well, thank you guys for the kind words. i'll just continue to keep trying to find something that works.
im not sure if im even supposed to mention this on babble, but i ended up having to order the Naltrexone and Selegiline that im currently taking from an overseas site. i used the site a few years ago and had good results, and read other people said they had good results, so i used this site again. it was a last resort after my pdoc wouldnt even prescribe Emsam in the lowest dose. and i didnt even bother asking for Naltrexone. i just had gotten to the point where i wasnt going to wait for a pdoc to come around to deciding to try something new.
but since ive been taking the Selegiline and Naltrexone, i havent noticed any effect on mood (which isnt abnormal, thats been my experience with many meds ive tried) but my main concern is that the meds i received might have been handled improperly, such as being store in a hot wearhouse or something, causing them to become innefective. but i have noticed one thing, ive had vivid dreams every night since i started taking them, a.d i read many experiences with Naltrexone where they described vivid dreams as a side effect. so maybe thats a sign that at least the Naltrexone is in good condition.
but... i think my next idea is to take a med that focuses on Norepinephrine and continue taking it for some time even if it makes me feel horrible like the ones i mentioned, in hopes the bad effects will eventually turn to good. thats basically how my experience with Dopamine meds like Adderall and Mirapex went. Except it was opposite, they started out GRRREAT! but then after about 6 weeks the effects suddenly reverse and they just left me much worse off.... i dont know if this idea i have sounds all that great, but i just dont know what else to do. hopefully when i see the actual psychiatrist on 2/10, he will have an idea. i used to see him in the past, and this is my first appointment with him in 5 years. and i remember him being much better than the pdoc ive been seeing lately.
