another poster basically told me I was crazy for suggesting that opioids be used before antipsychotics in cases of anxiety.
Well, what do you thnk of the effects vs. side effects of each? :)
Keep in mind that your case is a TYPICAL response to use of opioids in psychiatry. Very few people end up "hooked". Why would you want to abuse something when you feel great sober?
The popular concept of addiction in the US, namely that it is the drugs that get you hooked because they're so amazing, that you get hooked the first time you try them, that once and addict always an addict...it's all such BS. When will people see the emperor has no clothes?
Have you considered using a DA agonist (ropinirole, requip) for the purpose you wanted to use lamictal for?
