Thanks, Scott. I've tried augmenting w/Cylert, Lithium, Pindolol, Ritalin, and Dexedrine. (Plus ongoing Psychotherapy.) When I moved, new Pdoc went berserk that I was taking Parnate, Dexedrine, Visken & Temazepam & wants me off them. I will take this list to next appointment and hope for something that helps!
