Hi Scott,
I think your answer jibs w/ my pdoc's. Most stressors seem to be of a psychological nature, though dysregulation is a big affect. He didn't seem too keen on adding an AP. I feel he is still considering ways to go.
I am beginning to recover today--and functioned with additional xanax ir. The fright is diminishing. I will discuss an AP on a PRN basis on Friday.
And I think we going to pace therapy a bit differently.
I guess we'll have to see--I have just never faced such a rapid disintegration before. I feel I may need another med in my toolbox beside emergency xanax. Maybe.
Current regime:
pristiq 50
strattera 80
xanax er 2-3
Dexedrine spansules 45-60Thanks, Scott for your concern and clear-sightedness,
hugs,

> I wish there were a "clean" answer. I'm sure you are working very hard in psychotherapy. I have to think that there is an answer for you that does not require an AP. However, you are in a bad place right now, and if you are below the threshold of functionality, you may opt to go with an AP temporarily. You may want to try it as a PRN first if you are uncomfortable using it chronically. I guess it depends upon the balance between psychosocial stress and biogenic dysregulation that you are being subject to. What I mean by that is if most of your discomfort revolves around the ebb and flow of external or psychological stressors, PRN might be the way to go. If your perceived depression and anxiety are constant and do not vary in accordance to stressos, you might be looking at a need to treat your condition more steadily.
