I titrated up to 20mg per my MD's order. It has really helped for my depression, but my anxiety seems to be different now. I feel internal shaking and when I bring a cup or food to my mouth, my hands shake, but I feel shaky all over even though you can't see it. I just went down to 10mg today per the Psych docs suggestion.
She thinks I have BP II and I've been taking low dose Respirdal 0.0625 (very low). I'm also on Klonopin 1mg twice/day and Xanax as needed. She had me on low dose Depakote too. I would open a capsule and take half the sprinkles of 125mg capsule. I am very med sensative and couldn't handle the sedation, so thats why the low doses. Now she thinks I should ditch the Depakote and try Lamictal as it's not as sedating.
Anyone ever experience this shaking/nervousness which is internalized. It's not the terrible anxiety I felt before, but it's a form of anxiety combined with sever nervousness. Hard to explain.
Thanks in advance...
Gary
