Dear sekhar,
what are your current dosages of psychotropics and the clear indication of each? What are your current active symptoms, though it is understandable that you have bipolar disorder but what type, I don’t know yet.
As being a pharmacist yourself, I am expecting you to have this information about yourself.
You can mail me at email to discuss these issues in detail, as it will be tricky to titrate multiple medications.
Take care.

Hi. I have suffered from depression since last 2 years and for that I took ssri - escitalopram 20 mg for 3 months and duloxetine - 40 mg for 4 months in all. I am off all drugs since march 2020. Fortunately I have not felt many withdrawal symptoms and come off it much easily as compared to others as I read. Currently though, I am feeling emotional numbness/ anhedonia, which is inability to feel anything. This is also hampering my ability to think clearly, and rationally and remember things. I felt it since I started drugs. But now it is improving. I am currently taking 1000 mg of fish oil only and it is helping me immensely to manage my depression. Do I need to take any other drugs/supplement for faster recovery or should I wait to recover it naturally? How much time it requires to improve?

Hi lybrate-user, 2 years of suffering from depression affects all thought process, the time period you used antidepressants is less. The feelings of anhedonia, difficulty in thinking clearly and not remembering things are symptoms of depression, not side effects of medication. Currently what you are experiencing seems like relapse of depression. Fish oil is a supplement, only supportive. For example reducing salt for high bp or taking proper diet for diabetes. If you want faster recovery, you ha...more

You are into an anger-related depression and need the assistance of a counselor too. This I am sure you have not tried and that is why there is so much trouble coming out of the depression. So find a good counselor and work with that person along with the medication you are taking. A lot of your symptoms are either induced by the depression or is a part of the disorder. So they should all stand to benefit if you combined the two therapies. In the meantime please do the following sincerely becaus...more

I have been on antidepressants for past 11 years for anxiety disorder. I was on escitalopram for last 3 years and it stopped working. My current psychiatrist started me on buspirone, clomipramine, fluvoxamine and clonazepam. I got some improvement and reached the doses buspirone 10 mg 1-0-1, fluvoxamine 100 mg 1-0-1, clomipramine 75 mg 0-0-1 and clonazepam 0.25 1-0-1 I was having intolerable side effects and I missed one dose of clomipramine and problems started again. I told my psychiatrist that only escitalopram and duloxine had worked for me. Then he stopped buspirone and clomipramine and reduced fluvoxamine dose to 100 mg once and started escitalopram at 20 mg directly and duloxetine 20 mg two times and clonazepam 0.25 3 times. I am having a weird mood and not able to control my negative thoughts after that switch. Was it a correct method to stop 2 medicines abruptly and starting 2 other meds at high doses?

Hello Lybrate user,
happy to hear that you r taking medicine for the anxiety problem. According to the current symptoms psychiatrist started the new medicine. It will take some time to get relief from symptoms which you are currently going through. After 1 week if still you r having the same problem then need to consult with the Dr. & let him know about your current symptoms.
Thank you, have a great day and have a speedy recovery.
