Echoing others - pdoc discussion is a good thing. The more info shared the more accurate they can be.

Tricky thing with the medications is that there's no empirical measurement to say "Ah HA! Increase x mg and we'll be in the zone."

Don't dismiss how you're feeling or think you have to try to "measure" against any of the other members' feelings here. It's all relative and there's no standard measure. If you feel crappy - we all "get it" and sympathize. Crappy is crappy.

I've gone through the med switcheroos too. Started with Paxil and it worked for me for a while. Didn't like some of the side-effects and eventually even with increased dosage it hit a plateau and it took several other experiments to find something acceptable.

You are doing some healthy things to help yourself. Just hope you're not adding to your stresses trying to balance all of it.

Hugs.
Thanks for this!
