I’m on an Abilify injection, you would think I’d stop being depressed, but no, tomorrow is the day I go in to get on another antidepressant. I just don’t find joy in things I’m wondering if it’s even gonna help. I just have an existential crisis like everything in the world just feels so dumb and meaningless. I find myself hoping to die in my sleep and experience the afterlife. I got all this cool stuff now but idk just nothings doing it. Whatever, small potatoes, be thankful and grateful I know but I think I have a chemical imbalance. What is your favorite antidepressant and why?
I take Sertraline as I felt the same way for a long time, and then last October it got unmanageable and my doctor prescribed it to me.
It dug me out of a hole. I was close to quitting my job and I was getting myself in a real state.
I am thankful that this has worked for me.

My favorite antidepressant is a long, tall drink of water. When I am dry, the world looks hostile to me. So, get a drink of water and light exercise to work it through.
I know it’s not the answer you were looking for, but it works for me.

I’m doing pretty good on my cocktail, I take Saphris, Rexulti, Topamax and Cymbalta, they are working together to keep me from getting too low. Depression has been a life long battle for me but I finally feel pretty good. The Saphris and Topamax act as mood stabilizers, the Rexulti and Cymbalta act as antidepressants and I also take fish oil which helps. Then if I need to I use a full spectrum bulb for 10 to 15 minutes at a time to give me a little boost in mood. It took 7 years to find this combination. And it took many months for the Cymbalta to work before I knew that it was the one I needed, so don’t give up.

I’m very moody, but citalipram (cylexa) helps a little. I’m having negative thoughts a lot and my health isn’t very good.
