I have terrible anxiety, and am currently trying out Dosulepin medication (tricyclic AD) without much luck to be fair.
I have tried SSRIs, 5-6 different ones, and they all cause me a side effect that is a sensation of electric shock in my brain. It's rare but not unheard of.
I then tried Mitrazapine which did wonders on depression, but did not touch anxiety. And it made me gain 50% of my body weight on top of my normal weight, making me obese :(
I have a meeting with a psychiatrist soon, but thought I would ask the wisdom of Mumsnet first. What can help for anxiety? If you have any medication for it, what is it?
I'm not coping at all, sorry for posting this in AIBU, I just figured here has to be someone with advice.
