> I have been taking 60mg of propranolol for tremors and anxiety caused by my medications (1800mg Trileptal, 250mg Lamictal, 400mg Wellbutrin SR)....and I am already in a horrible depressive episode...
>Just a thought, but I would not personally continue taking meds that don't work, especially if they are causing side effects that require yet another med. If I'm going to stack another med onto my cocktail to control side effects of the other meds, well, my other meds better sure as heck be keeping me out of "horrible depressive episodes". Ya know? Maybe the focus should be on getting rid of the meds that aren't working rather than covering up side effects of them?
Like I said, just a thought. I would not for a second allow myself to stay where you are at this time. If I'm wicked depressed on whatever meds, I'm sorry, but I'm cross tapering onto to new ones, simple as that.
