Can Medication change your Blood?
I take prescription medication for anxiety, depression and Bipolar depression and have noticed something very strange. Before I started taking meds I would constantly be attacked by mosquitoes they really liked my blood.... But for 6 or 7 years now I have had no bites and the few I do the mosquitoes happen to still be attached to me... dead.... Is this in any way normal or odd? I must know!
Whats the difference between anti-anxiety meds and anti-depressant meds?
I am currectly taking anti-depressants because I did suffer from depression and anxiety. I dont suffer that much from depression anymore, well I do, but its my anxiety that mainly brings it on. My anxiety has gotten ridiculously out of control and my depression has diminished. As in most anxiety ridden patients I know I have very very bad anxiety yet I cant help it. I would like to switch from anti-depressants to anti-anxiety meds but I am curious if anyone knows the difference between the two....as in how does it change your mood, will I feel like I am in a daze ( I took Celexa (anti-depressant) before and I stopped taking it because it made me too relaxed, I wound up paying bills late and being lazy a lot of the time, but I was in a better mood) I am now on Zoloft, low dosage. I would really appreciate some input on this if you suffer from bad anxiety.
