Date: Subject: Suicide Prevention Question Thank you in advance for volunteering on Allexperts. I understand that your advisement is not a substitute for a personal visit to a doctor's office. This is an urgent situation and I want to have as much information as possible, as I am very serious (and motivated) about managing my illness, and getting properly diagnosed. Past Diagnosis: disthymia, major depression, P.T.S.D., Bipolar, all from different professionals. I have been put on different medications: Zoloft, Celexa, Prozac, Effexor, Lithium, Zyprexa, and some I cannot remember. Zyprexa caused aggressive behavior, nothing major but uncharacteristic of my regular personality. I was on Lithium for about a month, at different dosages as guided by my doctor at the time, at which time the trial was terminated due to lack of effect. I had some general malaise during the trial. Zoloft was prescribed and taken three months, with no effect. Celexa did nothing as well. Prozac was the pill that I was on for the longest, and I was able to function and work at a fairly high level - but after a suicide attempt these pills were taken away (however these pills were not part of the attempt). Effexor did nothing. I have also seen a psychiatrist, psychologist, several GPs, specialist (neuro), etc. | |
