> How did you respond to clomipramine and venlafaxine?
Clomipramine had a good antidepressant effect for about two months, then I got intense anxiety and went back to paroxetine. Venlafaxine worked well in the first months, then it lost effect. I had to use clonazepam for my sleep, venlafaxine was activating.
I also tried venlafaxine + buspirone, but that worsened my sleep problems and it had no sign of effect the time I tried it.> Did you find Prozac helpful at all? 60mg?
Same as the others, the effect was OK some time, and then it stopped working. All these three meds also worked against OCD.
I think I tried 60 or 80 mg, but I have to check my notes to see if I find more details, so this post is with certain reservations. (I have to go for the bus now).
My psychiatrist said today that I could try to add pramipexole to the mix, but I still would appreciate any advice from you and others on this board concerning medication, because I must have a plan B if this doesn't work
