Does Anyone Else Use Medical Marijuana For Anxiety Treatment? In My State, It Is A Legal Option!
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

I use a 100mg Edible to combat social anxiety. Without it, my throat locks up and I start leaking tears. This is how my panic attack works. The edible allows my vocal cords to not paralyze but the tear control could use some advice if anyone has any.

Lithium
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

My doctor checked my Lithium levels and said they were "extremely low." He put me on 300 MG of Lithium XR 3X/day. He did not diagnose me as bipolar but everything I've read indicates that that's what this medication is prescribed for. Does anyone know something I don't? Also, I am perpetually EXHAUSTED!! I also take 2 MG of @Xanax 2X/ day, in addition to @Celexa. (40 MG 2X/ day. I feel like I'm walking in my sleep! Functioning is almost impossible! Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!!

I am currently on Ativan on an as needed basis but I can’t function at work on it- it makes me too drowsy. Does anyone have any suggestions I can bring to my doctor when I see him in two weeks? Thanks!

Zoloft
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Pdoc increased my zoloft to 150mg 3 wks ago.
First wk was good,second a bit anxious but now I'm into my third wk and I had a migrane for 3 days followed by 4 days of a strange throbbing, pulsating in the back of my head and ears. I also have neck and back pain (between mu shoulder blades.
What should I do? I'm also on lithium, valdoxan, phenerghan and 2mg of valium.
I'm starting to feel very concerned about these symptoms as I'm just not feeling myself.
