gabapentin helps both my nerve pain and depression/anxiety. I also smoke weed which helps tons. I also take amitriptyline

I've tried a lot of antidepressants, ssris, mood stabilizers from a young age. I've tried prozac, lexapro, Zoloft, buspar, and a lot of others. if you have any questions about those you can feel free to ask me.

There’s many! A good medication for anxiety is well Butron. Ones for depression that didn’t work for me but may work for you are Lexapro, Prozac, And abilify. Good luck!

Cymbalta works best for me and I’m sensitive to meds

Lexapro was the first medicine I tried and so far it's working well for me. There are a lot of potential side effects that not everyone will be ok with, and I know Lexapro doesn't work for everyone. My prescriber started me on a very low dose to see how I reacted to it before putting me on a higher dose. Maybe try that?
