I know how you feel. I also was depressed because of my excessive weight. It was challenging for me to drop a couple o pounds, but only hard work can help. Still, I would suggest being careful with antidepressants.

In terms of anti-anxiety meds, it's best to have a conversation with your doctor as they can provide personalized advice based on your specific situation. However, some commonly prescribed medications for anxiety include selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like sertraline (Zoloft) or escitalopram (Lexapro), as well as benzodiazepines like alprazolam (Xanax) or lorazepam (Ativan). Your doctor will take into consideration your medical history, including your previous experience with cdiff, to find the best option for you. Btw, if you need any kind of psychological help, you can find some advice here https://www.mentalhealth.com/disorder/s ... izophrenia , especially if you or someone you want to help have schizophrenia.
