I am pretty much convinced that during the 5 months off from work with pdoc throwing more and more meds at me, I am worse than I began. I want to get off at least the duplicate meds (ie. Depakote/Lamictal) and (Zoloft/Wellbutrin). Anytime I mention it to pdoc he says "We have to get you well first." I'm guessing he "thought I was well" when he sent me back to work.

When I saw my GP last week for an unrelated situation, he took a look at my meds, asked some questions and said he would recommend Zoloft and Lamictal! EXACTLY!! So, I'm going back to him and see if he is able to wean me off, or if he knows of a facility to wean off with medical attention on site. I'm really scared about hearing all the horror stories about going off meds and equally mad I was put on all this stuff without any explanations at all.

Has anyone gone through this? Ideas please?

Thanks so much!!
