Many people find Geodon helpful, it seems. I gave it a good try. It did something weird with my sleep, unfortunately. I was dead tired all day and wide awake at night. That was unusual for me and presented a whole new problem. *sigh* __________________ |

Okay. So. It seems the small dose of perphenazine has enabled me to have a less anxious day. A HUGE success.

It was a miracle when I went in patient after my last child was born and k went of my bipolar meds and had post pardum depression. But I had an old school doc I’d been seeing (21 years until she retired 2 years ago) and she just left me on it. It saved my life until last April I developed TD. Weaning off of it was so awful. Antipsychotics have their place and some people do need them forever but a TD assessment should have been done to see if my slowly progressing muscle movements were problematic. So I guess I’m just saying pay attention to your body. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk __________________ "I carried a watermelon?" President of the no F's given society. |

Stop cogentin, she will not refill it. Reduce Pristiq while increasing Zoloft. In a week stop the Pristiq entirely. Next month "we" will discuss stopping the Wellbutrin. No more antipsychotics. Keep taking Lamictal. Keep taking Klonopin. That's all I can remember.

Yep! I swear that the woman is crazy. I'm stuck with her for now because there are no other options with my health plan. Supposedly a new pdoc will be starting at the clinic soon. *Fingers crossed* __________________ |

I am so sorry. Is there anyway your PCP can prescribe meds until there's a better pdoc.

Thank you Mm. I don't have a PCP. I do have a GP, but she won't prescribe psych meds unless it's truly an emergency. __________________ |

Yes, I've been on all the SSRI's at some time or another. Zoloft was helpful for me, so was Celexa. When I was younger the SSRI's were truly a miracle. My hope is that they'll still work for me. __________________ |

So I'm supposed to take 50mg of Zoloft every night for a week, then go up to 100mg. So far I haven't noticed much except that I feel queasy all day. I hope it subsides soon.

No more Pristiq (AD), no more AP. Soon no more Wellbutrin. I took the first 100mg. of Zoloft last night. I don't feel any different (still extremely anxious), but I know I do have to give the Zoloft a few days to kick in - if it does.

Second or third day of taking Zoloft. It may be helping with depression a bit, but not doing a thing for the anxiety.
