Thank you Scott.
I am the person who lives in UK, and reacted well to lamotrigine being added as augmentation to parnate. You were very helpful with your posts and I do appreciate them and your taking the time to write.
The lamotrigine has since stopped working and I am now in a terrible state again and barely functioning with unbearable anxiety and cannot think straight. Still taking the lamotrigine and parnate though neither is working, and lamotrigine has destroyed my memory.
The nhs free mental care is really bad, and offered ECT which I dont want. They asked what I would agree to and I suggested Marplan since I reacted well to both parnate and nardil. Only maois have ever worked for me and Im hoping that marplan can work too, even though it is supposedly weaker than the other two.
Of course, as you say, I have to try it to find out, but am really scared as it is my last hope being offered by the NHS and I cannot afford to go private, and Im not functioning. My state before going on meds was really non functional, and that is where I am again.

i am so terribly sorry about your situation. have you been prescribed sedatives...benzodiazepines, gabapentin, Lyrica?
I don't think lyrica is very popular here in the US for psych indications. gabapentin was, to some extent still is.
I did read that Lyrica was popular in other countries...canada, I think...maybe parts of the EU?
I seem to recall reading that there is a distinct discontinuation syndrome associated with both gabapentin (I would assume higher doses and chronic usage) and also with Lyrica. Here in the US, Lyrica is a Schedule V controlled substance, so it is officially regarded as less (potentially) problematic than ativan, valium, etc.
other than that...a large study in the US found that the combination of Effexor and Remeron had results in "treatment-resistant depression" roughly comparable to an MAOI (I think they used Parnate?). not ideal, but...
all I could really come up with. and...
I know this is probably going to sound extra-obnoxious, but: what do you mean by anxiety? is low mood involved? facial flushing, trembling? ruminations?
I just ask because if you can break down what your anxiety involves, it -might- be easier for a treatment provider to put something together that provides some relief.
I hope this helps. :-)

Hi, Rose.
I'm sorry that you feel stuck right now.
Just a few questions:
1. What is your current dosage of lamotrigine?
3. What was the maximum dosage you went up to and for how long?
2. Do you take the original Lamictal or generic lamotrigine?
3. Are you using the same pharmacy?
4. Has there been a change in the name of the generic manufacturer you were dispensed?
5. Was your memory impaired when lamotrigine was working well?
6. Is your memory worse now than it was before you relapsed?

My state before going on meds was really non functional, and that is where I am again.I dont just feel stuck, I feel suicidal and cannot think clearly. The mental pain is unbearable and it has been going on for too long.
1. I reduced the lamotrigine to 125 mg
2. I went up to 200 mg but there was no difference between 100 and 200 and there were too many side effects.... too much loss of hair, loss of memory and ability to express myself etc..
3.original lamictal, but when it worked for 6 weeks at 125 mg, it was with a generic. When I switched to lamictal, it soon stopped working. When I switched back to the same generic, it wouldnt work either.Yes same pharmacy
It only worked with one particular generic, but no longer does with that generic or with lamictal either.
Yes my memory has been impaired all along.
Maybe my memory is worse now because of the overwhelming anxiety.I dont seem to react in any logical way to anything. I cant see a way out. sorry if this is muddled. Thank you for caring

I havent been given anything . The NHS is overstretched and are in the dark ages - they dont prescribe benzos although I do have a small amount of lorezapam which I got from my gp but I dont want to take it too often and get addicted or run out.
The anxiety feels chemical, like caused by parnate no longer working, and all the suppressed anxiety is no longer suppressed by the drug. I dont know how else to describe it, but it is mental torture
Parnate worked so well for me, if only I could get it to work again... I should be open to trying Effexor and Remeron but I really cant start experimenting again...and they have so many side effects...... Im hoping against hope that Marplan will work....that is probably not an objective way of thinking,. Thank you for responding and for your feedback. I think it is impossible to help me bearing in mind the limitations of the system here in uk. I do appreciate your post. Thank you. I have a friend who was given Lyrica , but she said it didnt help her - and since Im on an maoi, the nhs would not give it to me anyway.

Yes, you are experiencing what is known as "psychic pain". It is terrible and you will do anything for it to end - even auto-euthanasia.

Yes Scott, you are right, I dont know how much more of this I can take. Im also on 2.5mg of olanzapine and I forgot to take it last night, and today the suicidal feelings are even stronger. Can that happen just by missing 1 dose of olanzapine? I phoned the mental health department, and they are denying that such a low dose of olanzapine would have a reaction like that.
I hardly get any support from the mental health team and they are planning for withdrawal from parnate, in order to try marplan, which was my suggestion since the parnate is no longer working, and nardil also stopped working - but they are not planning supervision, and will just give me a schedule, and place me back under my gp.
This is the uk health system which is not fit for purpose.
I dont know what you can say, but I appreciate so much that you care.

There are a couple of drugs that work to reduce suicidal ideation. Olanzapine (Zyprexa) is one of them. Why haven't you tried to go to 5.0 mg/day or 10 mg/day of olanzapine? Lithium, clozapine, and ketamine are others that come to mind.
For me, 300 mg/day of lamotrigine is the minimum effective dosage. What side effects do you experience when you increase the dosage beyond 200 mg/day? How long did you spend at the highest one dosage?
> Can that happen just by missing 1 dose of olanzapine?
It is conceivable, especially if you are barely responding to it. On the other hand, the half-life of olanzapine is 33 hours.

