I'm *sorry* to hear you're in a similar boat, but it does help to know that I'm not alone in this!
Yes, I could use a pill cutter and break the half (10mg) of Paxil into a five mg dose of Paxil, although having been successful on Paxil before, I think I'd start with 10, see how that felt and go up to 20 if need be (I had been on 30 all those years and don't want to go that *high* if Lamictal can balance out the Paxil).Interesting you mentioned amazing stories about combos of Zyprexa and an SRI/SNRI. I'm currently ON Zyprexa, so it would be even more interesting to see if adding Paxil worked well with that as well as the Lamictal!
Thanks for your info and support, and I sure will post on here how it goes if the pdoc decides to put me back on Paxil. I have a feeling she will simply have me up the Lamictal because she wants to see if I can remain off any SSRI a-d and only need Lamictal.
