i have failed all other anti deps. Can someone please tell me if this is worth a try
Anyone????
I see you have posted about going on Mirt and Effexor, hope it works.
What does MAOI stand for?
But yes, i have suffered fromdepression from childhood.
my method , which have given me substatntial benefit is, cultivating calmness. not ordinary but continous deep calmness which is "ceaselessly unbroken rootedness to unashakeable inner depth of sea of consciousness where surface/ normal waves of anxiety do not travel/affect".
this contnuity of rootedness/connectedness to depth has to become normal and contnous even amidst challenging activity ( overtime, in fact, what appeared to be challenging will become normal and easy)
it is cultivated through slow , very slow meditative breath plus faith ( despite all external manifestations to contrary) . plus physical exercise plus proper diet.
never hurry. always physically and mentally relaxed.
toughest part is beginning. (like rocket has to exercise maximum force in first 1 min. later it is so easy)
may be this can be supplementary method in addition to medication for many.
God bless us all.
I have tried so many different anti-depressents and they did'nt work for me because I was misdiagnosed. i have Bipolar-2 and my new Psych told me that's the problem.
They won't really work in my case so now I'm trying an Antipsychotic Latuda which helps with Bipolar and depression. Maybe you need to see if you have Bipolar-2. Comment back if you have any questions.
How can the psych diagnose bip 2? I dont have big ups and downs but i wonder if i have it as these meds not working, is that how they can tell? Something is badly wrong when i cant tolerate these anti deps they all make me ill. Love to hear how you got conclusion.
