>---------------Hey Neal - I wasn't playing with meds; the PDoc prior to my last one, was the one adding everything. I forgot to mention, before he put me on the Zoloft, we tried Prozac for a week-and I couldn't take it after it caused cloudy urine and irregular pupil. This is when he took me from that to 150 mg Zoloft; next visit 450 mg Wellbutrin with no taper on. I was getting worse and worse, so I had to quit them. He did not help me when I said I could not tolerate symptoms. Just asked me what I wanted to take. I had no choice but to quit because I have a household to support, kid in college, and school. My future depends on completing graduate program. I don't have any choice other than being functional.
Again, to be clear, this forum has nothing to do with any of those decisions with the meds...and I only found this forum in January, I think.
