Yeah, I would love to take cymbalta but insurance won't cover. Probably because it works. 😟. Got some calls to make tomorrow. Glad I found this site. Should of googled it awhile back. Thanks!!!

Hello Thank you! I've been hearing a lot about effexor. Welbrutrin worked great but my skin got so itchy. I'm glad effexor can be compounded into liquid. I'm getting lots of answers on this site. So grateful! Thank you again!

Thank you so much! Calling doctor tomorrow! Your so kind

Hi I did check myself in twice. First place gave me worsened my PTSD. They did nothing and second place said I wasn't suicidal and wanted to send me to the CBT program, which I just finished. Also he said I wasn't like the patients cause I seemed saner then them. Dang, I could write a book about this. It's been a nightmare! Thank you though for your concern. I appreciate all advice.

That's what I'm feeling like exactly. It's like they don't care. I've done the liquid, crusher up the pills and put them in pudding to absorb. Then I have to switch doctors cause mine left and the next doctor didn't believe about the whole ordeal and put me on regular pills. He was a total idiot so I switched again and now she's trying to figure out what to do. I will ask about the lexapro for sure. Oh i want to know about this test you took. I've never been offered that. Thank you!!

Hello Thank you so much? Celexa and Welbutrin worked best for me before surgery the surgery, then I had 1st heart attack at 46. Found out that celexa at 60mg in a woman past 40 is bad for your heart. So they took me off and Welbutrin caused a itchy rash. So that's why the zoloft. Cymbalta is what I wanted to try but insurance won't cover it probably because it works 😞. I may ask about effexor and lexapro. I'm been dealing with these problems for 21 years. I'm overweight again and confused because I still cant eat like I use to. I throw up with 2 bites of chicken. Sometimes I can't even get my vitamins down. In the bathroom all day.. Ugh! I'm so tired 😞

Hi Thank you for your response. I do have a both a therapist and a psychiatric doctor who prescribes meds. I just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing the same thing. Just upset that gastric surgeon is saying it has nothing to do with the bypass when I'm starting to read and hear that it does. I'm kinda stuck unless it can be reversed. Thank you though for helping. Your dog is beautiful ☺

Hello I had gastric bypass in 2012. Have regretted it ever since. At first I was confused cause they said I wouldn't be as hungry. I was starving and having stomach pains from hunger. I lost 80pds. I didn't even get to enjoy the feeling of stepping on a scale and smiling or fitting into smaller clothes with excitement. The feeling I waited for for so long never happen but maybe a smile when people told me how good I looked. Inside, I was falling apart. Before the surgery, the team of people at weight loss center knew I had panic attacks and depression. Very bad. I was on zoloft and ativan. I had recently had a mild heart attack so my regular doctor brought up the surgery because I was very overweight. I agreed. When I reached my goal weight, I started getting non stop panic attacks. Waking up 4 to 5 times a night with these attacks. It was so bad that u told my then Psychiatric nurse practitioner this problem and she actually told me she couldn't help me. I swear to God. She actually said that to her patient who was crying and needing help cause I didn't know what was happening. So I just walked out dumbfounded and lost. Then I had to go in search of another psychiatric to help me. Which was so hard to find where I live. Found one who didn't understand what was going on. So I was off the zoloft but still getting ativan from reg doc. I became suicidal, couldn't eat because when I would eat, it would make my anxiety worse. Didn't understand that. Found another doc who put me on Prozac (liquid) and Olizapine (might be spelled wrong). Two meds that make u gain weight. Thought I was safe because of surgery but no. They switched me back to zoloft (liquid). Nothing has worked and u gained my weight back, really depressed and anxious all the time. None stop stomach problems. Lots of accidents. Horrible! New doctor said thats been known that antidepressants won't absorb cause of surgery. I don't know what to do. My health has gotten worse. Mentally and physically. Gastric surgeon said she's never had a case with antidepressants not working. But been told by 2 docs that is does. I'm a mess and on zoloft, at Ivan, Gabapentin and prazosin for nightmares. None are working but ativan... kinda. Help me! I'm so scared and have a very worried son whose scared to leave me alone. Can't stop crying and sleeping all the time. Now in overweight again and also has another heart attack from anxiety. Had to have 3 stents. Afraid
