BC - just a quick reply, but the acute and intense dysphoric symptoms you describe sound like what sometimes happens to me when I decrease A/D dosages, even by small increments. Some people are VERY sensitive to changes in SSRI or other psychotropic meds (e.g. other types of antidepressants) levels, perhaps due to unusually sensitive/reactive neurotransmitter (NT) receptors. Anyway if you reacted this way to dropping the lex recently then you should probably start feeling better pretty quickly going back up to 10 mgs Lex - that's the long and short of it. I'll read the other board posts to make sure I understand what you've been taking and will then post later OK? In the meantime, hope you are starting to feel better, sweetie, hang in there and take care of yourself. We are all here for you. Love, Lucie
