So the anxiety, panic, racing thoughts were just a little too much to bear. For the first time in 6 years I started on meds again, but only Klonopin. right now I'm on 1 mg a day. It has helped immensely.
I did an extensive history with my pdoc and the long and short of it is he thinks that ssri's and tricyclics may have a causative effect of mania for me, and he wants to keep away from them. His top suggestion is Lamictal. I have no idea, no experience , know nothing about this drug. I searched the Dr. bob pages, but wanted to start a new thread for the most up to date info on people's experience/knowledge of the drug.
I'm still not sure I want to take anything other than the klonopin, but I'm keeping my options open.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom
