[depressedgal]

I've taken MANY anti-depressants over the years with very little effect other than bad side effects. Took opiates (prescription pain killers) for a short period last year and I was blown away at the effect it had on not only pain, but depression and anxiety. Never felt better. Docs don't/can't prescribe these meds for mood disorders which I find very frustrating as they are truly the only meds that help me. Anyone else had this experience? There must be a way they can be used in low doses on a tightly monitored schedule. Takes discipline but it must be an option. Anyone doing this successfully?
