No
I took 2mg of Clonazepam and it made it even worse, i got even more depressed. I was like dammit!
Clonazepam (Klonopin) seems to cause general depression at times, it is not pleasant. I have asked my doctor about Alprazolam (Xanax) he said, we are going to wait and you are not your own doctor. I said ok, thats fine.
Procrastinator Prozac is taking its sweet little time to take effect, no noticable effect after 7 days. It takes up to 6 weeks to take effect, LONG!
I take Zyprexa 2.5mg, hardly no notice anydiffrence at all. I did with 6 mg on Symbyax. But i feel better taking them seperate.
Klonopin alot of times causes agitation, becuase i feel "sluggish depressed" there must be some site in the brain it works on to do this. I get agitated in reaction and irrtible.
THanks for posting
Matt

I don't know if you can get this supplement where you are, but folic acid can prevent some of the depression from anticonvulsants. It can also aid in prozac's function.
I would add 1mg of folic acid, it's cheap, at least here in canada.

Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to redirect follow-ups regarding supplement to Psycho-Babble Alternative. Here's a link:
