My main symptoms are, anhedonia, insomnia, loss of appetite, sensitivity to pain, etc. (I loose a deal of weight) (-20 pounds off a 130 pound frame is no good)
A leading doctor would likely prescribe something like effexor. Well effexor gave me heart palpitions and I could only sleep a few hours on it. It also made me loose MORE weight, and didn't help my depression much.
So a doctor prescribes zyprexa to combat insomnia, and thats great, but then I wake up feeling worthless, and anhedonia is terrable.
And then bla bla, more drugs to combat this side effect or that side effect, and before I know it I'm on 10 drugs and I feel worse than when I started.Certain skills I found were worsened by marajuanna, but other skills were enhanced. My language skills sucked, but my math skills were fine. Music playing was actually better too.
Some people do great on prescription AD's. I don't fall into that category.Linkadge
