I recently struggled with depression after having a traumatic experience. I'm now slowly recovering and making changes to my lifestyle, but I never thought it would happen to me. Thanks to those who were supportive.

I take Buspar and Effexor together and recently had to boost up the dose of Buspar. My hands start to shake, I get really irritable etc..,Also my mind races and focuses on negative stuff.

Buspar is not addictive. Will not make you sleepy. Recently I also started Trazodone for sleep which works great. I was waking up at night constantly- no more! I hope this helps.

Meditation and travelling can help.

Managing anxiety and depression involves a combination of strategies, such as seeking professional help through therapy or medication, practicing self-care activities like exercise and mindfulness, and building a strong support network of friends and family. It's important to create a personalized plan that addresses your specific needs and to reach out for support when needed. I can recommend you to visit any near by spravato treatment center to overcome mental Stress

I have major depression and very bad stress daily. My Dr told me what could happen if I didn't get my stress under control. Most days lately maybe two mtgs. now I really have been working on it. But my depression. I find myself just dwelling and not saying anything basicly just recording what is causing it all. And my part-time work helps. Maybe in a mtg if things goes right for a month i will be better
