I appreciate all the great advice I've received.
I am currently taking the 6mg patch and taking it off at night (over the last 3 nights) but I don't seem to be getting the same energy boost as when I left the patch on all day. I'm worried that the 4 or so mgs I am getting isn't enought to pull me out of depression. Taking the patch off at night has helped some with the anxiety the patch caused.
I am thinking of two choices:
1. Cut the 6mg in half and put one half on in the morning and then the other half 12 hours later. This way I get 6mg during the day and the 3mg dosages doesn't whack me as hard as one 6mg patch.
2. Leave the 6mg patch on the full 24 hours.
Taking the patch off at night has lessened my anxiety some... or maybe I am just getting used to the patch when I put it on in the morning.My goal is to stay on the patch as I think it will help me but I somehow need to manage the anxiety syptoms.
Any thoughts?
