> OK,please remember folks,I,m on your side,but to Anxiety-Free:in your quest to seek out advice on this(and any other Med-related Boards),be aware that there are MANY knowledged,good,caring folks,like the Chemist,out there in Cyberspace that may give to you the advice you seek.Also,they,most always,are merely giving you what THEY think or know pertaining to your questions,but it is not adviseable to adhere,literally,to what they may suggest.In your case,you responded to Chemists suggestions as if your own Dr. had revised your Med schedule.You may have been merely responding,but in the reply,you stated"I think I,ll do as you suggest".Well,that may be best considered by seeing what the prescribing Physician says about these changes.I am only trying to convey a concern that I,ve seen where,in some circumstances,folks have done what was suggested by lay-persons in replies to dosages of meds,and have had tragic results.I,m sure the Chemist will follow up on this post with more insight.One thing is for sure:you were lucky to get a Dr. who is not afraid to Rx meds that are checked by the "Drug-Police"because they are obviously helping you.Many of the so-called Dr.,s out there are so intimidated by the DEA,that they ignore the oath they took and SWORE to,to ease the suffering of their Patients to the best of their ability.Not if it means prescribing a Controlled Substance.I boldly state to these Cowardly excuses for"doctors"that you will reap what you sow,by denying suffering people the medicines they need to ease their suffering(Proverbs 3:27).
> Be Well,Festuschemist here...i agree (except for bringing a religious tone into this), suggestions/opinions should be taken in consideration with your mental healthcare practitioner. remenber, it is *your* life and you do have control in terms of what therapy/meds are best tailored for you. hopefully, your doctor will steer you in the right direction as you become better acquainted with the meds you are taking.....all the best, chemist
