We're all so different when it comes to being guinea pigs for Big Pharma. I've been doing well on Depakote, while lamictal did nothing but increase my manic episodes. I've been taking Trintellex 20mg for a little over a week, and so far it's making me a bit woozy and somewhat sedated (but definitely drugged), and hopefully will help me out of major depression. I took CBD gummies (non THC) last night and had the first good night's sleep in weeks. I was evaluated for TMS sessions two weeks ago, but I really wish I could find a doctor who would prescribe a lousy 0.5mg or even 0.25mg of either alprazolam or clonazapam. I did well taking it only as needed for anxiety attacks and rare but horrible panic attacks. Even prescribing doctors seem to be tapering their patients off Benzos completely. At my age, and over the decades I've been taking them only as prescribed, it really sucks that we have such a crappy, expensive, and useless healthcare system in this country. My wife hired an attorney this afternoon to help us get started in becoming permanent European residents. We each have dual citizenship, although in a S. American country, but many E.U. countries are closing their doors, or at least making it a lot more difficult to emigrate.
