Well I have been on about 17 different medications for depression over the past 5 years. Currently im taking 2mg (1mg x 2) daily, of Clonazepam. Been on that a few months to help with my anxiety spikes. None of the other anti-depressents, even at high levels, such as Effexxor, Paxil, and so on every helped curb the depressive or hostile mood swings. Im crossing my fingers Lithium helps, and I will take warning that they might throw another med in to help with everything once a good dosage is reached. Once again thanks for the helpful and calming advice and information. It makes me feel much better about my situation!
