I had so many bad reactions. Hundreds. Years. Backpack full of meds or herbs that caused bad reactions.

My journey to remission taught me an important clue to look for in situations where depression is caused by either infection or toxins - difficult trials of meds including such things as exaggerated side effects, intolerable, worsened depression, other new symptoms, basically unexplained bizarre bad reactions. I recognize these patterns but most doctors would not have a clue what I'm talking about here.

Bad reactions to trials tells me something is wrong, something more than simply mood. Likely something else, not psychiatric, though it looks psychiatric on the outside.

This pattern is actually so solid and profound that one of my docs would dose Lexapro in liquid starting at one drop which is just 1/10th of 1mg, and some of his patients ended up feeling improved on just 1mg! They got worse on higher doses.

So next time you have a bad reaction to a trial, let it settle out and then try it again at just a miniscule dose - a crumb off the pill, just a smidgen of inside the capsule. If your reaction is still pretty strong, then you really know something's up.

Both of my Lyme docs that got me well told me that almost every patient they see has been failed by multiple specialists, nearly all of them had psychiatrists, and nearly all of them were not well managed by the psychiatrists or the meds.

Just for thought. Much more out there than the doctor knows or is telling you.
