Hi Ya

Sorry you are feeling so bad again
you say you are changing your meds what are you on now and what are you changing to as a lot of these meds can cause your symptoms x

Well i was on duloxetine till middle of august and i didnt think they were doing anything so i decided to change to escitralopram which i have tried before and didnt work ( dont know why i thought they would now) anyway been on these about 4 weeks and i am so bad that i rang psychatrist and told her i want to go back on duloxetine , so its all my own fault in a way , but just felt like i wasnt getting anywhere , i cant go on ssris because they dont work on me anymore and im too scared to try tricyclics as they have much worse side effects so i will just have to hope the duloxetine works a bit better this time ,but not sure i can make it through till next week when i start them again , or the weeks following when its getting into my system
