> I'm just confused as all heck. I was on 600mg trileptal, which had lifted my depression and stabilized my mood greatly, and 10mgs of diazapam that i was withdrawing from.
> The anxiety got to be too much for me. Doc said had nothing to do w/ withdrawals, but GAD and OCD, as my previous doc had said (and i might agree).
>
> So doubled my diazepam to 20, and put me on 20 of paxil, took away the trileptal, and i feel like all hell. Depression is back, and derealization is full effect, and anxiety is worse, and having emotional breakdowns that i wasn't having on Trileptal, and was having before trileptal.

> Why take away trileptal when it had lifted my depression? Why add an SSRI when i don't respond to them?

> My goal is/was to get off of meds. But now she wants to add seroquel for sleep.
>
> She is being strict with me because i told her that i'm bad at taking meds, stopping, starting, and switching all the time. So i get that. But now she refuses to budge or alter, especially if it comes from me, because she just sees it as obsessions.
>
> I still do have logic and can make correlations that trileptal, depression fine, no breakdowns, now gone, they're back.
>
> What would you do?


Dump her and find a new Pdoc.
