Thanks Chris K, Sherry, Noa, April A, bob, Michael,
Janet, CarolAnn, and bob again. I owe all of you.I'm still here. I made a pact w/myself to see my
counselor and shrink on Monday (tomorrow). Sorry,
Noa & bob, but I can't dispose of my firearms.
I have a nice collection, mostly 'preban' handguns
and military rifles & carbines. No, bob, no weapons
of mass destuction, but how about a nice full-auto
rifle with a grenade launcher attached?This episode had a definite trigger (no pun intended).
The more I think about that, the more despondent I become.
I guess my solution has been to sleep 16 to 20 hrs a day,
but I've been having dreams about the situation.I haven't been out of the house in 3 days. Luckily,
I had stocked up on the essentials: milk, raisen
bran, chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate peanut
butter ice cream.To answer the question if I had tapered off of Serzone,
yes, I had, and I was taking 300mg Effexor, 600mg
Lithium, and 4mg Klonopin. Effexor sux. I had told
the doc of the many unpleasant side effects. He said
to try to get thru another week. I did not. I did
a 3 day Effexor taper, adding Serzone. So now I'm
taking a minimum dose of Serzone, 300mg/day instead
of the Effexor. Serzone sux also. Will see what the
doc pulls out of his hat next.Anyway, thanks to everyone. Take care. I'll be around
to at least tomorrow, then we'll go from there.
