe except anxiety but that comes and goes. My doctors plan is to get me on some prozac with the lithium. Ive tried prozac before and it made me verry very anxious. It releived depression verrrrry well though. hehe.
Lithium is pretty calming but I dont think it will take away the adrenaline rush prozac gives me. It frustrates me that my doctor has plans for me that I feel wont work.
I take Lamictal too, and it really makes me feel unreal, and causes paranoia. I mean it has helped but.. it really makes me crazy. Like psychotic stuff. Ive been weaning down lately and it gets worse actually at 50mg, it causes more stimulation and craziness. But overall, it really destroys my memory as well as my school performence.
Does anyone have any ideas?? Is depession treatable without antidepressants?? It seems like they all make my thoughts race really bad. Although I may be wrong. Lexapro seriously made my thoughts race bad. And the ssris seem to unleash the agoraphobic in me. If I open my front door, I feel very afraid and people might see me. Sometimes I feel like maybe just lithium, but that is probably wishful thinking.
