My disorders:
-Major Depressive Disorder (depression)
-Severe Anxiety Disorder/panic Disorder
-Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
-Attention Deficit Disorder
My new Meds:
Pexeva 40 mg once a day-for Depression
Xanax 0.25 mg 4x a day-for anxiety/panic attacks
Valium 10 mg at bedtime-for difficulty sleeping
Ritalin 5 mg 3x a day-for ADD
Fish oil vitamin 1x a day-my mom says it can help with the depression
So, anyone have a somewhat professional opinion on my meds. I will tell you this...I am less depressed, no panic attacks, sleeping almost through the night, and can focus and get things done. I feel like a whole new person!!! I felt dead to the world for so long. The only thing I worry about now is how many meds I am taking. My doc is going to take me off the Valium soon...when the Ritalin kicks in and I can shut my brain off to sleep. What do you think? Is it ok what I am taking? Any comments are welcomed!
