I have been on and off anti depressant meds and anxiety meds the last 9 years.
IE: Paxil, prozac, zoloft, celexa, etc etc.
I took paxil the majority of the 9 years on and off (more off then on).
I do not like the side effects ANY of them give me. I have 2 girls I have to raise and can't be comatose due to being sleepy, dizzy or whatever else.
Are there any medications out there that don't have all the nasty adverse effects and withdrawl symptoms?
I don't like being dependant on drugs, that is half the reason I did not take them all the time during the last 9 years. But I believe the main reason I do not like taking them is simply because of the effects and withdrawls.
Anyone have any ideas?
Or suggestions maybe?
THanks

Bambi,
If there was such a drug, I think we would all be running to our doctors' offices! Unfortunately, there isn't. They all cause some types of side effects and withdrawals. Sorr to be the bearer of bad news. :(
