> Judy1,
I can very much relate to your dilemna, although my drug of choice is phentermine (appetite suppressant). I am being treated for double depression and I swear phentermine makes a difference. (I'm also on prozac and buspar.) I told my pdoc about using phentermine when I first began therapy although I wasn't using it at the time because my supplier had retired. Now I am using it again, but can't tell because he thinks I have an addiction problem. In my case I feel I know more than my pdoc about my state of mind and if this is what it takes to feel better, so be it. I just need to be aware of any signs of serotonin syndrome.
BTW, what insurance do you carry? I'm having to pay $130.00 out of pocket every week for therapy.Marie
