Hi everyone,

I found this by mistake but I think it might help me. I suffer from depression, low self-esteem and anxiety. I am out of work right now and pretty broke. My fiance is working, thankfully, but we are barely making it. I seem to have this problem when I work at new jobs (I break down and cry because I way way too hard on myself) it has happened at almost every job I have had. I have been taking medications for about 11 years. Mostly Prozac and Trazodone. However recently in the last two months my medical doctor has switched me from the Prozac to Effexor. I don't like the Effexor. I am just really frustrated and lost. Just wanted to introduce myself.

Peace, a place where you can always see the sun: Day or night. ♥

Keep in mind that it usually takes a while to select and regulate the dosage of medication.
