> You are opening up much more. The real SLS without depression showing himself! Thats good! Compared to a few years ago it is a night and day difference. I'm still puzzled by this because you arent doing anything majorly different with meds, are you? It sounds almost exactly like what you did in the past.
Previously -> Currently1. Nardil: 90 mg/day -> 75 mg/day
2. nortriptyline: 100 mg/day -> 75 mg/day
3. Lamictal: 300 mg/day Unchanged
4. lithium: 300 mg/day Unchanged
I have gravitated towards these medications in the past. Over the years, each drug demonstrated some degree of improvement, but my responses were generally short-lived. Some produce a very, very . early in treatment. The first time, the dosage of Lamictal was too and the dosage of nortriptyline was too high. It turns our that I was on the right drugs, but at the wrong dosages. If nothing else, my experience demonstrates that there is an optimal dosage of some drugs. Nortriptyline has a very hard dosage window. 50-150 mg/dL This is considered putativeThe funny(?) thing is that, with the FDA approval of Lamctal in 1996, all four of the drugs that I am responding to were available to cure me.

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
