> I'm not sure what you mean by 'down'.
> Some people find tianeptine makes them feel weird in various ways, and others find that they feel wired up on it, and others that they feel amotivated, which I guess means kinda spread out and unable to collect themselves.By "down" I mean depressed and totally amotivated. And on top of that I noticed that my feelings get much more intensive; when I feel sad, it will turn to very very deep sadness like I never experienced before.It gives me alot of moodswings and aggravates the anxiety.Stablon also makes me tired instead of wired up.
Maybe I'm taking the wrong medicine as my major problem is situated in anxiety feelings (without any proper cause, it's just there the whole day going up and down).Lorazepam gives me relief for couple of hours and makes me feeling "normal" again.But I think it's the anxiety that is causing the depression moods from time to time.I don't respond well however on typical anxiety meds like Xanax or Lysanxia; when I take those kind of meds, the anxiety feelings are much worse afterwards.Not so with Lorazepam.
I've tried Zyprexa (Olanzapine)and Seroquel (quetiapine) but didn't experience any good results with those.Zyprexa made me in a constant moodswing,and feeling unreal (difficult to describe this but definately not in a happy state of mind!) and Seroquel gave me very anxious dreams.I didn't try both meds very long, as with most meds.I'm to scared it will only get things worse.
Do you think Sulperide would have an impact on the anxiety?
BTW:I wonder what is in the Paroxetine that made me feel so good. It didn't last long however; I started with half a pill and that worked for about 2-3 weeks, then a whole pill which worked again for about 3 weeks. So whatever it is, it's something that is addicting...Anyhow, today I only took 1 Stablon and definately felt better then the days before.But the anxiety level was still up.So I'm in doubt, I don't think a higher dose is good for me and with a lower dose I still suffer from lethargy and higher level of anxiety for some hours and I don't know if the anxiolytic effect will kick in or not.Because if it doesn't and I need to take more Lorazepam, I might as well do so without taking Stablon.The point of taking Stablon is to get rid of the Lorazepam...
I tried Picamilon for 2 days some days ago but didn't feel any difference either. Of course that was in combination with the Stablon. Maybe it would give a better effect without the Stablon.But I've read it has some MAO effect and I don't think that would be a good idea to combine with the Nortryptiline and Amytriptiline I'm taking (although it's both is small doses...)?Any experts on this one?
