Medications For Depression


Over the course of 33 years I was seen by 28 physicians and prescribed some 20 different medications. Each one seemed to work for a few months to a year. Then back I would go. It seemed as though my body would acclimate itself as quickly as possible to the new drugs and there I would be; back in hell.
1. Anafranil(clomipramine)
2. Buspar(buspirone)
3. Celexa(citalopram)
4. Desyrel(trazodone)
5. Effexor(venlafaxine)
6. Elavil(amitriptyline)
7. Equetro(carbamazepine)
8. Ludiomil(maprotiline)
9. Luvox(fluvoxamine)
10. Norpramin(desipramine)
11. Paxil(paroxetine)
12. Prozac(fluoxetine)
13. Remeron(mirtazapine)
14. Serzone(nefazodone)
15. Surmontil(trimipramine)
16. Tofranil(imipramine)
17. Vivactil(protriptyline)
18. Wellbutrin(bupropion)
19. Zoloft(sertraline)
20. Electro-convulsive therapy
This is only a partial list because my memory fades in and out with regards to what I’ve ingested.
