Hello Greg, thanks for your concern. I did meet with my dr. but she doesn't want to prescribe anything new for a couple of weeks. I was taking only 5mg of Fluoxetine and .5mg Ativan twice daily. She wants me to increase the Fluoxetine to 10mg and remain on the Ativan for a couple more weeks. We did discuss Anafranil, Celexa, Provigil, and Wellbutrin as some options. I plan to give this combo. another week. She seems to be leaning towards Provigil. She spoke highly of Wellbutrin, but she was concerned that it might increase my anxiety. I think she felt more comfortable with the Wellbutrin to help with my dopamine over the Mirapex or Topomax. I just know that I need something to lift my mood and eliminate this spacey feeling (derealization). I know that the Lord will deliver me!
God Bless
