Feeling Better after my 4th Medication Change!

Feeling hopeful that this will be my last medication change, but at the same time worried I might be on a "high" from knowing I'm having my surgery. Unfortunately just losing weight won't automatically "fix" me, but I am praying it will help things and I definitely think it will. 

I have tried Pristiq, Prozac, and Cymbalta in the past and all had failed. Pristiq seemed to work for a couple months, then all of a sudden started having no affect. Prozac seemed to have no effect whatsover on me and I really needed a good medication at the time and this was not it for me. Cymbalta barely worked for me and once again ended up having no effect. 

I now am on Lexapro and am actually feeling much better, but I want to wait until after things have simmered to really know for sure.

Side effects: I haven't had bad side effects with any of the medications. Although, some gave me a little insomnia at first.

I know it can be challenging to find the right medication and I am just hoping this is it for me!

Thanks for reading!
