DOES YOUR DEPRESSION/ANXIETY EVER SEEM WORSE AT TIMES THAN OTHERS?

[Jmmmfi4]

EVEN IF YOU'RE ON MEDICATION?

WHAT DO YOU DO DURING THOSE TIMES?

I have had anxiety all of my life. When I grew up and became a woman I was out on an antidepressant that I am still taking to thus day.

I am convinced that they are tinkering with our prescriptions the last two months I recognized they weren't working as well as they always have.

It's not only me that had noticed. It's making antidepressants especially. I take Trazadone for sleep. It's an antidepressant and I've been taking it for many years. This past month when I've taken it and I wake up in three hours. I used to count on a sound 8 hour sleep. So I tried an experiment. I stopped taking them for a weed. Nothing happened - no withdrawals which wasn't the case before. 🤷🏼‍♀️
What are we going to do. One person I know with severe depression - his pills weren't working all of a sudden so the doctor doubled his dose.

They really have it over us and there's nothing else to do about it.
