Thanks, Ravenstorm.
I think it is important for people to realize that mifepristone is a potent blocker of cortisol receptors. The acute consequence of this is that levels of cortisol skyrocket as the body attempts to maintain homeostasis by secreting excessive amounts from the adrenals. I guess the idea is to schock the HPA axis into establishing a new equilibrium. I will be excited to be able to report to others my experience with mifepristone - good or bad.
> Have you tried topomax yet?
No, but enough people report an antidepressant effect from it such that I must consider it seriously.
This is what I'm currently taking:
Parnate 80mg
nortripyline 100mg
Lamictal 150mg
Keppra 1000mg
Abilify 10mgSo, what's happening with you?
