Absoloutely not a problem!!!!!

> I am seeing a psychiatrist but he doesnt advise me very much. Just says that i can swap meds 'if you want to'.A lot of psychiatrists are indeed like this. They are very much overwhelmed, but that is no excuse. Just remember you can see a caring GP too - just want you to feel cared for.

> I am just praying that the clomipramine will kick in again. I had been on a tiny dose (10mg) for 6 months before stopping and had been fine but my body/mind now seems incapable of working without ad's.Ok I'm sure it will but how about we speed up the response and also get a more robust antidepressant reaction. Along with Clom. try the flowing
1. Xanax- 0.5-2mg
2. Lithium - 1 gram, titrate slowly
3. Remeron...great med! 15mg
4. Seroquel - 25-200mg
5. Risperidone - 0.5-2mg
6. Zyprexa...2.5mg-5mgAll of these have great potential and I could list 20 more!

> Thankyou again for replying to me.Don't thank me! Just get better...but I seriously reccomend augmentation...
