Re: Another Antidepressant question

Meds do not get better .....with me! My gets toxic and the longer I'm on them

the worse I get. Docs didn't believe me until they tested me and saw with their

own eyes. I have a friend that can not take the meds your daughter is on.When

you daughter was cutting was she on any meds ?

Hi Barb,

Your daughter should be getting better everyday. I have taken

antidepressants before and I felt better with each day. Listen to your gut on

this something is wrong. I am not sure how old your daughter is but they have

warnings all over now about teenagers not being old enough to take Cymbalta.

Hi Barb,

No a bad reaction only got worse. My sister was taking Depakote and the doctors

kept saying give it more time even though my sister was having obvious

psychiatric breakdown symptoms. Finally she ended up in a lock down hospital

where they took her off the Depakote and her schizophrenia disappeared as

quickly as it came on with the Depakote. She was able to leave the mandatory 28

day stay after a week because she was fine off the drug.

Thanks for the reassurance. I pulled her off of cymbalta and they discharged

her. I'm on watch with her until she starts a day program on thursday. They

have a Much Better psychiatrist there. Hopefully We can find something that

works.
