Dear Scott.
So nice to see you are back. I really hope that you not feeling to badly for the moment.
Have you make an trial on citalopram yet?
I am a bit depressed for the moment. You know it is spring now in my country, and my depression always get worser in these period of time.
I have replaced the mirtazapin, with nefazodene because of the side effect. Nefazedon was great in the beginning, but pooped out after a week or two. I know you also have this problem, with severel meds.
Advantages for me with mirtazapin:
Very good for sleep.
Good for sexual side effect from venlafaxin. It also raise the libido as well.Advantages nefazodone:
No weigt gain
Better for small amount of social phobia, that I have from the former mix.Disadvantages:
Remeron cause weight gain.
The main reason for stop it was reccurent infections. I had approximately 4 infections per year. Sore throat, Sinut etc despit normal bloodcells. Cortisol level up?? Hypotesis. I don´t think it is the venafaxin, because i had it as a mono terapi for one year without this pattern
Photophobia? And sun sensetiveNefazodone cause cognetive disturbance. Especially memory disturbance. Not so good for sleeping as Remeron. I have to take propiomazin as an add on to nefazodone. Not so good for sexual side effect as Remeron. Especially desire.
Any thoughts of replacing Serzone with?
It´s a crual joke with this poop out. I definitely think I`m a rapid metabolizer, because I tolerated high dosage.My current mix:
T. Litium
T. Lamictal 100 mg
T. Effexor 300 mg
T. Serzone 400 mgI really hope you stay well.
Sincerely
Petters
