Answers:
FIRST THING: If your feeling suicidal, call your psychiatrist emergency number!. No go!? talk to family and friends or check yourself into a hospital!.

It might be that the dosing is inadequate, or that the drug might not work for you at all!. You should be seeing a psychiatrist every three months (once stable) while taking these medications so he/she can evaluate your mental health and medication!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes drugs have nasty side effects!. Nothing is worse for you!. Give up all drugs including smoking the very addictive nicotine!. Then you have a chance to be happy!. http://morehappiness!.notlong!.com

If you do not have enough money, you could take drugs, like alcohol or crack, to feel better and many do!. But that does not cure it!. The cure is to make more money!. If you are depressed, the cure is not to take a drug, like Prozac!. The cure is to be happier!. If you have panic or anxiety, which everyone feels at one time or another, the cure is not to take drugs!. The cure is to feel more tranquility and peace of mind!. See site below for more on this!.

Kevin Trudeau says in his best selling book, Natural Cures They Do Not Want You to Know About, "All illnesses and diseases are caused by the same things; (1) too many toxins in the body; (2) nutritionally deficiencies; (3) electromagnetic chaos exposure; (4) mental and/or emotional distress!." "The most effective way to cure and prevent disease is by getting the toxins out!." "One very powerful cleanse is, of course, fasting!." "Drugs only suppress symptoms, and they cause disease because they are toxic!." In More Natural Cures Revealed, Kevin Trudeau says "The facts are clear, drugs, both prescription and non-prescription, do not make you healthier, they make you sicker!. Drug companies are not interested in your health!. Drug companies only want you to buy and use more drugs!. If you want to cure yourself of any disease you have and remain healthy, you must eliminate all non-prescription and prescription drugs!."

Kevin Trudeau says in Natural Cures,
"In the Natural Cures book I talk about the fact that the sun does not cause skin cancer!. The sun is needed for life!. If you do not spend time in the sun you will be sick!. The sun is vital for health, longevity and to be disease free!.!.!.!.Without sunlight you develop diseases including depression, lack of energy, poor sleep, poor digestion, weight gain, arthritis, constipation, bad breath, body odor, cancer, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, ADD, stress, headaches, susceptibility to colds, flus and viral infections, PMS, male erectile dysfunction, loss of sexual desire in women, infertility, anxiety and more!."

Leo Galland, MD, director of the Foundation for Integrated Medicine in NYC, says that exposure of the unblocked eye to sunlight causes the pineal gland in the brain to make less melatonin!. "This hormone, which may cause symptoms of depression, is produced at increased levels in the dark!." The National Mental Health Association reports that when the days are shorter and darker, the production of melatonin increases!.

Mine gives me memory loss and lack of concentration and my job requires high attention to detail so Im in trouble at work through taking medication that my workplace doesnt know about!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it sure is possible, medications have a lot of unpleasant side-effects!. I currently take 10mg of Lexapro myself and it works great for anxiety!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The medicine could be an issue, sounds like talking with a therapist may be better for you than medicine, but do not stop taking the lexapro on your own!. Always discuss stopping meds like lexapro with your doctor to avoid even more harmful side affects!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
