> Oh, about Serzone-I found that 25mgs at bedtime (NOT during the day, thank you please!), worked quite well-maybe if you feel too wired from the Celexa and the Lithium combo. perhaps 300mg lithium+ 25mg Serzone (instead of the Celexa) at bedtime with Neurontin and diazepam PRN would do?

Thanks for your replies here and the Li thread, you are a friend indeed. I am in the process of try to reach the ol' pdoc, but it's the weekend, and getting a time to talk before monday is unlikely.
I did cut my Celexa dose in half today, and actually managed to sit still, and feel a little sleepy...Though that may be related to getting no quality sleep, night after night. And I only drank half of my precious one cup of coffee before work as well. that makes me sad, because I love that bit of caffeine. It *usually* makes me feel like life is worth living. But when I wake up with my nerves fried and body pulsing, coffee would probably push me over the edge.How are you are managing with the change in light and seasons? I have noticed that, constrary to what I would guess, I want to sleep less not more. When it was so bright and sunny all summer, I couldn't get up and be at work by 9:30am, so I had to quit my job. These past few weeks it's been very easy to get up so I resumed my satuday job today. I guess the Li got me out of a rut, because I got a call thursday to work, and I felt good enough to say yes. How could it work so damn fast...And why isn't it knocking me out, like it's known to do?
Anyway, thanks,
C
