Thanks for replying, Poser.
I'll want to read your post again and see if I can help you in some way. I just wanted you to know that I'm not ignoring you.
My initial thoughts regarding your reaction to food is that you are experiencing an imbalance in your autonomic nervous system (too much sympathetic and/or too little parasympathetic). Do you experience mild heart palpitations after a meal? This might be part of any mood / anxiety illness you may have. However, I think it reasonable to believe that this dysautonomia can be precipitated or exaggerated by exposure to medication. I would be curious to know if your reaction to food is reduced when you reduce your intake of carbohydrates - especially refined carbohydrates.
The treatment your first psychiatrist prescribed to you was an abomination. You, of course, should have been prescribed psychotherapy as your initial treatment before moving on to biological treatments.
Any nausea?
Have you ever tried nortriptyline (Pamelor) or mirtazapine (Remeron)?
