Feel I have better concentration for things like movies. Is a blessing for me because I am a movie buff! Still on another AP though.

if you can get by ok without then there is no need to take it i guess, what are you doing about the pregabalin?

Gonna stay on my pregabalin for the next 6 months until my next pdoc appointment. Kinda figure I don’t want to mess around with too much in a short period of time.

Seroquel, fluoxetine and pregabalin. Apart from a big tummy I handle them pretty well.

I ditched my prozac years ago, like 3 years on meds and i figured the ap was strong enough lol, it was too strong 
But my ap’s seem to always be able to handle my depression, either that or i wasn’t depressed lol, idk if that is possible with sz you’d think it would go hand in hand.

I was given fluoxetine for obsessionality. Am on a biggish dose of 60mg. Ideally I would like to see myself only on an AP but that would be years down the line if at all.

You know i just treated it like it was part of my symptoms, i never really thought i was depressed but then i was with someone for a long time so i had that constant kind of support,
been single for a while now but still not too depressed,
I don’t really see the point in anti depressants but i think its bc of my circumstances, if i got really depressed then i would have to think again.
do you get depressed Jim? is it bad?

I don’t get depressed. I get much more anxious than depressed. But maybe I don’t get depressed because I’m on fluoxetine? I don’t know.
When I was 19 I was clinically depressed for a couple of years. Looking back and comparing to sz now I would say with sz it feels like something is wrong with your brain. With depression it feels like something is wrong with your soul.
