Some background:
I have been on atidepressants for some 20 years. Only in the last 3 years have I really taken a look inward at myself. I am 56 year old male. In that 3 years I became divorced from my wife of 27 years. somewhat estranged from my oldest daughter. We do talk / text on occasion. My youngest daughter seems more supportive of me and what I am going through. My current pdoc and I have had weekly visits for two years until recently it as gone to every other week. I am currently on three different meds.
Effexor 150mg
Resperidone 1G
Mirtazapine 30mg
The latter two I take at bedtime as prescribed. I just dont seem to be able to get a balance anylonger. Maybe I have'nt given the meds ampl time to kick in. I have come to the realization that this is a life long illness. I just wish I could get a balance some how
