I am on Venalafaxine (Effexor) I am on 450mg. The largest dose they recommend. I have good days and bad days. Lots of pain and stress right now so of course Crohn's exacerbates and causes lots of issues. get to a counselor or a friend that will listen!
Good Luck, Depression is a part of Crohn's disease work on it and vent! It does get better.

Depression by: Anonymous
I've tried Lexapro and prozac, but both make me feel very sick. I take Asacol and wonder if there could be a contraindication to the medications or something.

yes I have suffered from depression for years. I take lexapro and seems to help for the most part. Now when I am exhausted, I get pretty down in the dumps. I have noticed that I go through phases where I am pretty anti-social, I just want to be left alone. But you are definetly NOT ALONE.... =)
