Hi Buns
>I am good, I hope you are well too.
:)
I've been ill with a virus but I'm ok now :)
>didnt feel any worse so didnt bother
That's cool :)
I think it would be good to have some Depixol at home just in case you start to get paranoid or anything and need to restart it. I'm sure your wife will tell you if anything strange starts to happen!!! :S
>I have stopped mirtazapine
Goodbye weight gain :)
>I am taking valium now and again for when it gets bothersome and it seems to be working very well
What dose do you find effective? Just curious.
>Im cutting through work and personal projects like a hot knife though butter :-)
Excellent! I wish I was LOL!
>well if it aint broke dont fix it!
I agree. We keep the 0.5mg and 1mg Fluanxol tabs at the pharmacy because quite a few people still take them. Some people take them 'when required' rather that taking them every day. The most common dose seems to be 0.5mg twice a day or 1mg in the morning. We don't have anyone on Depixol 3mg tabs though. GPs don't seem to prescribe Depixol around here.
Are you going to keep taking the Neulactil Buns? Please be careful if you decide to stop it. Coming off APs completely can be difficult.
Best regards
Ed
