The crisis line is 988 or you can text hi to 741741.


Just do that before you are tempted to take so much medication.

I think you also need to consider if having a pdoc you are seeing face to face would be a good idea. I would really question my pdoc if she took me off 2 meds at once without a really slow taper. I've been on and on a LOT of meds and she has never done that to me.

Please, reach out.

I agree with this.

Like I've said, I can't even get my pdoc to take me off one med (except for propranolol, which we put me back on, and gabbies, which I said I wanted to stay on) much less two at once! That's not right. Especially since you're obviously really struggling with it. I'm tapering my own *** off Lamictal right now and am doing it faster than I know my pdoc would take me off it! He'd probably take me off 50mg every six weeks.
