Scott,
Once again, I am so grateful to you for giving me so much of your time and thoughtfulness to me. I am truly desperate and not getting the help I need from mental health services.I think because we have had so many messages to and fro, there are some details you forget:
1. I was on nardil for 22 years and it then entirely stopped working. So there is no guarantee that it would work again.
Parnate has worked much better for me than Nardil, and unfortunately I am unable to come off it - I did describe the difficulty I have in my previous post...
so to remind you, I am still taking parnate because I cannot come off it.Re. Lamotrigine, I am on 125 mg, having reduced from 200 mg. I never noticed much difference when increasing from 100-200 mg, and it did work for 4 months at 200 mg,
but then stopped working and the memory loss and inability to communicate is so severe and totally caused by lamotrigine, as I did not have it that badly before. It would take a while to increase to 300 mg at 25 mg every 2 weeks and hesitate to increase it at this point - just because it worked for you - You did not have the horrible side effects that I got.I truly dont want to negate everything you suggest, although it may sound like it. I think it may be hard for you to get my whole picture as you have other things to do besides re-reading my posts - eg I took nardil for probably longer than you have- so I did become familiar with how to increase, and was on a dose of 45 mg for all that time.
