In reply to which drug? please help! (dep, ocd, insomnia), posted by randermin on February 24, 2007, at 22:31:26
> so out of these four: lamictal, emsam, wellbutrin, or tianeptine (least likely). does anyone have any thoughts? basically I need to avoid insomnia, and mania or anxiety more than anything else.
These don't seem to be very good choices for someone with OCD, anxiety and insomnia. Especially the EMSAM and the Wellbutrin, which are both activating and may increase all 3 of the above mentioned problems. I'm thinking you need something a little more sedating like Luvox or Anafrinil, both approved for OCD, and both AD's so they should also help your depression and anxiety. Also, adding a benzo, i.e., Klonopin, Zanax, or one of the others could also help a lot and definitely help with your insomnia problem. Other's will give more advice..good luck in finding the right med. for you.-Monte
