Hopefully my doctor will FINALLY listen to me and raise my dosage of desipramine. I have been deteriorating over these last two months.i'll be reading more next week maybe. i'm taking the bar exam this week so its just stuff i read while being distracted from my final cramming. i think i can sympathise though, trying to study the last month was terrible (only thing my doctor let me change was going from .25 clonazapan to .5 3x week, which i tried a few times and still nothing). i loaded up on nicotine lozenges today, as it helps maintain my focus on a task (although, not selecting a task, so doesn't help outside of soemthing like a test) and nicotine makes me super nauseated and feels like my throat is swollen shut. a tca would be really great. anyway i just wanted to post what i had gotten through so i could get it off my mind. its not organized yet and i have no idea what it means, just some inconsistancies i noticed.
> Oh, while you are here, what do you think of the idea that 5-HT2a antagonism might lead to weight gain?
>i don't think i've read anything that ties 2a to weight/appetite, other than a lot of antagonists are ligands for both 2a and 2c, and 2c seems to be connected to weight.
