they seem to unharden me. i have a lot of anxiety, stiffness and akathisia, i have an overdriven paralysis that ruins everything i do. benzos help markedly (but far from perfectly), so that was why i was wondering if i should look back to anticonvulsants for maintenance. lamotrigine has helped modestly before. i guessed maybe via the same way it helps chronic fatigue according to how dr. jay a. goldstein treated his patients. stimulant-like medication comes off as a bit too rough for me, which is not something i can handle the way it tends to happen. i tried ritalin again when i was in the hospital. that didn't work for me at all. and i've tried dexedrine, concerta and desipramine before. they are far from solutions.
i was going to try, again, to get amisulpride somehow. through the government's special access programme. i thought that would go well with lamotrigine... that the lamotrigine would also keep me from developing tolerance to the amisulpride. (by being anti-glutamate) but maybe not being perfect by not having gaba -ergic effects?? i don't know. i think it should have possibly enough calming effects on its own.
its hard to explain how i live to most people, so maybe it is hard to relate. i am mostly paralysed in a mess of confusion when it comes to really anything. i am almost evicted because of my hoarding. its been an impossible situation just to deal with my own living space, anything even just baby-steps beyond that has been impossible to touch in my life.
