Antidepressants

[PinkGorilla]

I think I may need to go back on antidepressants. I've been on and off them throughout my adult life, but stbx ended our marriage a few months ago. This past month I've fell into a pit of dispair. I can't go out in public for crying, can't eat, can't sleep and I'm failing as a mother. All I can do is ruminate, obsess and overthink all day/night. Did any of you go on them after separation and which one did you go on? Do you know if one is best for ruminating and obsessively overthinking? I've been on both escitalopram and sertraline before.

i didn’t go on citroplam until I was at the bottom of rock bottom and then a mile away and I should have spoken to my GP early I suffered for a few years by myself. This time around I’m on Mirtazapine as I don’t sleep and Propanol for anxiety and the propanol helps with the intrusive overthinking.

Citalopram for me…I was on it before I left but upped the dosage after I left. I wasn’t sure how much of a difference it was making and could miss a day without any impact but I had to miss two days last week due to a review and it being the weekend so I’d run out on Sunday. Wednesday morning I was a sobbing anxious mess. Shan’t be making that mistake again!
