Re: a depot depression? does that exist From: Amy (anonymous@obgyn.net) Wed Aug 25 14:02:27 2004 Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Amy: "Re: Bloated as if my stomach is gonna explode?" Previous message: Amy: "Re: CYSTOSCOPY" In reply to: anonymous: "a depot depression? does that exist" Have you talked to your Doc about this? Perhaps he/she could prescribe some sort of anti-depressant? I don't take depo, but just having to fight endo and all the hormonal issues caused me to develop severe depression. When I talked to my family doctor about how I was feeling, she told me I was suffering from depression and prescribed Lexapro, which is an anti-depressant. It changed my life! My mood swings stopped, and I was just consistently very mellow. Stupid things don't bother me, and my patience level is much higher. I am no longer a mad or sad! blubbering idiot! Or maybe you could talk to your Doc about some natural remedies, like St. John's Wort or something if you would rather go the natural route. I would definitely discuss it with your Doctor though. No one should have to feel so bad! Hugs!! I hope things get better for you. We are all here for you on the forum. -- Amy Meyer At Thu, 19 Aug 2004, anonymous wrote: > >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >I have been taking depot provera over a year now, and start to notice >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >changes in my mood. i cry a lot, get upset easy, don`t have the energy >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >to do my work, and have attacks of nervousness and paranoia. i didn`t >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >think about the shot having anything to do with that until i realized >-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >the changes came at the same time as the medication. i don`t take any >other medication, or ever did. can anybody tell me if i am trying to >find a cheap excuse for my state of mind, or that i should find another >birth control method? i do love the convenience of being on depot >provera, and cannot take estrogen. but i need to change something >quickly if i don`t want to loose my husband, upset more of my friends, >and most of all, get so fed up with being me...
