Anyone on thyroid medication while taking anti anxiety meds?

[JustBe]

If so, which anti anxiety med?  Which thyroid med?  Any positive or negative  experiences?

my sister takes paxil and the thyroid med for low thyroid---not sure exactly which one though.

She is doing well.

I've a friend taking celexa (for bipolar problem) + synthroid. She had horrible reaction to paxil. But celexa is fine for her.

Thanks for your reply.  I appreciate it.

I'm starting on synthyroid next week to augment my antidepressant. I've been on effexor for seven months and its not doing much. My thyroid levels are normal, but the doctor said this can help boost the antidepressant effect. I'm a bit worried that my anxiety might get worse, tho and i don't really want to lose too much more weight

I've always taken Lexapro and Xanax or Ativan as needed. I'm also on Synthroid since I had my thyroidectomy.

I take eutirox for thyroid and efexor (which they say it helps with anxiety too, not just with depression)
Some days I feel ok, other days I feel like crap

I took Synthroid, Xanax XR, and Cymbalta together for 4 years. I had absolutely no problems with the combination. I still take the Synthroid and Xanax XR. Actually, now that I think about it, since coming off of Cymbalta a year ago, my thyroid has been ALL over the place, hypo, hyper. Perhaps there is a connection?

I take synthroid every day.  I also took celexa, and I often take xanax.  I think that my doc told me once there's really no way to have a reaction to synthroid (or the generic) because your body makes it anyway.
