I want to make an appointment with my doctor about my depression and anxiety but I'm really nervous about it. Can anyone (especially anyone in Canada) tell me what to expect? Will she prescribe me meds or would she need to refer me to someone else?
Hello Lauraliz, if you have been to your doctor for quite a while, then they will pick up how you are feeling and then ask a few questions, but before you go write down on some paper what's going on… read more

Hey, do you ever feel that way
I feel really heavy often and I lack the energy to even converse with people
When I play sports I run out of breath very quickly and I used to be a competitive athlete with amazing cardio.

Of course all th tests came back negative. It's been lasting for about 3 years now and is so debilitating. I also feel slow and sluggish often.

Phyllis, I'm with you! Can't seem to find the right medicine. I get tired of fighting....
I've tried many different meds over the years, mostly SSRI's, with little to no effect.
I've also tried Wellbutrin, which made me totally insane, and just tried Lithium, which I also reacted badly to (intense itching all over my body & extreme nausea).
I'm just looking for some other medications I can ask my doctor about.
I tried alot of different meds including those you mentioned. Trial and error. Cymbolta seems to work best for me
