I spend all this time 'trying out' meds which for the most part end up making me feel crazier than I already do (i.e. increased mania, sleep too much/too little, eat too much/little, vivid dreams, etc.). I finally got put on Celexa which with time has proven to be my 'miracle drug'. A few side effects but the benefits waaaayyy outweigh them. But now, five weeks into this med and I've broken out into hives everyday for a week. I ruled out other possible causes. I was clear all day today so I didn't call the doctor thinking I had ruled the hives down to a particular food. I took my meds at noon, now it's 4 hrs. later and I'm covered in the hives again. It has to be the Celexa.
I'm so frustrated right now. Whatever is good for me is never somehow good for me.
