Need advice on changing antidepressants

Has anybody heard of any natural substances that help?

I’m on 40 right now, I’ve been on it for years, I don’t feel it’s helping, I feel my body needs something different

What dosage of Prozac are you?? 20, 40 or more? Prozac takes a bit time to work and if you on a lower dosage talk to your Dr to increase the dosage.

Hey ive been on all those. Efflexor made me suicidal Wellbutrin made it a littlw better but not where i liked it to be Then prozac makes me anger For depression i now take lexapro it help me alot

I take paraxotine and abilify to boost it. Together they have been working for me for years (as long as I remember to take them!). I found that flipping my bottles helps. I'll take them all, flip the bottle upside down, next night I take them all, flip the bottle right side up. Just keep doing that every night to remember to take them. I don't know why it helps, but it does!

I don’t recommend lexapro- I felt numb and humanless when I took it

What is making you decide to go off Prozac? (I’m on Prozac and wanting to change so I’m curious why your reason is)

A balanced diet and exercise plus sleep schedule 💕

I was also diagnosed with depression in 2012! I'm afraid I don't have medication suggestions though, the only medication that ever seemed to make a real difference was Wellbutrin, but unfortunately I suffered a full-blown psychosis episode on the medication and was advised to immediately discontinue. I've been on Prozac, Pristiq, and Viibryd (among others I can't remember) and have never noticed a significant difference in depression. I currently take an antipsychotic injection (Abilify) but do not take anything for depression. While I do not advise discontinuing medication, I do recommend looking at non-medication ways of managing your illness as well. I personally have found healthy habits and changing thinking patterns to be much more helpful in managing my depression than any medication has ever been.

Geodon works great for me!!

Take your medicine, they work but it takes time.

I have been on Cymbalta for 15 years. It has been fantastic for me. Besides just helping with depression, it helps with anxiety and pain. My doctor says that since I was on it for so long, it is not working as well as it used to. They are going to wean me off of it and start me on Wellbutrin. What did you think of it?
