[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 187367"] Thank you. I just feel so lost...so empty...like I have nothing left. I don't know what medications to do. My GP mentioned adding Pristiq (sp?) to the lexapro, but that will take awhile to kick in. The klonopin helps me to sleep, but I don't take it during the day because it makes me feel more depressed. I don't want to do the risperdal because 1) it caused significant cognitive dulling (even at .5mg) and I don't need any help with that, 2) weight gain and lord knows I don't need any help with that and 3) taking it every day caused horrible, horrible nightmares. I originally wanted to do it PRN, but I think I'm past that. I don't know if she'll rx lamictal and I don't know how long it will take to get into a psychiatrist. I was surprised to find a therapist that is not with county mental health that took my insurance. I know nothing about him. I've never seen a guy therapist for me before. I don't know what medications can help quickly. I need to do something cause I'm sinking. All the tools, the self-talk, the whatever isn't working. It's not enough. I did talk to my mom. She's in Chicago right now. She's going to come up on Wednesday. I feel like there is this whole world out there full of beauty and promise and hope and then there is me and I can see the beauty. I just can't touch it. [/QUOTE]
