EMSAM - Day #1 (6/13/06)

Posted by zero on June 19, 2006, at 11:31:24

DX: BPII, w. Severe Generalized Social Phobia
MEDS: 2mg./day Clonazepam, 400mg./day Gabapentin, 25mg./day Topamax (+other non-psych.)

Put 1/2 of 20mg. (6mg. per 24hr.) patch on at 11am.
@ 1 hr. felt start of increased energy.
@ 2 hrs. mood improved.
@ 3 hrs. mood improving greatly, maybe start of hypomania.
@ 4 hrs., still very good mood/hypomania, but increasing anger/irritability/hostility/agitation/self-hatred.
@ 7 hrs. removed the patch because I could no longer stand the increased hostility/irritability et. al.
De-stabilized for days after. Afraid to re-try 'til could get to speak with my doctor.
