did the brave thing and spoke with my gp
about my ed of the last 4 years, i'm being
bumped onto some specialist or another but
she wants me to think about taking
medication along with the therapy. She
mentioned the names but my mind was racing
as I was so nervous and trying to find an
escape route.
Anyway, paranoia aside, I hate not knowing
what is expected of me to eat, so, can
anyone fill me in on the likely drugs
given to those with self esteem
issues/binging/purging the whole nervous
bullemia shennangians?
Danke

Hey congratulations! On telling your
doctor, I hope it felt as good as it did
when I told my doctor. Did the doctor
say they wanted to put u on
anti-depressants they put me on lexapro,
others r wellbutrin and prozac.

Hi
i was medicated with attention deficit
disorder drugs - dexamphetamines, which
were supposed to suppress my appetite, but
all they did was completely screw my head
up. I dont recommend that for anyone! At
the moment I am on lexapro which is
selective seratonin re-uptake inhibitor,
basically an anti-depressent, but I have
also been on zoloft too. I find the
lexapro the better of the three. Be
warned though, if you are put onto any of
these, so not stop taking them cold
turkey. You can really mess with the
chemicals in your brain.
