What causes mood disorders when on medications for depression?
human
Hello, I have been taking Nexito 10 Mg for my depression and I have been taking 2 tablets a day since a month. I noticed severe mood swing yesterday and also had high suicidal tendency and attempted to hang myself, fortunately the cloth tore apart and I fell down. I realized that I was unconscious for a while and when I gained my conscious I noticed pain in my hand and head as I hit the ground. After a while, I was weeping and had a push with in to end my life. I took 12 tablets of Nexito 10 mg and went to sleep as I was under the impression that this would make me to sleep sound and I may overcome the tendency. My question is that, while I am under medication and been taking Nexito 10 mg for a month, why do I still have these mood disorders?

Hi,I read your query and can understand what you are going through. You seem to be suffering from severe depressive episode and are having suicidal ideas as a result. Since you have attempted suicide, I would consider this as an emergency situation and would advise you to talk to your family members immediately and preferably get admitted in a residential care facility. Although you are taking antidepressant (nexito, 20 mg/day for a month), still you are having symptoms.This means that may be now, your medication needs a review and some other anti-depressant like venlafaxine can be tried. You must immediately contact your psychiatrist and talk to him about your suicidal attempt.Best wishes.
