I was on citalopram 20mg for 3 months, didnt feel better, then doctor put me on Venlafaxine 37.5mg = 2 per day, was on them for 3 months, no good affects, so now ive been on 75mg = 2 per day = 150mg, been on this for 1 month, and i feel so much worse, bad dreams every night, poor sleep, sweating in my sleep all on body, angry all time, no energy, extreme low mood, etc etc.
Should i stop these pills, or try another month, or try stronger dose?
Looking back, 20mg citalopram, i was not feeling this bad on them.
i just couldnt tell if citalopram was doing anything good for me.
I dont even know if i have depression or anxiety, doctors have done no testing properly, just basic questions, and then "oh ur depressed". Did CBT therapy and therapist gave up after handful of sessions, saying it wasnt working and i need to see psychologist. so waiting for a psychologist now.
So ive been on pills for 7 months or 8months, and i havnt felt a good day or week or month, its like nothing is happening, how i feel is like how ive felt all my adult life, like not good.
would i still feel venlafaxine withdrawal even if pills have NOT worked for me?
whats the best way to get off these pills? because i really want to try a diff pill, now that ive finally started to take medication.
do you think i should go for a higher dose of venlafaxine?
thanks for advice and help given.
