I'm currently finding Selegiline really helpful. I am part of a few Nootropics groups and their advice really invaluable. Dopamine is more needed for me I have discovered. It helped on day 1. I hope it keeps working. It's an MAOI B inhibitor. I got fed up with doctors and found it myself.
The groups are on FB.eg one called Nootropica
Thanks for the info! I'll have to look into that, maybe if I bring my own research and suggestions on meds the docs will help me better.
Have you tried an snri (one that works on norepinephrine as well as serotonin) i
Find them more helpful for anxious depression.
Thanks
I haven't yet, but I'd be willing to try them

For me, the medication helped with my depression and anxiety. It made me less anxious and more active.
However, it didn't stop my suicidal ideation at all. I'm thinking of ctb 24/7. I agree, the meds sometimes feel like a bandaid to me, and I had to change meds because they didn't work or because I had side effects.
But I can't deny the meds I'm currently taking have made my life a little more bearable. Hope you can find the medication that works for you.
I suppose it can change your raw mood but not your thought habits. It's far from an easy fix, but that at least sounds like a solid starting place for people that find their anxiety and depression very exhausting.

For me I haven't found any that work. I have been on nearly every drug over a period of 25 years, and on various combinations of drugs, too. I am currently on 6 different medications and truthfully for me they do nothing. But each to their own and I am glad that they help some people.
