For those of you trying medication, I want you to feel empowered to go back as many times as it takes to get a medication that works as well as possible with as few side effects as possible. You will have to be your own advocate. Unless you are verrrrry lucky, expect that you'll learn more about your choices than most family doc's will know. When it comes to your health- you deserve the very very best. I wish I could say it will happen quickly. Maybe you will be lucky. It can take years to get the right dose and kind. You can also always go back to something if you decide to try another and it doesn't work. The medications might be considered restricted but wanting to get this right does not make you a criminal.

Agree! But if you go see a psychiatrist and don’t rely on family docs for med guidance (in my experience), the psychiatrists have a lot more tricks up their sleeves and figure it out more quickly.
