Hi,
I'm wondering what meds to consider for my panic and general anxiety as well as for my depression. Benzos are not working well, and I'm actually weaning myself off clonazepam, which I been on for over eight years.
Recently I have taken reboxetine and milnacipran (for separate periods) for depression and anxiety. Both works well for anxiety but have little impact on my depression and fatigue, as opposed to sertraline which did nothing for my anxiety nor depression. Which is strange since SSRIs in general are supposed to be good for anxiety, including panic anxiety.
So my question is what to try next, I always take Remeron 15mg with my meds, it's like I can't function without it.
Noradrenergic meds seem to work best for my anxiety, but I have never tried SSRIs like cipralex or cipramil, is there any point, considering sertraline does nothing for me? Venlafaxine is a big no-no.
