I was in your position 2+ years ago. It took over a dozen shrinks before I found one willing to help me taper- one at a time. It was not easy and at times I was very ill. I have a lot of anger towards the shrink that put me on so many- it was so unnecessary- he just didn't know how to treat a very treatment resistant patient with bipolar 1 disorder so he kept on loading the drugs. If you cannot find a psychiatrist to help you, ask your family practioner or sometimes psychologists have names of sympathetic drs. i wish you all the best-judy
