Hi, @cp6401 - good to hear you are much better.

A couple of other Connect threads you might want to check out include:

- Long-term depression https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/long-term-depression

- Best antidepressants for anxiety https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/antidepressants-and-benzo-taper

- Going off citalopram (Celexa) https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/going-off-citalopram

When you mention TRT, are you referring to testosterone therapy like that described in this Mayo Clinic article https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/sexual-health/in-depth/testosterone-therapy/art-20045728?

Hi @lisalucier thanks for the links. Yes that trt. Delatestryl to be exact. My testosterone was barely on the charts it was so low..

Unfortunately I just went through another rough patch while still at 37.5.. I think I will stay here till the new year.. then resume..for what it’s worth.. personally I don’t care abut the brainzaps or headaches, but the anxiety and irritability are horrible.. I feel so bad subjecting my family and kids to that behavior🙁
