Hi guys!
Just some opinions needed. Not that I need one now, but thinking about a back up plan if Zoloft doesn't work. Someone gave some advice on a post about adding an antipsychotic to your ssri if needed. When you take both of these together, how does that work? I've taken them seperately, but never together for anxiety. My pdoc at the time kept trying to raise my dosage of the Seroquel. He got it up to 400mgs daily, which did quiet down my brain, but it never got rid of the anxiety.
Have taken Seroquel before, didn't like it. Made me feel awful. Had all of the awful side effects while on it. Not sure of the names of all the rest. (Zyprexa, Ambilify, Geoden)? I'm sure there are others I don't know.
Are they pretty much all the same or are some milder than others?
Another question. Knowing that everyone is different, I just want an opinion. Do you think mixing an ssri with an antipsych med for extreme GAD would be better, or would you think an maoi would work better.
I know nothing will be as easy, but would like to spare myself as much torture as possible. :-)
Just curious,
Thanks,
Courtney
