Believe me, I have been down all these roads. over two years I have seen more doctors, and tried more therapies than I can count. One or two appointments a week for a couple years really adds up!
Anti-depressants have been suggested (and tried) since the very beginning. Thus far, none have helped me, and side effects only made me feel worse. I now am a patient with an Integrative medical group that I feel may help me. Vitamin infusions seem to be giving me some strength and appetite. I have very low dose Klonopin that helps anxiety and sleeplessness on bad days.
I am new to this program so cannot say I have found the answer, but I continue to strive to overcome the challenges. I don’t like the “new me” but I’m trying to adjust.
