Darby,
I thoroughly appreciate your responses. I have not had very good exp. with the SSRIs but currently am on Welbutrin XL 150/day. I was on Lamictial/ Effexor then just lamictal recently . Lamictal is pretty activating however I was on it for about a year adding on various other meds, Clomipramine, ambilify and Serazone i think? I am off it now but my doc may add it onto my Wellbutrin tomorrow? It makes me motivated and i need that as am in between jobs.
I took Neurontin with a combo of Paxil or Zoloft,I can't remember as I am in my 10th year of medication hell including a recent washout. I still don't remember the old me. I have also taken Carbomazapine a while ago too; dont remember the outcome. I have just taken so many meds like all of us here. i feel like i may have to go back and start all over again, again.Like you stated your mind has two thoughts going on and you switch back and forth. I feel ya on that. Or your mind cannot go to step 2 w/o processing step 1. My mind will not let it go even as my conscious mind is willing to let x go. I am so so confused at this point as to what med is making me upset or is just the fact that this illness has taken me out of the game upseting me? I just give up and maybe that's what i need to do and let the pdoc have complete control over me? Because of the same things you mentioned about not letting one thouhgt go for another i just cannot move on without resolution.
I have not tried Topomax or Gabitril yet. All i know is that I want to forget about what i am feeling and thinking and just be. How reat would it be to wake up and your mind not instantly go there? This would depress anyone. Then you get an AD which brings out a different me? God hlep us all. I am just venting I guess here. Viewing these post is my full time job right now as i just don't feel that comfortable leaving the house? I will definitly inquire about Gabitril so many people have said positive things about it. Right now I am addicted with all these posting. Since the signals that my mind receives are all about this self-indulging prison i live in It seems to help to try and understand/help others too. Thanks so much and i don't know if all this made much sense but usually after I eat i get a bit uneasy and lose concentration? In will keep you in formed about if I go on Gabitril.
