WHY???
Question:
why wont any doctors help me when i feel this way??? read the med stuff if you want… but please look at the depression, attention, etc… cant some of this be helped with medicine? Should I have to wake up every single day making a list "The 10 best ways to die today" ?????? Jamie Detailed Explaination: Depression: I am too depressed on a daily basis to have any real desire to do anything. Everything is a hassle, and almost nothing seems worthwhile. I have been searching for something meaningful to do, however, everytime I find something, I lose intrest / Motovation / attention very quickly. Attention: Poor, very hard to stay focused on one topic for more than several minutes at a time without my mind wandering and going off to a different subject. This makes it very very difficult to get anything done. Motovation: Extremely unmotivated. Almost no motovation. Lack the desire to do almost anything. All I really want to do is lay around and sleep or watch tv. Losing intrest in taking care of myself and getting to appointments. If something does not change soon, I feel I will barely have the motovation to get out of bed. Anxeity: Somewhat better with the Indernal / Propranal. *** Cognitive Approaches: E-mailed some people about re-training / entry level job programs. I really have no desire for these basic jobs, and don’t have any motovation to go to do much any kind of work. My social skills and interaction are still poor, and my anger is often out of perportion and is uncontroalable. *** Thoughts on Medication: I don’t think that the luvox, and effexxor are really doing much of anything at all right now. Since we switched to the 10mg dexidrine from the 15mg dexidrine er, I have become more depressed, and my attention and desire seems to be worse. The Inderall LA seems to help some with the Anxeity, and I think I want to see about moving the dose of it up higher at the end of the first month. I would like to consider discontinuing effexxor and luvox and going onto Adderal XR, and Selegiline (Eldepryl). I would like to continue on the folowing: Inderall LA 80 mg (Anxeity / Migrane Prevention) Requip .25 at bed (PLMD / RLS) Klonloplin 1mg BID (Anxeity) Clartin-D /q (Allgeries) Librax PRN (IBS) Lomotil PRN (IBS) Hydrocodone PRN (Migranes) Tylenol 1-2grms PRN (Migranes) Naproxen 220-440 PRN (Migranes / Muscle Pain) I have been diagnosised with the following: Executive disfunction Aspburgers OCD ADD Depression Generalized Anxeity Disorder with Specfic Phobias High Cholestoal

When you take a large number of meds you can get to the point that you are taking more meds to treat the side effects of the meds you are already taking. Somewhere (I don’t know where it is) there is a point of diminishing returns. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -Should I have to wake up every single day making a list "The 10 best ways to die today" ??????

Has this gotten worse since you started taking the Inderal? Attention: Poor, very hard to stay focused on one topic for more than several minutes at a time without my mind wandering and going off to a different subject. This makes it very very difficult to get anything done.
