Hey man, that would be great. I'm sending referall to new pdoc. and secretary says I can get set up for an appt. as soon as she gets the referall. I have a doctors appt. on the wednesday, she said if I get the referall out that day I may get in as early as december 8th. This guy is apparently more for medications, which right now I feel that I need! and I'm pretty sure my current pdoc. doesn't know enough about maoi's. Won't even up my nardil now to 90 from 75, been there for almost 7 weeks in all, after before upping it to 105 from 75.
Anyway my diagnosis is Social Annxiety disorder, general anxiety disorder, and depression. My social anxiety is what is most severe in my case. I don't do much, and lost contact with all my friends, basically getting more close to family, but really being stuck with no job, very little motivation, and with a lost lisence, I find it harder, depending on everyone. I lost it through a dui, and also wrecked too vehicles that were mine, one was very hard to see go, it was a 98 honda prelude, very fast car. All these things have gave me low self esteem and self confidence, as well as becoming an alcoholic but stopped myself before it was to late and alcoholism kicked in. Lately I try to occupy my time fixing a snowmobile engine, which I'm very interested in, but only have basic skills, and know how.
I have had addiction problems, mainly alcohol, but also which I have been free of for 13 weeks, would have been 18 weeks if I didn't relapse the first 5 weeks in.
My depressin I think routes from, not being able to get out aroud much because of how severe my sa is. I am on nardil because of the success stories i've heard, and it actually being #1 med. for SA.
What I want from the augmentation is anxiety relief, especially socially, I feel that nardil can still do me good, and I plan on sticking with it for 4-6 months, but I feel that from what i've read, an augmentation can speed up the nardil, or at least give you releif from the combo. I did not have plazma levels tested.
My side effects has mostly all disipated, except for the sexual se's wich would be the inability to orgasm for like 3 months. And yes I am a male. not being able to orgasm I think makes me lose desire quicly, but desire is there. but no trouble with erection. I also have the ocassional orthoostatic hypotension. Only when I sleep through the day, and get up and it dosn't last long, but I do have low blood pressure, it ranges from as low as 80/50-110/60-65. This is why I chose ritalin as my first choice, and I also done some research saying it can be very useful with nardil.
I guess that's pretty much it, sorry about the rant, but I wanted to try to cover everything.
If you need anymore info just let me know.
thanks for the help.
hope to hear from you soon
