That is a lot of clomipramine. NO wonder you are exhausted. HOw fast did you titrate up? Did you try and hold on at a lower dose for some weeks to see if it could kick in? Clomipramine helped me with obsessive ruminations well (75mg), but it took four weeks or so to start helping.
I actually did combine a little SSRI and clomipramine, but these were small doses--50 mg clomipramine and 10mg Lexapro. At higher doses I am sure pdocs would be fearful of serotonin syndrome.
So it's possible (though I could imagine some pdocs being sticklers and saying "nope" at even combining low doses), but not at the dose you are on....
