i hope you dont get in trouble for that, cuz i do that often. and like someone else told me, i know my body and myself way better than even the best doctor does...cuz i live with myself :)
so i trust my body.

i think the dose of lexapro that did work is where the tired started, i couldnt stay up past 8:00 and with a little baby it didnt work well for me. (now i have two little ones...not an option) but we'll see.

i know i did go up to 450 with wellbutrin once and thats when they augmented with zoloft, i think they also added 5 of zyprexa it worked well but i gained about 50lbs...
ya they wouldt let me go over 450 due to siezures.

i think the pristiq works very low. just because without it i KNOW i would either be curled up in the closet floor at home or in the hospital. i become very suicidal pretty quickly. so its doing something...just not enough.

but now im wondering something.maybe you can help.
i'm taking gabapentin for as needed anxiety. lately ive been taking between 900-1500 a day. tues when i was really bad i was maxing out. today i've only taken 600...you think the gabapentin could be exacerbating my depression?? when it fixes my anxiety>
or is it the lack of anxiety that makes the depression more noticealbe?

thanks!
b2c.
