Greetings,
For years (9)I have been on effexor.(300mg) with fairly good results until it started to lose some of its effectiveness. Now I am on effexor 225mg, welbutrin 150mg.& lexapro 5mg. I feel pretty good, but the 1 big change I have noticed is that my night time binge eating has all but stopped. When I was on the higher dose of Effexor no matter how hard I tried I would eat at night uncontrolably(Carbs mostly). I also seem to be sleeping a little better. I still struggle with anxiety-stress during the day. I feel as though I need something all the time for that. I have klonopin, and take it (.5mg) 2-3 times a week. I feel like I need somthing all the time for the anxiety and stress, but am concerned about addiction. My Pdoc says I should not be overly concerned about it, but he does seem very cautious about prescribing it. I do not think he comprehends the intensity of the anxiety-stress I am experiencing or does not have an answer, any suggestions
Thanks
Ray
