> Seems like your quite like me. Extremely powerful reactions to drugs. However this does not happen me on the benzo class of drugs. I use 2-3 days of clonazepam and then keep a 7 days break, just to take a break from the symptoms im having everyday. But my dosage of clonazepam on those 2-3 days is about 2-3mg! But antidepressants make me generally feel really woozy and very anxious, well atleast the ones ive tried (cipramil,buspar, some antipsychotics (seroquel,levozin). Also tried tolvon which is similar to remeron im taking now. The remeron for 7.5mg low dose worked miracles for me no panic attacks at all, started working since pill 1. I dont know why, neither does my psych doc.

> So the only drugs im taking now are stablon 2-3pills of 12.5mg per day, and remeron 7.5mg per day. And those clonazepams still after a 7 days clean off period. I would need them everyday, but im sure if i do ill get so freaking addicted that i cant get off.

> However i think im trying to give this stablon a go. Im just so sceptical of any pill working for me. I mean i fight hard to get the pills, but when i have to try and start it i just feel like i cant / dont want to. So afraid that i will feel even worse, and/or get really addicted to benzos because of that.

> kavaman, hey - yeah the Klonapin, it's easy to become addicted. I'm getting off because I believe it added to my depression - and I have read plenty of info that supports that. How long have you been doing the 2 or 3 days on and 7 off? I have had the Stablon for maybe 2 years, and am finally taking it. Still just one pill a day, and will be doing that til I get some more - I only have 22. I want to believe that it will work - I will just take it really slow and see what happens. I was going to wait for Emsam, but decided to give the Tianeptine a try. Richard
