  1. CW: Medical, meds question

    Sanity check because I don't trust my doctors an inch:

    My psychiatric meds currently are the following:

    • #Lisdexamfetamine (Elvanse/Vyvanse): 30-40mg / day
    • #Promethazine if needed, to calm down anxiety/to fall asleep if I'm nervous.
    • Vitamin D supplements and HRT which should be irrelevant here.

    I have now additionally been prescribed #Sertraline (50mg/day) to combat my depression.

    I am experiencing high levels of anxiety, nausea and general distress as a response to the sertraline. It is hardly possible for me to live life right now.

    Is this dosage sane?
    Is it advisable to power through the side effects somehow or is this a warning sign? Any interactions here with my other meds that anyone might have missed?
    Is Sertraline as an SSRI safe to take alongside those other two?

  6. ENG: "Studying what happens to people after just eight to 12 weeks on antidepressants is like testing car safety by crashing a vehicle into a wall at 5km/h – ignoring the fact that real drivers are out on the roads doing 60km/h."

    ESP: "Estudiar lo que les ocurre a las personas después de tomar antidepresivos entre ocho y doce semanas es como comprobar la seguridad de un coche estrellándolo contra un muro a 5 km/h, sin tener en cuenta que los conductores reales circulan a 60 km/h por las carreteras."
