> OK. Now I'm almost done with my med reductions. Bearing in mind I'm keep 100mg quetiapine + 'some' clonazepam, I've dropped dramatically.

> This week:
> 10mg isocarboxazid (ditching on Sunday)
> 150mg bupropion (last dose on Wednesday)
> 50mg amitriptyline (ditching on Sunday)
> 1.5mg clonazepam (down to 1mg on Sunday)
> 100mg quetiapine (keeping)
> Diphenhydramine (just started for sleep)
> Keeping all supplements + added AnthroPlex, a strong adaptogenic.
>
> Next Monday will be 11days before I see my pdoc to begin phenelzine. I think that's a long enough washout of the contraindicated meds
>
> A few things have happened. My appetite is almost completely gone so small regular snacks throughout the day. Also lost almost a stone in weight since I began reducing. Almost no depression at all. YET! Social & general anxiety sky high. I expected that.
