>Yeah, I'm 4 months removed from a cold turkey, and just barely re-introduced the xanax, did some ect, tried neurontin, some of the antipsychotics, even clozaril/clozapine.
Don't know why i can take some trileptal in the morn, and i'm social, looking for jobs and things to do etc, then get depressed. Then at night, as i am trying to play a game, and conversations are running rampant, i take a small dose of trileptal, and it really seemed to slow down and allow me to concentrate, although i wake up with the same conversations, debates, arguments, suicidal talk etc.
I'm really at a wits end and loss here as what to do. So are my docs, as I badger mine a few times a day lolRegards,
Brian
