Symptoms of depression include persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or loss of interest in activities. Anxiety involves persistent feelings of worry, fear, unease, and difficulty concentrating. Both can also cause physical symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, and sleep troubles.
Whether these symptoms are new to you or if you’ve been treated previously, we’re here to help.
Commonly prescribed medications include: Fluoxetine (Prozac), Escitalopram (Lexapro), Sertraline (Zoloft), Venlafaxine (Effexor XR), Citalopram (Celexa), Mirtazapine (Remeron) …and more.
