You've listed a ton of symptoms. So you feel bad quite a bit, huh. Don't know how you are, but try eating a lot more fresh veggies & fruit, cut back on junk food & get some excersise, especially with the nicer weather coming up ( I know it has not been so good this past week). Get an MP3 player, IPOD, phone, put on some songs that will get you pumped up & go for a walk or jog. Drink a good amount of water too & get enough sleep. It sounds like BS, it's so simple, but do you take care of yourself as good as you can??? If you have chronic problems that are not going away, getting your body in the best working order you can should lessen your symptoms or at least make them more manageable and less severe, I would think. You may be overthinking your symptoms too. The more you concentrate on them, the more you will notice them. I'm not saying you don't have some chronic problem, but the healthier you are, the smoother your body runs, the less things will bother you (stress & physical illness). Don't forget to ease into things if you havent been eating healthy/exercising much lately.
Might not be exactly what you're looking for, but I hope it helps a little.

Amber,
WOW!!! I am sorry you feel that bad. I know how you feel though. I have had a headach for 11 weeks now, and gotten no answers to what it is. My head MRI has come back as normal as well and they are telling me it is a symptom of my "depression" and no one seems to listen to me either. I went to go see a neurologist about a week ago and she had me get a brain MRI with and without contrast as well as a MRA(it shows the blood vessels) and put me on a medication that blocks the pain signals so that I can somewhat function adn not want to blow my head off. When I started reading your message, I was thinking some type of tumor, but after I continued and read how you feel better with antibiotics, I feel like you have some type of brain infection. I know that it is SUPPOSE to show up in your blood work, but sometimes it doesnt. Dont ask me how that happens, but it has happened to me, only not a brain infection. these doctors need to get off their dang im the best pedistal and listen to you. Next time you go to a neurologist ask them about amitripitylin to help stop the pain signals until you can get to the bottom of why you are having the headach and so that you can live your life to some extent..... I also believe that the Zoloft has something to do with it. My mom works in a Pharmacy and when I was prescribed it, she went and told the doctor HELL NO. It has some pretty bad reviews and can cause some serious health issues. On top of that too, you are probably going through some withdraw symptoms, but I dont believe they are the biggest part of it. Hope I helped a little bit.
P.S. I am almost 19 as well and a medical major, but have most of my knowledge from 1st hand. I truly hope that you get some relief soon.

You have no idea what you are on about. Exercise and eat fruit and veg? It is quite obvious that this person is either suffering from HPPD or Candida overgrowth, or something similar. Go find better things to waste your time on than making people feel worse.

Amber, I am so sorry you have to go through such frustration to find out what is wrong. I have gone through years of frustration trying to figure out why I have such weakness and fatigue at times. Diagnosis 20 years ago was "chronic fatigue syndrome". I was given Prozac at first, took it for 1.5 years, and quit because I couldn't stand the way it made me feel so wired. Most of the antidepressants make me feel wired or exhausted. Maybe getting off street drugs is easier than SSRIs, and these drugs are so easy to get! The withdrawals force people to get back on them. I really wonder what they do to the brain. We are told they are not addictive, but I don't believe it. It sounds like you could have some sort of low grade infection somewhere in your system that is affecting your nervous system. Have you been checked for Epstein Barr? I would totally eliminate all junk food and eat only the foods like God made them. There are so many additives in processed foods that you could be sensitive to as well. It's just so hard to tell what this is. Have you had an oral glucose tolerance test? Could your blood sugar be dipping too low at times? Personally, I wish I had never allowed myself to be put on any antidepressant. I haven't felt right since. I was initially put on Prozac when going through the final stage of a divorce. Grief is a natural response to a loss, and is best left to run its course. The Prozac interferred with my sleep, made me so I couldn't sit still, etc. Right now there are only two antidepressants approved for people under the age of 24, and Prozac is one of them. Please keep talking to those who understand. Otherwise you could wind up feeling like a nutcake, which you don't need. I wish you the best. Hang in there.
