Suggest Treatment For Severe Depression And Anxiety

Hi, I m reading that vyvanse and sertraline have major interaction if taken together. Dr. prescribed 50 mg daily of sertraline and 30 mg vyvanse for treatment of depression and anxiety. I am concerned that it could increase thoughts of suicide. After 1 suicide attempt, the dosage was increased to 100 mg of sertraline. What are your thoughts?

Hello,

Consult a psychiatrist and get evaluated.

Avoid unwanted stress and anxiety. Relaxation techniques like yoga and meditation can help a bit.

You might require antidepressants for further treatment.
