Yes everything you said makes sense. I see a lot of potheads and the disturbing thing is, some of them are very crazy but can't recognize it. Unfortunately, I am on that wavelength and recognize the neurosis, which is part of what brings me down. (Trying to avoid that mindset and protect my personal space)
Not sure if I posted this before, but I take Lorazepam (Ativan) PRN and used to take Klonopin but needed something with a shorter half-life because it used to affect my short-term memory. I'd see a movie on it and couldn't remember a thing.
Is Focalin available on the prescription market in the U.S.? Is it FDA-approved or just an experimental thing?
I've been on Lamictal, Depakote (small of each), and Zoloft. The Zoloft tapering has been very emotionally and physically draining, and the Lorazepam only increases my apathy of my depressed state.
I should start Nardil tomorrow, and I'll try to get a prescription for Ritalin. I really appreciate your advice, as this is probably the only resource available to me where I can get such unbiased information.
Last q-- Do you know offhand if coke reacts with MAOIs? I definitely don't want to do it anymore once I start, but the situation could arise at a party and I just want to make sure I don't go into a coma or something. I am definitely not addicted but if you have been in an environment when coke is done, you know sometimes it can just show up without notice. Once again, I appreciate everyone's honest answers and thank you for not bashing me as I'm actually a pretty sensitive person. Well, I just want to be happy, like everyone else on here.
Thanks for reading.
Take care,
"Bob"
