I would like to know what ADs people are taking who have Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroid disease.
I have suffered unrelenting fatigue for ten years before having my thyroid antibodies tested and being diagnosed.
I have tried EVERY AD, antipsychotic augmentation, etc....... I started getting depression about 2 yrs ago.
I take Armour thyroid but I don't think I can put up with this depression AND fatigue much longer. I am not on an optimal dose of Armour yet.
I DID feel some improvement for about 8 weeks last November; almost normal but it didn't last and I am having a hard time upping my Armour dose.Most SSRIs make me more tired; wellbutrin, cymbalta, effexor all make me more tired and very agitated, too.
Is there anything to help with this unrelenting lack of motivation? I am a creative person and it is killing me to feel "paralyzed"
It is such agony to face another day....
Anyone with Hashi's? Hope needed....Thanks. Florence
