I suffer from depressive disorder, and when untreated, I suffer from major depressions. My docs tried many meds with me, but Paxil was the one that worked for me well.( I didn’t get depressed many years in a row while I was on it) But after longer period of taking paxil, I had increased side effects, and decided to gradually wear it off. The thing is, I’m going to need some medication for sure. Is there any alternative to paroxetine based drug (paxil) that could help me, but with fewer side effects and withdrawal hell?
Any helpful adivces would be very much appreciated.

Do you think that people self medicate because treatment has become very expensive?

Do you know a good website where I could find either homeopathic products or herbal products?

I am looking for alternatives to the usual medication, which, in my opinion, is often toxic (not to mention the side effects).
I would like to use natural products only – i.e. products made of plants and herbs.

Thank you!

Hi.
I am on a medication (not a controlled substance, in this state) and I am unable to request doctor authorization due to my doctor’s vacation.
I risk seizure if I miss enough, and i’m wondering whether or not it would be possible to go to the hospital and speak with a doctor to get an emergency prescription for the next couple of days?
I know I should be more prepared, and yahoo answers is a very preliminary step, mind you, but I just wanted to know if anyone knew an alternative to doctor authorization in a “quasi-emergency?”

I’ve heard that taking decongestants with Concerta can result in heart problems and possibly heart attacks. Is this true? Also, are there alternative medications for nasal decongestants that will work just as effectively, but that will not give me a heart attack? lol
