Im On Anti-depressants Any Experience?

[velvett]

I've been on Celexa for migraine prophylaxis for over a year. My moods are stable, no side effects, and no migraines. So, I can't complain. Finding the right drug for you may take some doing, however, so if you start to feel weird or unusually shitty after a few weeks, talk to your doc, and see about switching to a different drug. Though they all seek to accomplish the same objective, all anti-depressants are all chemically distinct, so your body will react to each one differently. It's just a matter of finding the right one for you. Best of luck!

Migraines!

How bad were your migraines prior?
Migraine is my personal nemesis.

Did a neurologist put you on Celexa?
Can you take Celexa and a Triptan together in the event you do get a migraine?

never used them but my ex used them a lot.

i think they are great for extreme depression.

for mild depression or anxiety I'd go with ativan and happy thoughts.

My migraines were crippling. They began during my second year of grad school. The presentation was atypical, as I wasn't nauseous and didn't have major issues with equilibrium, but the rest of the tickets were there.

I actually take 3 things: Topamax, Celexa, and Amitriptylene. I have A LOT of food triggers, in addition to anxiety. I could prolly come off of the Celexa and be ok, but I feel great, so I see no reason to rock the boat. Topamax and Amitriptylene were, literally, life savers for me. Were I to come off of those two meds, I would enter a near perpetual migraine state. Taking those two babies, and observing some dietary guidelines, keeps me 100% migraine free.

And, no, a psychiatrist Rx'd the Celexa, but I wouldn't be surprised if neurologists have written that script as well.

Thats why I told you to ask your wife if you could stop sleeping on the couch.

My doc tried to put me on anti meds for anxiety to and after two days I had to get off. It was HORRIBLE! I would rather deal with the anxiety than ever get on those things again. I felt like I was having a terrible rolling experience of something. I felt bad.

Good luck with them Woot. Hopefully you don't feel weird on them and they do you some good.

Neurontin (Gabapentin) works well for anxiety and/or generalized anxiety
I'm on it and know of a couple girls on it too,and they too have a favorable opinion of it
you dont feel like you're on something,like with the benzodiazepines

so my regimen is a wellbutrin and neurontin taken together,sometimes once a day,sometimes 3 times
