My depression is getting outta control and I believe it’s some of the meds I’m on but idk which one so I’ve been trying to come off the ones I think may be causing it but that’s a WHOLE other battle on its own.
I’m taking cymbalta, Ativan, seroquel, mirtazipine and methadone.
I’m still waiting for a psychiatrist to see me. All these meds have been prescribed by family doctor and methadone doctor.

I have taken Seroquel before... it makes me feel worse... now I am on Wellbruton and Abilify for my symptoms... sometimes it takes a while for the doctors to figure out what is best for your body and symptoms.

My son had difficulties with highs/lows with Ativan. Seroquel is for sleep. I do well on Cymbalta. I've never heard of Mirtazapine. As with any medication, everyone is different and medications also have different effects. Speak with your doctors before stopping any medication, and make sure all doctors are aware of everything the other is prescribing. Good luck.
