Levomilnacipran vs QUETIAPINE

I took a Genetic Test called Genesight and it listed the following medicines to use as directed (highlighted in green) but I don't think any of them are for OCD. Does anyone have experience taking any of these medicines specifically for OCD? * bupropion (Wellbutrin®) * desipramine (Norpramin®) * des

I wanted to share my experience with Viibryd thus far, since when I first starting looking into it after being prescribed it, I mostly found people saying how they had a bad time on it. Quick background, this is the 6th antidepressant I've tried. Before Viibryd, I was on citalopram for 8 years and

**Most Common Antidepressants** * *SSRI's* \- Works on Serotonin * Sertraline (Zoloft) * Fluoxetine (Prozac) * Paroxetine (Paxil) * Citalopram (Celexa) * Escitalopram (Lexapro) * Fluvoxamine (Luvox) * Trazodone (Desyrel) * Vilazodone (Viibryd) * Vortioxetine (Trintellix)

I'm really struggling with my depression post-surgery. I think a big part of the problem may be my anti-depressant. I have had great success with Fetzima/levomilnacipran, a little-used antidepressant that unfortunately, ONLY comes in an extended release version. I think that, with my rny and shorte

Apologies for the wall of text - I've done my best to condense 15 years of crap into a reasonably sized post. ​ I have a depressive disorder. This much is obvious. I've been on antidepressants for 15 years. I've tried 6 of them in total (fluoxetine, sertraline, trazodone, bupropion, vilaz

Hello, I'm am getting off Wellbutrin, and want to research an alternative drug to ask my DOC about. This is for MDD, and this is what I found: Lexapro - escitalopram (SSRI, seems fine, side effects don't sound good.) Venlafaxine-Effexor (SNRI, similar to Wellbutrin, standard SNRI side effects)) Dul

I turned 26 last year and got booted off my dad's insurance. I was still in school at the time and not working. I looked for coverage on the exchange and none of the plans would cover my antipsychotic (quetiapine/seroquel). I had to go on COBRA which meant I would be getting the same coverage that I

Yeah, it's been a bit weird. My psych and I are lowering my quetiapine in the hopes to get off it entirely because frankly, I'm suffocating under it. I knew I'd be signing up for some discomfort through this process; the balancing act is keeping it in the green and not tanking into someplace scary.

I finally started medication (quetiapine + lamotrigine) today, after a really long mental battle, so I was feeling pretty proud and good after my psych appointment today. Then I came home, decided to tell my Mum (because she always complains I don’t tell her enough, I still live with her as I’m stil

I'm so tired. I've been suffering for months due to medication side effects. Olanzapine triggered my POTS and I haven't recovered since August. I'm constantly dizzy and I can barely leave the house. Ive only been to the store 5 times since then. I constantly have anxiety and panic attacks fearing I'

I feel a weird sense of relief having a name to this perpetual cycle of sadness and mania. I was apprehensive at first to seek help since there would be times I'd be happy and I used to downplay my sadness as being overreactions to heartbreaks or failures. I'm excited to start my medications (lamot

I've lived in the same place for about 2 years and there's a pharmacy right across the street where I go to fill my prescriptions. They have low turnover so it's always the same people who see me. And of course by now they know what I have since I buy all the classic stuff: lithium, lamotrigine, que

I need to share this with someone because if I tell my family they will freak out. I am currently travelling Asia, in Vietnam. Last night a depressive episode hit me like a ton of bricks despite slow release venlafaxine, 500mg quetiapine and propanol in my system. I went to the 8th floor of my hote
