What I forgot to mention is why I want to try and make the medication work for me:
I have tried about 15 drugs without any really helping. Just 3 weeks ago I felt very depressed with some vey dark throughts. Within days of starting EMSAM I felt less depressed and for the most part the dark thoughts disappered.
My gut tells me this medication may help me because Nardil (a cousin to this drug) helped me a long time ago. So I want to keep trying to stay on EMSAM if I can deal with the anxiety. I am taking lorazepam and gabapentin for the anxiety but it doesn't take the anxiety down to a decent level. Just takes a nick out of it. Maybe I should take a supplement as well to help with the anxiety. My worry is the anxiety from EMSAM will never go away... meaning my body just won't adjust to it.
I know the medication is causing the anxiety because the anxiety dropped this morning when I used a half patch.Thanks again.
John
