Thanks for your response...
With the Remeron, I was sleeping fine before the change and had weight under control. I think her plan is to switch me over to Trazadone.
I am confused about the Cymbalta change as well. I got the impression she just doesn't like Cymbalta and also blames it for weight gain. The hospital psychiatrist prescribed it after talking with my family since my mom and sister both take it for depression associated with pain. (genetics?)
I took very little Klonopin, maybe 10 pills in 3 months, except when hospitalized where they made me take it daily. My anxiety increased with the increase in Wellbutrin.
I feel like a total mess. I have periods of extreme panic and restlessness alternating with crying and miserable hopelessness. I think this is so hard because I felt that what I was on was working fine. I also think that all three changes at once was too rough on me - guess I am just frustrated with this.

I wish I was more knowledgable about these meds and felt able to stand up for myself with these issues.