I forgot to mention that an old trick to remedy a relapse of depression during ongoing Nardil treatment is to stop taking it for three months and then restarting it.

my baseline is so bad and non-functioning that I could barely survive 2 weeks without a med, let alone 3 months.
Some people on reddit say they decrease the maoi and then increase it, and that seems to work for them. When I reduced the parnate, it just stopped working altogether.
Why oh why do I not react like the majority of people.... ?maybe i could go on marplan for 3 months and then switch back to parnate ? but there is no guarantee that it would work again...

How long did you spend at the highest one dosage?My highest dosage of lamotrigine was 200mg, but I hated it because of so much loss of hair, that I am now balding, and the loss of memory and ability to communicate are truly scary. Those side effects are still there, even though I have now decreased to 125 mg. I know you are doing well on a higher dose, but I hate this drug. Im also having trouble with my sight, and hearing and tinnitus which started more or less when I started the lamotrigine. Its hard to know if they are connected but the memory loss and general ability to communicate are very scary side effects.>

I also started to lose my hearing and eyesight and got tinnitus at more or less 125mg lamotrigine but cant know for sure whether those things are connected. I know 300 mg works for you, but I dont think you are getting all these side effects and you are getting substantial benefits. For me it has worked on and off and stopped working for no particular reason.
I was so happy on parnate - so cruel that it has stopped working. No real side effects apart from insomnia. I should never have reduced it, but how was I to know?

Rose,
Have you ever tried lithium?
I discovered recently that a low dosage of 300mg/day is critical to my treatment of bipolar depression. Once I go to 450 mg/day, I actually get worse. There are both biological and subjective clinical measures of the effects of lithium that are bimodal. For instance, low dosages of lithium increase glutamate activity while high dosages of lithium reduce it.

Interesting. That would explain what I feel. I am on 225 Lithium Carbonate. It works like a charm. No more secure unit visits ever since, altough I started out with Lithium Orotate. To me it has a definite effect against suicidality.

Hi, Rose.
If you are not BIPOLAR, then tell the doctors that you want to treat your UNIPOLAR depression (MDD) with the lower dosage range of lithium currently being used to treat it. If the dosage is too high, it might actually make you feel worse. To my knowledge, no corresponding blood levels have been determined for treating MDD yet. My sweet-spot is 300 mg/day. At 450 mg/day, I begin to feel worse. I relapse at 150 mg/day.

scott, I did ask them a while ago and they said that is not how they work.... I am so afraid.... they discharged me when I was better, and now I am back under a nurse as they are so overworked and the nurse doesnt know more than his instructions to wait for the pharmacist to reduce the parnate which im still on and switch to marplan. They only speak to the psych in group meetings. They just dont have the staff. Would the lithium help with the overwhelming anxiety? Im not getting the help I need and am losing all hope.

Hi, Rose.
The remedy for your doctors' resistance to employing such a simple and benign treatment - low dosage lithium - might be as easy as using a computer, a printer, and submitting to your doctors on paper the results of your literature search using Google and Pubmed. The number of article you will find will be multitudinous. Identify the most persuasive literature that you find and submit it to your doctors. Tell them you are fighting hopelessness, and don't know how much longer you can hold out. That's a tactful way to convey to your doctors that if they don't try lithium, you might commit suicide. Unfortunately, this not an unrealistic description.
For today, I urge you to continue to struggle forward, at least for now.
My story is nothing less than one of miracles. God has a funny way of rewarding some people for their choosing to suffer indeterminate pain and struggle over death..
The severe depression I experienced began at age 17. It began as an abrupt *switch*. Within 30 minutes, I plunged from (relative) normothymia to severe and paralyzing depression. I was hit with hit depression, anxiety, and feelings of doom. It was an unfamiliar state of consciousness to me. It was genuinely traumatic. I remember looking up at the clock in my physics class. It was 10:50 AM. This time and place was the marker of the beginning of 46 years (16,790 days) of unremitting pain and struggle. I never really had time to catch my breath.
This was "flavor" of my depression:
Psychomotor retardation, anhedonia, amotivation, anergia, cognitive and memory impairments. It has been a fundamentally vegetative existence.
To be honest and accurate, I was close to remission for 6 months in 1987 as the result of treatment with a combination of two antidepressants. This was a critically important event, though. It became the carrot that impelled me to continue suffering while I chased the *possibility* of the nirvana that I learned would come with successful treatment.
I think I have been on 60 different drugs that were used in many more combinations. 1.5 years ago, in the summer of 2020, my doctor and I had run out of ideas. I always had 2-3 treatment ideas lined up just in case my current trial resulted in failure. The addition of Nardil to my treatment regime was the absolute end of the road for me. It was my last chance. Why would I expect it to work when the previous 60+ treatments failed? I had been on Nardil many times previously, and it was used in various combinations with other drugs. In 2009, I was treated with EXACTLY THE SAME DRUGS that I take now, but at DIFFERENT DOSAGES. 100 mg more of Lamictal and 15 mg less of Nardil would have given me 12 more years of life and 12 fewer years of pain and struggle.
Rose, I spent quite a bit of time composing this for you. Please allow my story to be part of your decision-making process and outlook. I don't want to see your name disappear from the board.
Sincerely,
Scott
