Wow it's been 6 months since I last wrote in my journal. Well, I finally saw a pschiatrist and was put on Paxil and Klonopin. It's been 5 weeks since I started it and I am starting to see light at the end of that dark tunnel. I am only taking 5mg of paxil because that is all I am able to handle without feeling awful. My dr. said that was not enough to make me feel better, but I actually do feel a little better. Every time I try to up the dose it makes me feel worse. I still don't get out much but I am trying a little more.

I am so glad to see you back. You are doing well on progress. You should be proud. It is hard. Hang in there.
hi, just in case you stop in at d.s., i read your new medicine is helping. your dose of paxil is low to me, i take 40mg. and i also take klonopin, i take 2mg. i take it twice a day. if i have to go out i take 2. even though we both take paxil, i wanted to ask you, are you paxil cr or regulur paxil? once my doctor switch me to the paxil cr. ( i think they were the initials), by day 2, and i had only taken 1 the day before, i felt weird, and just not right. i called dt., he took me right off and put back on reg. paxil. sry, i just wrote a book, didn\'t mean too. lol well i have been on both those medicines for over 10 years also i take depakote. ( i have tried so medicines, until my dt. found the combination i am on now, not perfect, but better. good luck and hope things keep getting better. xo, ronna
