I have a depression and it occurred at the time my father died of a heart attack. Ive been suicidal and I have tried to kill myself and have made plans to kill myself. I have been hospitalized for this and I am on medication now, Prozac which helps but I still have lingering problems. I feel the imbalance of chemicals in the brain and I have difficulty with perception and I struggle with getting through the day. I act impulsively at times and I dont know what the problem is...I just got on Invega Sustena from the Mental Health clinic I am a patient at but I wonder if its going to cure me all of the way. Please help!
Hi, Thanks for writing to us, Prozac is fluoxetine, an antidepressant which is used in depressive disorder. Since it has not been able to control all your symptoms adequately, and maybe due to reasons that the doctor thought necessary after examining you, has prescribed, Piperidine. This Chat Doctor.  Yes it may help resolve all your problems. If it does not, do not worry, there are more options which your psychiatrist can guide you with. Hope this helps,
