Hi - yes the patch seems very tricky to find out what works - I still haven't. I am on day 12? Started with 1/2 patch 24 hr's. Not so bad, a bit more anxiety, more difficulty sleeping. Then I put on the whole patch 6mg and had a very energetic, and happy? day accomplishing a lot here on the farm - I did not interact socially, just stayed at home. That night could not sleep and was going nuts with anxiety, so I ripped off the patch at 2 or 3 in the morning. 2 hr's sleep that night and a very depressed next day. I have upped my Klonapin to .5mg per day, and yesterday I did 2/3 of a 6mg and took off 2 hrs. before bedtime - I slept pretty normally. Yes I posted once before I didn't see how one could keep a constant level and get to a therapeudic dose by taking off - seem's like the answer to that is still not clear. I am not sure what approach I will take today? maybe the whole thing and take off before bed? SP has been my major problem my whole life as far back as I can remember, and the depression has crept in the last 20+ years and progressively gotten worse. Richard
