Depressed~ I know this is probably the wrong forum, but hey i'll ask my question anyway.
Like millions of other people, i suffer from severe depression. I've tried Zoloft which had a NASTY effect and do not wish to try it again.
Can anyone recommend a good anti-depressant, one that will actually work without the side effects?
I know most of you will reply by saying that i should visit a Doctor. But hey, i don't trust them because they don't know what they're talking about anyway.

actually doctors do know what they're doing but mabey you should try somthing else. When I started going under a huge amount of depression I meditated, now I'm happy a lot more and no side effects well except for the happiness. woth a shot right? ]
Well I take Lexapro and a pretty high dose of that. I have no side effects really just if I dont take them for I while I get tired ]
i really dont understand your problem since i dont have it but i hope you can find a solution... i dont understand why do you not want to see i doctor...you say they have no idea what they are talking about but yet you are trying to get information from random people on the internet...i hope you find a solution and please atleast try a doctor
good luck ]
Everybody responds differently to drugs. An antidepressant which works well for one person might not work at all for you. Sadly you may just have to try a few until you find one that controls your symptoms with minimal interference to your life.
You do need to visit a doctor though. I've had some hellish doctors, so I know how frustrating it is when they don't appear to listen or pescribe things that just don't worrk, but they do have knowledge that can and will help you, such as which drugs to try if x and y haven't helped or have had negative side effects. It might be an idea to go to a different doctor if your having trouble being taken seriously - it's worth shopping around for one who's both clued up about mental health and cares how the drugs effect you.
It may take a while to find the right solution, but it will happen. You need to keep trying , with the help of your doctors, until you find a solution that works. ]
Maybe you should talk to a therapist. Depending on where you live i can recomend a few (I've been to different ones). IM me on LiLnSbAbY123, or leave a question on my column.

I have two maniac depressive friends. And guess what? They both aren't on drugs, and now after years of self evaluation, and self fixing, they are much better now, and are enjoying who they are without drugs in their diet period. Depression isn't cured by drugs, that is prolonguing the problem. I'm not saying you get a choice if you are depressed or not, but you have the opportunity to fix it. I can't tell you how, because according to them it's something you have to fix all by yourself. Good luck. ]
ask your doctor whats best for you ]
I have tried 2 different antidepressants and they didn't do anything for me! Can I ask you something, how do you manage to take Zoloft if you didn't see a doctor? because at my drug stores you have to have a prescribtion for it. (I live in Canada) . Sorry that I didn't answer your question!! ]
