I have tried CBT and then was also in group therapies....I was not in theapy really long because I couldnt afford it....I am on disability and only have a limited income as I am sure you know with being on disability...
I have tried...paxil,cymbalta,prozac,celexa,lexapr,elavil,trazodone,effexor,remeron,lyrica,savela,xanax,ativan,zoloft and I am sure many more I cant remember...they would always give me worse side effects than what I was already feeling like more anxiety or depression...migraines...abdominal pain,nausea or vomiting...the longest I stayed on was prozac for 4 months and I got so bad off my dr finally quit it....
He says I am just very sensitive to medications not only antidepressants but almost everything,,,my whole family is like this and it makes it really bad on us because of that...
This all started with dizziness/vertigo and wouldnt let up so I visited ENT doctors 3 of them in all and they say they can tell I have vertigo but they dont know what is causing it.....they gave me meclizine but it only made me sleepy it didnt get rid of the dizziness....since all this has happened and no one could find out what is causing the dizziness I started having anxiety and depression....I am so scared of the dizziness that it causes panic attack....sometimes I throw up with them and most days I am just dizzy and sick on my stomach...
Its been 5 years like this and it is so frustrating and since all this also about 3 years ago I was diagnoised with fibromyalgia....I am in pain with that and have chronic fatigue but honestly its the dizziness I feel if I could get rid of that that all the anxiety and depression would leave and I feel I could deal with the fibro...
Well hope this helps...I am just at wits end with all this and cant figure out why a dr cant help me but I have lost my identity and feel like my life....its like I will never get any better and I know thats the depression talking but I honestly dont know what else to do to help myself .....I have been to every dr I know of and all comes out ok which I am thankful for but would like some help also....I just want me back again....I loved and miss the person I use to be....its been like night and day....all I do is stay home now because I get so dizzy out or trying to drive....I am becoming homebound and I dont like that either but I dont know what else to do I really just dont...
Thanks for listening...hope you have some encouragement or answers....thanks again
