Hi everyone. I am a responsible guy in my upper 20's. I don't use any recreational drugs. I smoked weed maybe 4 times in my whole life. That is the extent of my drug use. Unfortunately for so many years now I have been plagued with anxiety and depression along with horrific insomnia. I have tried the non phamacological route going to a well known "sleep psychologist" which didn't help at all. I have been prescribed various benzos etc. Various sleeping pills. I refuse to take ssri's because I don't want the sides associated with that. I know 2 people in real life who suffered irreversible sides from 2 different ssri's. I do have to say that Viibryd has me curious. Anyhow, that's my story. Just a person with crippling anxiety and depression who can't always go to the dr to get the meds he needs. My life depends on these medications. I wake up every morning with anxiety that is insane. I always feel gloomy. I hope to both contribute to the forum and gain support from you guys and gals. Thank you
