Hi Nole,

I do agree w/ conundrum that your meds are not working. I am a med inexperienced babbler. However, can you get another opinion from another psychiatrist? Are you being treated by one? I don't know if the lamictal (is that a high dose) is addressing your anxiety, which seems high. And for me, pristiq was not effective at 50mg. When increased to 100mg I had too many side effects. My next step is to try remeron. Supposedly it works synergistically with pristiq to reduce stress and increase AD effect. We'll see....

Hopefully, others will weigh in with their experience.

You're not alone. No cutting, but have left carts of groceries before. I've also hidden in bed, even from my best friends. Sometimes therapy can be a great adjunct....

Good luck to you, and welcome. Are you new here?
