Hello, i have been diagnosed as bipolar iii+ GAD, and i am on escitalopram, lithium, lamotrigine and propranolol since 6 months, i am an mbbs doctor and i had taken escitalopram 20 mg for social anxiety issues in 2020 but then after three months i slowly quit those meds, after quitting i have developed sexual issues, physical symptoms and mood issues. Now that i am on these meds i have seen improvement in mood and social anxiety, but i still have sexual issues like low libido and possibly erectile dysfunction, also physical symptoms like fibromyalgia random muscle pain, pins and needle sensation and some ibs like symptoms. Unfortunately I cannot increase escitalopram bcz it causes me to switch and benzos like etizolam makes me drowsy. I also tried agents like tofisopam and buspirone but they didn't help. Now what should i do in such cases. Also i had really like really high Libido, also due to these meds currently i have lost that rage and motivation, is PSSD real? EMA is saying yes.
My brother has some issues like he would don't like to meet people and he easily angery. Never talk politely...he suffering this kind of problem from last 3-4 year
Hi. I'm suffering from anxiety and depression since 2023 and I'm on medication . That i stopped taking since one month. Yesterday the doctor gave me a sedative medicine to sleep. It was good. But I'm feeling like my throat is sinking and I'm getting startled from little things now. Is this normal?
I was on petril beta 20 for 3 months and betacap 20 and cloba 5 mg in half for 1months and then I went a gap of medicine of 26 days within that period I went to new doctor he prescribe me pari cr 12.5 mg and clonotril 0.25 mg for 10 days and I took 5 days pari cr and clonotril 1 tab at that time my symptoms were severe like head is going to explode and bursts with palpitations I m scared of taking clonotril as it is a benzodiazepine but my old dctr gave me for more than 2 or 3 months can I leave benzodiazepine or I have to depend on benzodiazepine..
