Hi yall, I've been here b4 but I forgot my user ID so I had to start over... Anyways I gotta question...
I no longer see a pdoc, started getting my meds through a PA at the family practice office in town... Shes great, I really like her... Anyways I am currently supposed to be taking 100 mg of Zoloft, 900 mg of Lithium, and 150 mg of Trazodone... I say supposed to because on the Zoloft I only take 50 mg BECAUSE I am not ready to redo the 100 mg side effects... (I stopped taking them for a while) The doctor took me off of Seroquel 100 mg because I had gained a lot of weight and she thinks that may be why... That's how I ended up with Trazodone, lastnight was my first night taking it and I fell asleep about 10:00pm and woke up at 1:00am really suicidal like... I mean all I could think about is the bad things in life, I hated the world... (I lost my dad on March 7th 2005) That had also been on my mind when I woke up... Finally at about 3:00am I was finally able to fall asleep again... Now my question is... Should I be taking the full 100 mg of Zoloft to not have the suicidal side effects? Or is it just something I will overcome? Can I continue to take only 50 mg? (The doctor doesnt know I only take 50) Is 150 mg of Trazodone a lot?

Thanks for listening...
