Clinical Depression

Posted by Greg on March 28, 2000, at 14:54:47

About 5 weeks ago I completed Detox to kick the Fentanyl
patch. Since that time I have felt absolutely horrible.
I've been extremely tired, having chest pains and can feel
my heart beating in my chest almost constantly. I went to
see a new doctor recently who diagnosed me with clinical
depression. He started me on Effexor, but it made me even
more tired than before and I was becoming very forgetful.
He has changed me to Wellbutrin which has been triggering
anxiety attacks (I believe)for which he has given me Xanax.
The Xanax puts me to sleep. I can't seem to win for losing.
Can anyone share a similar experience with me so that I
can have some hope for feeling relatively normal (whatever
normal is...) again? I feel like I would be better off
having stayed on the pain meds. Please help if you can.

Greg
