Tail Stinger asked:
This is a high stress time. I’ve been diagnosed as depressed. Insomnia is really bad, to the point I dread going to bed. As soon as my head hits the pillow, my mind goes into high gear. Although I have a hard time losing weight normally, I’ve been dropping weight like you wouldn’t believe. Has anyone taken medications for problems like this, & was it effective? I finally got an appointment with the doctor this Friday. I’d appreciate recommendations from anyone. Thank you!

airborne_clay asked:
I have a history of severe depression. My mom is very against medication and counseling, and reluctantly allowed me to go on the lowest dosage of zoloft. It helped, but now she wants me to go off of it and stop going to my doctor. My fear is that my depression will return. What are the chances of my depression returning, and how can I handle it if and when it does?

Lou Lou asked:
I have VERY bad anxiety. To a point where going out of the house is IMPOSSIBLE. I have to self talk myself before I go out if that doesn’t work I leave it in the hands of God. If I am depressed I am only depressed because I can’t control my anxiety. What is a good drug that treats anxiety and not depression?
