greetings everyone,
i hope that some of you here will be able to advise me regarding any possible alternatives to drug therapy for depression. my wife have been given by her doctor 200mg of zoloft/day + 50mg of trazodone. since last week, the doct prescribed an additional 150mg of wellbrutin/day - THAT she hasn't started yet, because I PANICKED!
she has lost more than 25 pounds in these 4 months, although she is eating..not much, but she never did eat too much anyway. to understand the situation, she is 5.8 tall and 96 pounds at this time.....
I know that she must stop this nonsense medication, but can't find someone to understand the huge problem here. she is depressed indeed, but functional, and ALL of her blood works have come back perfect. slightly tiroid hyper activity, but nothing alarming.
while all this goes on, I see these drugs taking my wife away. anybody has any ideas, please?
thank you.
