Hi there,
The main reason I think the Celexa MIGHT (repeat MIGHT) be making me feel sluggish is because I read on here more than once(!) that the SSRI's can induce fatigue.
However, my pdoc also increased my Lithium (I'm still on a relatively low dose compared to others) and did a thyroid test and if that's low again, that could explain this tired, sluggish feeling. I'll find out later this coming week, as I have a pdoc appointment, thankfully.
Yep, we are both still in the process of working up on the Lamictal - slowly for sure -- what dosage do you think you will get to before you top off? I hope to get to 100mg/day and then take it carefully from there to possibly 150-200 (then again, given my sensitivity to meds, I'll be happy to get to 100!)
I think I told you I'm *only* on 100 mg/night of Seroquel at bedtime and it puts me to sleep gradually. I could not handle anything higher than that, but have heard of people on 500+ mg of Seroquel - that would probably kill me! ;-)
Since you no longer take Seroquel for sleep, what DO you take? Just curious.
Thanks for posting your email address! Expect a message soon! :-)
