I agree with Dr. Beverly, that some people may need these meds for chemical imbalances, I did not mean to imply everyone should not take them. In my case, I was very depressed about what was happening to my face, mouth, and hair/scalp, so it might have been a good thing that I felt numb for awhile
That being said, I was also fainting with seizure type activity and the Dr. put me on Klonopin (baby dose) 0.5 mg...this was after discontinuing antidepressants, and I never had another fainting episode. This fits in with what Dr. Beverly is saying. They, also, diagnosed me with ADD, which was really the brain fog, but prescribed Adderall, and boy did that help the fatique and fog. My point is that it is a matter of trial and error, because everyone is different.
