Anita,

I get the shakes a little but no other side effects. I started the lithium/vibryd combo 5 years ago. Before that 10 years of trial and error with other ssri’s.  Lexapro worked for awhile but made me really tired.  I was diagnosed at 19 with major depressive disorder and tried Zoloft.  It didn’t work so I medicated with alcohol until 24 then got on lexapro from age 24-30. Tried a few other ssri’s from 30-35.

Started noticing a major issue with anxiety after my depression was under control 5 years ago at age 35. I was perscribed Xanax to use as needed.  Started having panic attacks about 2-3 years ago.  All the anti depressants perscribed to help anxiety bright out more panic. We started trials with others drugs about 6 months ago.   I was Recently diagnosed as on the bi polar spectrum and started the  risperdol about 1 month ago.
