> I'm so sorry that you find yourself in this state.
I can't say I've heard of the med you're taking currently
but it sounds like it may be a bad bargain -- lots of loss
with very little gain, unless it's keeping suicide at bay.I too deal with chronic depression tho went it recurred for
the 3rd time, I simply stayed on the AD med.
Is there a possibility of adjunctive therapy -- using 2 AD meds in
combo?
The only other insight I can pass on is that the standard dosages of
meds are simply some number of mgs that most people responded to -- it
says nothing about you and your body. For instance, my pdoc doesn't give
up on paxil until 60 mgs -- tho this strategy would be disastrous if you're
having horrible side effects..
Sorry I can't be more helpful but there are people here who have lots of
suggestions for other meds.
Take care :) S.
