I totally agree with this. Years ago I was started on a full dose of Paxil, when it turned out I could function just fine on 5mg or less and lived for years on much less than 2mg of the liquid while tapering off. (I even had to water down the liquid!!)

I am now exceedingly sensitive to medication side effects, but it also doesn't take much to treat me if I could find something I tolerate.

bleauberry, I'm astounded you have found a pdoc that will treat people at those low levels. I get treated like a crazy hypochondriac by both regular and pdocs when I try to explain my sensitivity to drugs and the low doses I want to try. I am always asking if things come in liquid form so I can lower the dose. You must have a really good doc!!!!!!
