Dear Cloud9,
I had a most delightful time out on the town while on a business trip to Boston back in May
(well actually they were a few delightful times on that trip). Anyway, I definitely partied away
(haven't partied in years, BTW). It was great while it lasted, but I could not take any Klonopin for 2 nights (for fear of mixing too much booze with a benzo) which of course caused withdrawl symptoms (awful).The worst part of really drinking up a storm was not the hangover, but a bad depression set in which lasted for 1 week.
Since then, I decided that my "partying" days are over and I shall stick to 2 to 3 glasses of wine
at any one given social function. At this degree of moderation, I can take my Klonopin and do not become depressed nor does it interfere with my Effexor one bit.Even if you were not on AD's I would advise moderation. Happy Holidays, :) AnneL
