Liver Friendly AntiDepressants - Open thread
I know that Ativan is metabolized by the kidneys, therefore most likely liver friendly for anxiety.
Does anyone know of a liver friendly antidepressant?
I thought I could find an increased level of knowledge by seeking help from a very large local hospital's Director of Behavioral health, but once again I found an idiot with a degree.
I asked for liver friendly meds, and after he finshed looking at me like a monkey looks at a marble, he thought it best that I ask my liver specialist if he/she knew.
Gosh, I guess I can wait FOUR MONTHS.
Please help me, this is my last chance at getting some help.

Thank you, love. Enjoy the debates tonight...and everything else you can.
I meant to say that if I could read the report better, I would post it.
And thanks again califia, I will try to enjoy something/anything/everything!

Great advice, Cuteus. One of the best arguments I've ever seen for doing talk therapy. Want2live, I hope you'll bring it here before it gets that bad again, because there's something about telling our story and really being heard that restores our will to go on like nothing else.
Living with this disease, on top of whatever other challenges each of us deals with, is very crazy making. But this is it, the one life we have to live. However long we have, whatever shape our liver is in when we leave, we live our lives moment by moment. Don't let anyone steal your laughter, babe. When you see the abyss opening before you, throw flowers into it one by one.
The very religious (and mystical) Chasidic Jews entered the gas chambers dancing and singing in praise of life. That's some act to follow, eh?

I thought wellbutrin was one of the worst. I am going to stop by the pharmacy and get a better copy of the documentation that the pharmacy faxed to me. I wasn't having much luck on searching for this kind of info on the net.
And congrats on the still clear, I am so very happy for you, I can't imagine how good you must feel, thank God Bill.

I truly wish we could be your therapy, and all you need to get better, but we can't be. What we are is the compliment to whatever direction you take in achieving your health. WHen I worked at the Crisis HL, we were like adjuvant therapy to one on one, meds and support groups. If the person did not continue his one on one, he could not call us, as we were not to be substituted for his therapy.
I did some research a while back in hopes to get answers for my schizoprenic/paranoid sister. It is extremely sad to hear her speak about the people that have been building a "case" against her for 5 yrs, hiring helicopters to follow her and buying the police force in California. they even engaged the help of my brother and older sister. she only trusts her husband, kids, my mom and it seems, me.
She seemed well while on medication and therapy. But quit the therapist and sometime later, without the direction of the psychiatrist, decided to quit the meds also. now she is stumbling in the world of delusion, and believing there is nothing wrong with her, and certain that we will learn she was right all along, when she ends up in jail.
a good therapist will assist in redirecting negative behavior and thoughts in order to keep a balanced chemistry in the brain. The meds assist with inmediate relief until the therapy has a chance to work.
I hope you can find someone you can connect with for the one on one, and a good support group.
Bad feelings do seem to be minimized as they exit our mind through our mouths, I don't know how it works, but it does.

Here are some good sites that will allow you to do your own research. My father is a retired Pharmacist and even at his peak and with all the continuing education he would check on anything he was not 100% sure of. But I find today the walmart Kmart pharmacist are lacking in the Hep-C meds also what to take and what not to.
