use of antibepressants for pain control

[Guest guest]

I have take antidepressants for year for pain control and lately for

depression too. As I have come to realize that the pain will not ever be

gone and my life as I once knew it, will never be again, I have struggled

with periods of depression. I can take my pain meds as needed and sometimes

go for a few days without taking anything. If I miss my morning Paxil CR my

pain levels are much higher and my depression is horrible by late that

night. I take this one prescription drug without fail, without missing and I

can't say that about anything else I take.

Don't know if this helps but it is my experience.

Good luck and God bless,

Lexie
