I have been dealing with anxiety, depression, and anger issues for the past 7-8 years. I was on the wrong medications for the last 6-7 years, and because of this, my depression and anxiety have increased (I feel). My current medications are working somewhat, but Unfortunately, the side effects of these medicines are causing severe challenges in my day-to-day life, making it hard to live better. I want to know if such side effects are common with all medications or if there are better alternatives available that can address my condition without causing intolerable side effects. The current side effects I am facing - are severe constipation, headache, sleep issues, and mild stomach ache. Please guide me on what steps I can take to manage my condition effectively.
