Just before Christmas, my cocktail consisted of zoloft, lithium, clonazepam, remeron and zyprexa prn.
I had a brief trial with seroquel (4 days) with negative results.
Right after Christmas, I replaced zoloft for lexapro. I noticed a slight improvement as far as agitation, but my depression was still slightly remarkable.
I often wondered why my seroquel trial, short as it was, left me feeling more anxious/irritable?
So, thinking zoloft might have reacted with the seroquel and now being somewhat stable on lexapro, I'd give it another shot.
Today is day 10 with seroquel 100mg and lexapro 10mg. I have not felt this well in many years!!
My mood is grounded, I feel pleasure, optimistic, patient.....without apathy. My sex drive remains unchanged at the moment but I (and my wife) :) will work with that.
I 'm extremely overjoyed with my current state and am looking forward to many great days.
My current cocktail is now seroquel 100mg and lexapro 10mg nothing more! At work, I can focus on tasks at hand quite clearly with a long lost sense of confidence.
Just thought I'd share my positive and while short, present state of remission.
Thanks to all for your continued support.
Regards, Rick
