I was young and had children before there was birth control and i remember the problems that women had with the first treatments and doses. It seems to be a hormonal problem, as you say. I had some experience with Zanax which I took at bedtime before my husband died, and that got me through a difficult period. I tried a couple of the drugs you mentioned and never got past two pills before I gave them up. In my middle ages I took a different regimen suggested by my gynocologist and could not tolerate Progesterone, so I took estrogen for ten years until they declared that not a good regimen anymore. My main feeling is that when you have unsatisfactory experience with these drugs it is best to return to a holistic, more normal lifestyle. I believe in a balanced diet and sunshine for developing vitamin D, as well as finding a mental health style that meets your needs. You decide what is best for you. I am glad you are living at home because that should help create a stable time for you. Sorry I can't think of any ideas to help, but my long life hasn't figured everything yet. Hormones are a difficult part of our body to maintain, expecially when pregnant and the body is kicking out up to ten times the normal insulin to grow a baby. I know about that because I vomited through three pregnancies and tried every trick offered to me. We are still looking for answers, it seems. Dorisena
