Ok here is where im at in a nutshell.Finaly with the right tweak after a thousand my cocktail works,works strong,and solid.
Anxiety for most part killed,prob poss in a spontonous situation but genral anxity locked in.
Now,two things begin to happens,obsessivness,i.e working on wii i zero in,nothing elese matters,obssessed.
Internet,beat addiction,now back on ten fold.
Cant seem to do things,leave the house mainly.
Last,dont want to go to sleep,cant sleep,up all night ,pattern of morning bedtime and noon waking becomming norm.
Bouts of rage still around.
I am rapid cycle,what is said to be the most least understood,and hardest to even treat.
The industry comes out with this idea of taking anti depressants away,and using monotherapy mood stablizers.
First to protest this are neurologist.Stating they have trouble themselves with non depressed patinets becomming depresson on the anti seizure meds,they are cns depressants,that alone tells u why they should not be used alone.Also and to what i believe is criminal is the term mood stablizer never exsisted.They created it,used strictly aed,anti seizure meds,depakite,gabpentin,topamax,etc,and claimed it to be official mood stablizers,most people dont even know the meds they use are seizre meds.
Also strong studies show the removal,and non removal of the anti depressant had no significant effect on the disorder,so the entire claim is based on nothing.If my anti depressant was taken,id surly go insane personaly.
So now im left searching,do i look for a med to treat the new symtpoms,or look into the meds added that killed the depssion finaly.
I dont want to drop a med,depression is haulted,how can i chance loosing that?
But upong hardcore searching,all i got new was the addition of low dose stimulant to mood stablizer shown to be benifit,so ill do that right away.I dont know what to think now.
Parnate 50 mg am/klonopin .5/gabpentin low dose/campral low dose/adaptol low dose.This is repeated 2x.

consider Zyprexa, the only thing is it's still a bit expensive, but it's effect's on mood are positive, unlike other nuerotropic meds like Thorazine that are basically chemical "lobotomies" that tune out all emotion. I've read low doses of them are good, but still...they degenerate dopamine, and there are more comlications with older nuerotropic meds.
Zyprexa has good effect's on the mood, the only thing ... that is a side effect that is definetly known is weight gain.
Ask... if you can switch to lorazepam, it's not as strong as klonopin [and also it doesnt cause depression as bad]
I was watching how bruttely they used to treat people that they didnt know what was wrong with them, so it was better back in the old day's to just drink..intead of going into an old asylum...ugh! i looked at video's of that it's haunting.

Ask if maybe you can add adderall, or something, but ... Zyprexa will level you out, and cause more sleep and it seems to cancel out negative emotions usally at higher doses [15-20mg]
that's all I can think off to give advice right now...
keep me updated:)

Thanks bro.Yess zyprexa is a heavy hitter,but i lift,and meds caused me to bulk with muscle and ilook like a damn bear,and i used to look slim and felt good.
I did anyother bloot wrenching search,used all the tricks,and nothing,so for now my plan is to,and its at night cause daytime i forgot to mention im fine,is to prepare small doses of klonopin/gabpentin/ and i use a substance most know which im addicted to ,but i will add the two others every hour in mini doses to keep a constant level of mood,i read this once and it worked and i just forgot about it,so im thinking this will keep me stable at night while actualy letting me,omg dare i say it,feel good?
The industry doesent seem to want that,they seem to want us feel flat and feeling good would almost immediatly be a maniac side effect.
Lol well enough as u can see searching all day can p- u off when u see the same crap over and over.
Goog night babble.
