Question: Good morning, I happen to be one of the many people that suffers from depression to a point that it is hard to even leave the house. I am also a heart patient with 2 stints in one artery. My life has fallen to a downward spiral for at least 18 years. My sleeping is not reliable either. I feel very isolated as I do not want to be a burden on another family or friend...although I know I am. For depression I take 300mg of wellburtrin in the morning and 40mg of celexa at night. I also take xanex as needed, like preparing for something that gives me great anxiety, but I mostly take it at night to help me relax and sleep. My heart meds are: ,81mg bayer aspirin, carvedilol 3.125mg am and pm, Citalopram Hydrobromide 40mg, Atorvastatin Calcium 80mg, and Lisinopril 2.5mg. After sharing with my psychiatrist, she suggested Trazodone for sleeping. I have taken it before several years back and have no idea why I discontinued it. My questions are: If Trazodone is an antidepressant, should I also continue to take 40mg of celexa too? Can I slowly discontinue celexa and stay with Trazadone? Do these medications interact alright with one another? Already 5 of my meds have caused huge weight gain, which...to be honest...does not help with depression when nothing fits. I feel lost, overwhelmed, hard to make decisions, harder to truly care and be enthused about anything. Planning and staying focused on anything is a challenge. So, Celexa/Trazodone slow trade off? I thank you for your time to care. I laid my dad to rest last week and am planning grief counseling. I am deeply hurting and missing out on my own life and that of my children and grandchildren.....
