Well, I went to the pdoc yesterday and told her everything. I suggested stopping all meds and seeing what happens. She didn't think that was a good idea and replaced my Klonopin with Seroquel. My dosage of Lamictal is also on the rise again. I'm increasing by 25mg/week until I reach 200mg. I guess since it took so long to get to this point (with Lamictal) it would suck to go off it; realize it really was working and then have to start up all over again. Has anyone had any experience with Seroquel?

lam: I'm with ya on the bar scene. It's not fun when you're not drinking. Being 28 and single with friends that drink is difficult. My pdoc was insistant that I not drink and we set a goal: no booze for one month, not even a sip. I have a wedding next month (the first of 8 I've been invited to this year already- eiw) and I know I'll have a few drinks there, but I'm going to give this a try.
