– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Mirtazapine is making me sleep 14-18 hours a day. I just can’t do anything. Tonight, I go up to 30mg. I’m scared. Diazepam is keeping me from hurting myself or anyone. I feel like a half-person. My boss is speaking to my doctor and psychiatrist. I may lose my job. But I may have another one to go to, if I get better. I want to believe. I just want to believe.

Oh man, that’s terrible Andy. i’m sorry the meds are so tough on you and that it’s causing problems at work. If it does cause you to lose your job i hope the other one is there for you. Your field is a pretty big one. i’m sure you’ll find something pretty quick if the need arises. Take care Andy and Good luck. tom

I’ve been seeing a therapist for a little while now and she set me up an appointment with a psychiatrist. I smoke weed a lot now to get my mind off things.I drink too. Would it be like a big no no to do this while I’m taking these antidepressants?
Response:

Response:
The use of any kind of drug while taking anti-depressants is an incredibly bad idea. It is immensly irresponsible to advise anyone otherwise. Sometimes the use of illegal drugs can do more to cause your depression than anything else. Do yourself a favor and don’t listen to this bullshit. If you want your depression treated, DON’T self-medicate. And alcohol in combination with anti-depressants, or any kind of mood altering drug, can kill you. Clear enough? CAIN
Response:
Lurking mode off Posted and Mailed Do yourself a favor and don’t drink while taking anti-depressants. The resulting crash could be devastating. I stopped drinking, feeling much better about it. I smoke in moderation. I do mean moderation, one a day twice a week. I want to get well so I discussed it with my doctor, other than the fact it is illegal he didn’t see much problems. If you have worries I would talk to you Doc or pharmacist, ( they know much about interactions of meds better than most Doctors). Nothing wrong with being well informed. Bill, lurking mode back on.

Well, in moderation. I wouldn’t take every little pill a M.D. gave you. And certainly nothing that a "psychologist" (whatever that means) suggests. (but I assume you already knew that) Remember that they are all merchants first and foremost. (especially with the advent of so-called "insurance") — The Doctor

Response:
firstly, i dont believe cam was speaking about prescribed medications taken properly. secondly, i disagree that he should apologise for his opinion. instead of taking it personally, perhaps you should try and get to know his personal opinion and reasoning for his intelligent and brave comments and behaviors. cam, i would suggest not paying attention to these comments. yes, they have their own feelings – but i believe your choice is the right one for you and never, ever feel guilty or shame for feeling and sharing your beliefs. we are here to support you, in this decision and all else, whether we all agree with you or not. ~*misskenna*~
– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Thats not a very fair comment cam. When I was on meds I got a lot of benefit from them and they helped me a great deal. I think you should apologise for your comment as lot of people (including myself) might take offense at it.

Response:
i think Miss Kenna’s right. i really thought that Cam was talking about recreational drugs. Meds are a different story entirely. Meds have saved many more lives than they have damaged. Cam’s heart is always in the right place around here as far as i know. Even if folks disagree with him i believe everyone would have to agree that he meant well. tom
