thanks everyone, there is a ton of stuff out there. After spending two years rapid cycling on AD/mood stabilizer combos, I was so darn happy to get off the Paxil, (and before that, lexapro), that I was suspicious of causing the cycling. I had to finally go off paxil cold turkey to do it. I have a hard time getting off the ADs; once I start one, even a small tapering makes me violently depressed. I decided to go cold turkey and go into the hospital instead. So I'm cautious about what I add to my little cocktail, you see.
What Barbara said about Bipolars being really sensitive to ADs and needing to microdose is an idea that is new to me. It's something to keep in mind.
What is a TCA???
