Hi to you all,
I just wanted to say that after suffering for about 5-6 yrs with severe depression, insomnia and mood swings my doctor found me a dream combo. I take 300mg Lyrica(pregabalin)in the morning before work and another 300mg at about 6pm when I get back from work. I then take 60mg of Remeron(mirtazapine) about 10.30pm, then it's lights out at 11.30 all through the night until my alarm wakes me!!. I am feeling so alive and happy. I used try cry my eyes out everyday but now when I cry it's because I feel so happy and well(hope that makes sense!). I feel totally un-depressed for the first time in years, I dont know if the med combo will poop out on me but quite frankly I dont care, I just love this feeling. If you are depressed please dont give up hope, I tried so many meds and none of them really helped me until my doctor put me on my combo of remeron & lyrica. Before this I felt suicidal and was tempted to take an overdose, I actually did not want to live anymore. If you are feelin like this please please dont ever give up tryin, If I can do it anybody can. I thought I would never feel happy again, but Im back on track, back at work and ready for any sh*t life throws at me. Good luck to you all................
