Scott, I try to reduce the parnate by one 10 mg pill and the pain is excruciating - dont know how to describe it, mental and psychic crippling pain.. I cant tolerate it, and that is just 10mg out of a 40 mg dose. Strange thing is that when I was high on the parnate, I reduced without any problem, but now i just cannot tolerate the pain.
It is similar with lamotrigine - I tried to reduce by 25 mg and the depression and anxiety were unbearable. I have discovered a lamotrigine withdrawal group on facebook, and the people on there suggest reducing very gradually, using a syringe, and lamotrigine dissolved in water. They say its harder to come of f it than benzos - Not everyone experiences it that way, and not everyone has the horrible side effects of memory loss and loss of communication ability, finding the right word etc..I dont know whether managing to come off lamotrigine would bring back my memory or not, or would it make my mental state even worse.
Obviously lamotrigine has worked for you, but it has been terrible for me, except for the 4 months when I was ok.

I dont have much choice re. moving forward do I? Adding lithium is the only thing that the NHS can offer. You have told me what works for you
but what options do I have ?I dont think that adding lithium will be a magic cure. But I am depending on a useless mental health dept. What options do I have, if I cannot even get off my meds.
