Hi Ace. I'm 5f.
I've been w/o an AD for nearly a year and am in a full blown major depression ... seems like months. Just lie in bed. Feel like am literally dying. All abandon as think I seem attn, but this is so real. Diagnoses PTSD, borderline, atypical.(?) Long time back bit of help from SSRIs tho black holes lost cognitive awareness life value and unowhat occurred, tricyclics just nothing really, and I guess most effective was Effexor-XR, which have been on prob' 5x, each time reacting a little differently. No to its counterpart. Recently PCP upset at pdoc not agreeable to any AD for me, gave me Wellbutrin-XL and the nervousness was atrocious. Anxiety is a very major issue for me. All I'm on is a benzo, tho' may be shuffling in a state hospital if not for Valium when suffered an insult to my nervous system in 2005 after an overwhelming life event. So, alone here, literally wasting away. See all this re: Nardil. Pharmacist tonight said 'in all yrs as pharmacist, ur only second I've ever written this for. Inquired my med trials. When asked if I'd ever been tried on a combo therapy, seemed shocked when I said 'no'. I'ver seen a lot of pp here on them. I've heard of diff' ones. He said Wellbrutin-XL and Effexor-XR was a popular one.(?) I told him I'd heard fo Remeron and the prior. I am not psychotic. I am pretty highly cognitive. My body just seems to be giving up. I have a lot of love lost in the past five years; like 10pp. People believed loved me. Found diff'. Anyway, I want to see what yo say next here as the Nardil scrip is available to me Mon or Tue. I have been veryr reluctant re: it because, like I said, I am considered highly functioning. Althouh, no one has seen me lie here for these weeks on end now. Pdoc doesn't see it and I'm not sure he'd even believe it. I have always made sure I look as best as possible when walk out front door and take on the mindset I've driven a car and handled life for many yrs and cruise along as if nothing is wrong once out the door. When locked behind, I collapse again into bed. I cannot even awake now w/o Provigil. I am on SSD and had to get a food box Fri. My only support is a man w/ an illicit drug prob'; no I do not participate. I am very very careful not to abuse. But it's getting very hard. A terrible panic attack last eve; worse than ever experienced. Wonder try Nardil or push for a combo. Wonder maybe the other one, the other MAOI I see some may have mentioned as seeming to not create more anxiety, as this is a real important thing for me. Oh. Parnate. Yes. That's the one I'thinking of here. I will follow as you said you'd try get back here. Sometimes I can't open pute and read emails as the person above is here at night when I am scared to be alone. On way now.
tks 5f
