My doctor won't be happy with me...

Posted by TrishP on September 22, 2005, at 7:05:31

I went back to Effexor after being off of it for two miserable weeks. The withdrawl is gone, but I couldn't take being mean and irritated all the time.

I am taking Wellbutrin, Effexor and I added Klonopin to take the edge off (only .25 2x a day).

My doctor won't be happy with me coming up with my new combo - they don't like people taking Klonopin because they say its addictive. In years past (with another shrink) I took .50mg of Klonopin everyday for 3 years and never took more than 1mg a day. It has never been addictive for me.

So, now I have to tell my doc what I've done - which is working for me.

I don't see the problem in taking a small dose of Klonopin.

They would rather have me on Trileptal - but I hate the way it messes with my hormones.

Any advice?
