Used to take Viibryd. It worked well against my depression, but made my ears ring really bad. Sometimes the ringing would pulse so strongly that my eyes would involuntarily close.

I ha e been on meds since I was 21 I am now 47 I feel like over the last 4 years that I can't think. Words I know I know. I keep forgetting things all the time. I hate it.

After many years on different medications, I feel like nothing works for me anymore. Doctor has decided to try a combination of 2 anti depressants together. Just wondering if anyone else takes more than 1 and if so, is it worth sticking it out?
Yes I do take 2 different meds. I take Zoloft and Wellbutrin. They have worked for a while now. In the past I have gotten immune to the meds I’m on and have to change but when that one stops being… read more

Has anyone ever tried an alternative treatment like herbal or anything?
I tried CBT which I found helpful. A useful website is get.gg they have a lot of self help information.
Is anyone taking Trintellix/vortioxetine? How long? And how was it for you? My main worry is getting serotonin syndrome from it, and also if it makes you gain weight faster?
Lexapro and Lamictal were the magic combo for me. When I was in mclean hospital, the #1 psych hospital in the country, I went in on Trintellix and the doc said she never uses it for patients because… read more
