I this dumb? To get on a med, to get off of one??

Posted by qbsbrown on January 28, 2006, at 19:08:03

I'm getting off of the benzos. Tried cold turkey w/ klono, to no avail. I've switched to valium (longer half-life), now on a painfully slow taper (ashton method, im might speed it up a lil).
Horrible depression, tiredness, lethargy and apathy, in a time when i need to be bustin my butt to find a job in a foreign country.
Doc thought i could try lamictal or wellbutrin while im tapering.
NO, no SSRI has ever worked, so don't mention them. And i can't get Cymbalta here.
I'm willing to give wellbutin a chance, just don't want to jeopardize or protract my taper of valium.
What do you guys think? To med or not to med,,,..
PS- I'm now in China, i am my own doc, lol. Plus people here are far more knowledgable than any shrink i've been to in the states.
