Tamara:
If you're a broken record, I must be the dumpster behind the record factory!!!
I know exactly how you feel, so tired of trying things...hopeful each time, frustrated by side effects...waiting for a therapeutic effect, being patient, so patient, then realizing it's not working, or the S/E's are not abating, and "OK Doc, what next?". Research, research and bug everyone at Babble AGAIN! Aaagh!!!!
Don't apologise...it seems to be the way of things with mental health issues.I think you probably know yourself well enough to decide when you've given the Anafranil a long enough chance.
I don't have any experience with Provigil, but all the research on Nortryptiline I've done, makes that drug seem like a good bet. I've been considering it myself, but I found it uses a liver enzyme that doesn't work well for me.I did take DMAE, a few years ago, before my GAD exploded, and found it did give me mental clarity and focus. I don't take it now, simply because I'm always experimenting with drugs (or tryptophan right now), that it will just confuse the situation. Also, I'm afraid it may exascerbate my anxiety.
Good luck with your ongoing search for the Holy Grail!!!
Jas
