Effective medication - July 17th 2013, 02:55 PM

I'm not sure if this is allowed, so Ill apologize in advance if it isn't - but I was wondering if I could find out more of everyone else's experiences with medication?

I've tried Lexapro (escalitopram oxalate) which was useless and didn't help with the weight gain. I've also tried Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) which is great for anxiety but not so much for depression, Topirimate which works to relax me but slows your thought processes a little too much, and Bubpropion, which works for depression but not the anxiety. Overall none of them have been particularly effective, and see, to be getting less so.

I've booked an appointment with a psych to see if we might find a solution, but I was wondering how everyone else found theirs? Your opinion of treatment with medication in general?
