Good starting out drugs??
 
Please give me your opinion on some good first time starter drugs. Or maybe ones to try later and not first. After reading about hopeful and cymbalta I am terrified of that one.

My Neuro app. is wed. and I am trying to understand the drug situation better and I am fearful of what she will perscribe.

thanks

I think I watched that little guy eat popcorn for an hour :)

Every body reacts to these drugs differently. So some information might help you but you need to test them out for yourself. Just lkearn what each drug does and how hard they are to quit if you need to. I also had a bad experience with cymbalta. It infuriated my nerves. I also tried amitriptylene which I didn't like probably cause it was an anti depressant and I don't get along with those. Gabapentin worked for me for a few months, it was a good starter and easy for me to stop. I took Lyrica (gaba enhancer) but it didn't seem to do much but make me tired. Lyrica is a controlled substance but not suppose to be as bad as xanax. I do good on xanax (gaba enhancer and something else, basically tranquilizer) but only can take it once a week cause it makes me depressed and numb to the world and was also horrible to get off of when I had taken it for 3 days.
