I've tried them all. And they immediately make my DR worse. I'm trying to do the paxil and lamictal, but i just go crazy. Klonopin might be the right one.

Is this common that they make it worse?
I was on effexor when i had this huge breakthrough panic attack, which led to the past three years of serious DP/DR. So im wondering if there is some sort of association that my brain has with them. Just a thought.

Thanks everbody,

Brian

I was on effexor when i had this huge breakthrough panic attack, which led to the past three years of serious DP/DR.

i had an allergic reaction to Effexor which resulted in constant dp/dr afterwards...

since the incident every anti-depressent and anti-psychotic and SSRIs and tricyclics have made me feel far worse...heightening my anxiety, depression and especially dp/dr...

i am now trying to find my way without medication...

i hope you find something that works for you...

 

[dreamcatcher]

i started with panic attacks while been on carbamazipine...... i believe this is what helped to induce the dp/dr....but i have tried ads....a few totally didnt agree with me....really bad effects but now i am on sertainline.....i had a really hard time getting on it.....every symptom i had increased but after about 4 weeks the symptoms all calmed down....i still have dp/dr...and i do believe most ads make your dp/dr feel worse until the initial side effects are over

lustral gave me seizures (ssri neuro damage) and prozac i was given but i didn't bother taking cos i can't trust anti depressants

i had a nasty time on carbamazipine!!! lotsa of confusion!!! i think the antidepressants, well especially ssris can have lots of nasty side affects and take a long time to adjust to, mind u there are so many out there.

hope you find something (meds or not) that works or gives some relief

Blood/brain barrier drugs AM I ALLOWED TO WRITE THAT???
They effect the NS (Nervous system...).

It's like (Can I write this Dreamer?)
Taking low dose cocaine every morning, and every night for 3 years... and then weaning off.
You fry a few cells and "react".

Blood/brain barriers drugs "work" because of toxicity levels. They toxify you into...

They "work" at a toxic level.
Blood/brain barrier drugs are like magic mushrooms, heroin etc etc in that they are potent, and manipulate behaviour etc changes through chemical toxicity.

Alot of "anti-depressants" etc have ANXIETY as a side effect... anxiety causes DP/DR. It effects the NS and "jitters" you...

nervous system STIMULATION. Would be enough to do it... perhaps. Maybe I should blow ghosts stupid PARANOID head off, and book a permanent room in my local Psych ward.

Seems that effexor can induce DP/DR in almost the same way THC can. (Wicht happened to me)
Allright, about paxil, it sure has some nasty side effects and it definatly made my DP/DR worst, but with me the solution for this problem was to just keep taking them! Now i'm paxil for about 5 months and it's working fine, no depression/anxiety and an reduce of DP, sometimes even some complete DP-free moments. So it's not always that bad :wink:

Effexor have really helped my DR. I could not cope with my anxiety without AD.

You really have to give AD's and nevropeticas at least a couple of months before you judge them. SSRI often heighten the anxiety in the start-up phase, and i guess people with DP/DR are proably more vulnerable to these early side-effects as we tend to monitor and dramatize everything that goes on within out psyche.

It's wise to combine SSRI with klono in the first two weeks, but i do not think Klono is any good in the long run. It feels great in the beginning, sure, but you'll just develope a tolerance and in the end you'll have to take the medicine just to feel like you did before you even started. I'm currently trying to taper down on zopiclon myself, and it's crazy how addictive these drugs are.

nevropeticas

What's a nevropetica?

A neuroleptic drug?

I want to give them ALL a miss... AND WALLOW IN MI MISERY.

Argh... zopiclone.... it's the med I take to sleep (too often). It's really too good this med. It's very addictive, I mean not physically but mentally...

For me it's like taking beers. I foret my problems, and I sleep so well, before sleeping, I am so relax and happy.... I try too not to take it, but it seems to make depression worse in the mornings.

So yes,I know zopiclone very well. I doN,t take it all the days, but I really feel it'S my lifesaver sometimes.... not good.

I take ambien to sleep. I take paxil when I am depressed. When I am having a panic attack I take a xanax. When I am feeling psychotic I take a zyprexa. When my mood is unstable I take a depakote. When I feel manic I take a lithium. When I have a headache I take an ibuprofen. When I feel like I need to lose weight, I take a cortislim. I have a pill for every single problem. I love my meds

To answer your question, yes, SSRI's have made some people's DP/DR worse. My experience with paxil was a good and bad experience. When I first started paxil, it was like going to another dimension. Looking back on it, it was actually kinda neat, but at the time I was scared shitless to what was happening to me. After a few months on paxil, I began to feel really really good. Almost too good! Unfortunately, that feeling only lasted a few months and the DP/DR came back with a vengeance. Now that I am off all drugs, I still have some DP/DR, but it cannot be compared to the DP/DR I had on SSRI's.

Oh. Mind-control... the way there's a pill for every ailment.
I had a "twinge" of a feeling you were being cynical and contemptuous...

 

[Guest]

Why wouldn't I be cynical. Our society's mindset is pathetic. We can't even handle a problem by ourselves. We put chemicals into our bodies to dope us up so we don't care. I am guilty of this and it ruined my life for 2 years. It is only now that I am starting to get my life back and recover. But I still have to sit back and watch people ruin their lives, not a fun thing to do once you've been there.
