Hi and thank's a lot for your posts. I was away for the week-end and I did not think about all that, which is good (sometimes I get so obsessed about that kind of situation!). Now I'm back, and my mind is not set yet. But it's good to feel you poeple out there who can understand and empathize. It's much needed and much appreciated.
About the meds, the 'combo' I take seems to help some symptoms like fatigue and intense inner torture, but the anxiety is still very much present. I take benzos but it doesn't seem to be enough. I take 2mg of attivan, 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening. Switching meds is something I hate to do, especially when the depression is (at least partially) released. I take Manerix 300 mg along with Neurontin 1600mg. I sometimes wonder if another type of AD would suit better, but I gotta stop the Manerix first, and that I feel bad about. Last time I lowered the dose, the fatigue and despair came back. So I came back to the initial dose. I wonder though if it could have been some kind of 'withdrawal effect'?
I wish you a nice day/evening/night eveyone.
Doo
