> im desperate. In a very bad state - no memory, and anxiety so bad that im unable to go out unaccompanied...The uk nhs have put me on lamotrigine... and im not bipolar, and dont want to get addicted to it. . I just dont know what to do. Is there a chance of parnate working again (they still havent taken me off it) I could go off it and try parnate or nardil again, but suspect nardil would not be as powerful after having been on parnate, which is stronger and did work well for me. I am very scared.My baseline was very fearful and full of anxiety and it seems that parnate covered it up well, but now its not working, the anxiety has become even more unbearable.
>Lamotrigine is not necessarily a bad choice. You could try adding lithium too, it can sometimes boost the response to antidepressants.
As for anxiety, my approach is to deliberately focus on the anxiety, trying to feel it a fully as you can, and if you do this, the anxiety goes away faster than if you try to suppress it.
