In reply to changing and upping meds, is this alright?, posted by Jeroen on October 7, 2013, at 12:27:51
...maybe Surmontil (trimipramine) ? Its sedating and not very "activating." I don't know if they have it in your country. Its a TCA, but I don't think it has as many bad side effects as the older TCA drugs. May be wrong...

Trimipramine is not too awful. I prefer not to take much because of the dry mouth but otherwise I am fine with it. I take 15mg or so at night.

have you tried fluvoxamine? I thing it is better for comorbid schizophrenia. Paxil is more anticholinergic.

Fluvoxamine is an SSRI.

> before i was psychotic and PaxilHow did that work? Here in Norway Paxil is called "Seroxat". It was the first psychotropic drug I tried. I started with it March 1994. Some weeks later I become manic for the first time in my life. July 1994 I was committed to a mental hospital (for the first time) with a manic psychosis, due to the Seroxat (paroxetine). I have never been manic without abrupt changes and/or high dosages of antidepressants.
