Hi there? How goes it? I am doing pretty well, EXCEPT having some bad anxiety. I need your advice (what else is new huh? LOL!) My current meds are 100 mgs. Lamictal, 30 Remeron, and 37.5 Zoloft. The Zoloft usually works for my anxiety/OCD pretty well. However lately it really isn't keeping the anxiety at bay, an if I raise it any higher I get severe body aches and headaches. Besides, the weight gain has gotten REALLY old. I need something else for the anxiety, however I don't know WHAT. Here are my med experiences, thought you might be able to make a suggestion for me. Prozac-severe agitation, Paxil - good but weight gain (could I keep this weight off by watching what I eat), Luvox- agitation, Celexa - yuck, Seroquel - sedating, Risperdal - okay, not great anxiety relief though. I have been on different benzos temporarily, however never for the long term. Do they work better after the body has adjusted to the sleepiness/zombie feeling? Any suggestions would be so great!
