I know you'll all heard about how I worked in a psych ward at one time and I read lab results on all the patients cause I was the charge nurse. And here's what I noticed. I noticed a larger than average of patients had thryroid problems usually low in depression. Was it a coincidence or what? As the week after I got married my thryroid became low and at first for two days I was very fatigued but then on the third day my anxiety was out out control. Panic attacks. Had to raise xanax and started synthroid which worked for around two months. Then I experience vertigo so bad I had to crawl on the floor to the bathroom. This neccesitated a trip to the ER and an injection of 2mg of ativan and antivert. Well I never was the same that began my spiral down into the world of antidepressants. I know thyroid is a hormone and how come they now want you to take an Ad for five days premensturally for Pms Another hormone. So does anyone think hormones play a part in anxiety/depression. just my own theory any thoughts. Love Phillipa
