Hey hun!

I saw a Psychiatrist and was prescribed Lovan, (street name Prozac) and I found it improved my mood, but I was a little stunted creatively!. I am a musician and artist, so that was bad for me!.

The doctor helped me a little bit, but because when I first started going i had to kind of update him on everything in my life it kinda sucked!.

I went off medication on my own, just cause I kept forgetting to take it!. It hasnt been too bad, some days every so often I get really down, but thats because I havent been working and I've had relationship problems!.!.

All in all!.!. It was fine!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yet I've been to a psychiatrist and I've been on meds for 10 years!. Although I only saw the psychiatrist for an hour and she gave me meds too early at 16 yrs so my brain wasn't fully developed and now my brain depends on my meds for the rest of my life!.

ive been to a psychiatrist for ansiety (sp!?) i was put on depression pills because my school nurse is a moron!.!.!.!.!.im like the complete opposite of depressed!.!.!.!.!.the doctor obviously didnt help me because i didnt need the help the reason my nurse thought i was depressed is because i have stomach problems and she said they were all in my head well i just had surgery for it and they took out my gallbladder so obvioulsy it wasnt in my head!Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes,yes,yes i went willingly, the doctor does help me to see things I did not realize myself!. The benefit has been in having someone who is willing to look at , in my case, my depression and what the causes of it has been and what some remedies could be!. My doctor listens for 1/2 of the time then he offers some comments!. There is a give and take in the process!. I generally don't feel better when I go off the meds after having been on them for a while and then stopping!. But your case may be differnent!. If you are considering going to a psychiatrist or a psychologist - just go with an open mind!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was on meds for about a year 1/2!. I didn't want to be but the really did help me!. I went to a Psych & a Therapist!. The Psych just listened to me to see if I needed to stay on Meds!. The Therapist was who really helped me!. At first I hated it & felt bad all the time but I knew tht was what was going to help me so I stayed with it!. I felt that I could be off of my Meds & be ok but my Psych thought different so I stopped going to her!. And I am good, great in fact!. I am at the happiest that I have been ever!. I just needed to be on my Meds & talking to someone to help me get thru a relly depressing time in my life!. I'm good now!.
Email me if you want to talk some more!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, I've been to a number of them!.
And some are better than others!.
I've had ones that were really good and others that probably shouldn't of been practicing!.
Most Psychiatrist handle medication management and you have a counselor for cognitive (talk) therapy!.
Some people only need meds for a short time and some need them for a lifetime!.
But one thing important!. Be involved in what is prescribed!.
It's your body and you have the right to know the side effects, etc that can go along with them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, I'm still seeing him plus a counselor!.I am on meds and both pro's advise me!.Still on antidepressants!.I went willingly!.I was a mess!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I been to a psychiatrist and taken medication before,

the psychiatrist can help you depending on what is your situation but I wouldnt recommend taking medication, your body get so used to it and that it mess you up!.
In other words medication becomes a necesity in your life and the more time you spend with it the harder its to stop (you get side effects and other crazy stuff)

plus the medication didnt help me at all just got me worseWww@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, I've been to a psychiatrist, I've been seeing one once a month for five years now!. I went willingly, and still go willingly!. They're there to help, after all!.

Yes, my doctor has helped me!. She helped me find the right medication for my condition and got me into hospital when I needed to be there!. And then out again once I didn't!

I'm on three medications at the moment and I've found them very helpful!. I don't get many side effects so I'm fortunate there!. I stopped antidepressants once, but immediately got much worse and wound up in the hospital, so I'm not planning on doing that again soon as I obviously still need them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
