"I don't know your situation after the hospital with the Klonopin -- but with the small dose you're on, its doubtful you've made any permanent changes to your basic CNS functions."
Actually never went to hospital, had to reintroduce klono. I was wandering around stating my name, address, what HS i went to, just to convince myself that i was real. Complete derealization/depersonalization. Couldn't sleep literally ONE minute. Could not escape my head, my thoughts, LITERALLY, like i was hypnotized.
Took xanax, all went away. next day at work was my best i had ever had at that job. But went back on klono, because that was what i had taken for over one year (although i hated it), and planned a taper. The klono immediately induced depression.
"If you're generally more depressed than anxious, Wellbutrin will probably work fine for you"
Generally, im extremeley more anxious than depressed. I'm usually only depressed becauase of the anxiety.
Not now. This is full blown depression, and anxiety is low. I do feel it's benzo induced. Now on valium, doesn't help, im just left tired w/ no motivation.This has happened before. Months of anxiety to months of depression (hhhmmm possible BPII). Probably anxiety 90 percent to depressions 10.

"If you have OCD and you're far more anxious than depressed, something other than Wellbutrin should probably be used for depression."Tried em all, all too stimulating, make me feel more crazy. Nothing has worked.
Lamictal once pulled me out of a 3 year depression, only to wear off (i have access to here if i want).Remember my goal is to get off of meds. I figured it out, and it'll take me til April 1 to wean off of valium. I'm not sure if i can deal w/ this depression in the mean time.

"Sorry to hear Lilly can't get Cymbalta over into Shenzhen. Must be pricing."Yes, odd, seeing that Lilly has a plant in Hong Kong. It was tough for them to get Wellbutrin, imported from GSK from thailand.
I could give Wellbutrin a couple weeks go. I'm usually very sensitive on how they are working, and could abandon it if i feel more anxious/obsessive/ruminating.
Who knows, it could work. All the ones they thought would, haven't. Could try the reverse pharmacology.
Or i could go to lamictal for balance.
Or i could just ride the taper out alone.Regards,
Brian
