Am replacing former post with this one.. I forgot my Paxil 40 mg. yesterday. and had been on Xanax, 0.25 mg 3 per day. since the week end. Yesterday I felt SOOOOOO GOOOOOD !... Yesterday, I started back on clonazepam, 1 mg total, and took the paxil as usual. AND< I feel so edgey ! I don't understand, which drug is causing this, the paxil or the clonazepam.
A friend of mine has just started paxil at 10 mg, she is alot brighter looking, and she has stopped her clonazepam, 1.5 per day. I think she is still on an A-Typical AP at night.
I can't beleive the change in her !
So much better !
Any way, I am sure it is the clons making me too dopey and drugged and nervous (when they wear off) I am starting to dislike them immensely.
Yee Haw ! Thanks Stigs ! I am so lonely right now ! Hmmm, come to think of it, I DO drool after I take a high blood pressure pill. (side effect) IT's fun ! Stigs, thank you for your support about my situation. I think I WOULD fight it tooth and nail, if worse came to worse. KISSES ! Lynn
I dont take the xanax but have valium instead. I have to be careful with how much I take of that stuff. It builds up body stress in me like you wouldnt believe. I end up seriously short tempered and impossible to live with, so I have to seriously go light on em.
I was on a heart medication once, and it didnt make me drool, but turned me into a raging maniac. For about a month, I hated everyone, was darned vocal about it, and pretty much would have picked a fight with anyone who looked at me strange.
I mentioned that to my pdoc once, and he was like. . they put you on xxx (wish I remembered what xxx was) and that is just cruel to do to someone who is bi-polar.
Paxil, and all of the serotonin builders turn me into a drooling zombie even at very very low doses. I do wish they worked for me. I was on imeprimine when I was kid and that worked FANTASTIC, but have tried and it just doesnt do it for me anymore. oh well.
Its not what is perfect but what is flawed that makes someone unique and beautiful
