I hear you guys. i have been on a few meds that i didnt tolerate. so far i've tried, paroxetine ( had to stop this after two weeks coz it caused severe urinary retention and incontinence ), Fluvoxamine and pristiq ( had to stop these coz of sexual side effects), Abilify ( weight gain). I'll probably have to stop prozac as well coz my appetite is through the roof. My dinner is like a 700 to 800 calories alone and then i wake up in the morning mid sleep one more time for another go at about 200 calories of food. Although the prozac is not the sole culprit behind this food binging, it has a partner, seroquel.

I think my doctor understands that im sensitive to meds. So maybe she suggested this treatment as an alternative to meds. But i think im gonna keep this as an option of last resort. There are still many meds to try. Hopefully i'll find one with manageable side effects.
