In reply to The right Combo..., posted by Edgefield on April 4, 2003, at 18:46:48
Hi,
2 combos actually worked very well for me, but they were at different periods of my life (considering situational events, etc.)
#1-Effexor and Ativan: helped depression, no weight gain, helped anxiety and sleep.
#2-Celexa, Lamictal, Klonopin: No weight gain, helped depression tremendously, and slept, no social anxiety, etc.
*Also, Seroquel has done wonders for me for sleep BUT I have gained 60 on it:-( I am not psychotic I was given it for sleep.
hope this helped and all the best,
kristen
PS Can you please tell me what your experience has been with Flaxseed Oil?? I am reading A LOT about the great benefits of taking it. Is it different than the Omegga 3 Fatty Acids Oils?thanks:0)
take care
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> I've posted here before about this...but I'm seeking additional input. Is anyone here taking a good combo. of meds. that has totally eleviated their anxiety/depression? Surely those who have had success are still posting to encourage and help the rest of us....:)

> One of my anxiety symptoms is a spacey feeling...I've heard from someone here (wish I could remember their name because they were sooo very helpful) that an SSRI plus Benzo. combo. will get rid of this symptom. Any other input...
> Right now I'm taking 40mg. Fluoxetine,.25mg Klonopin, 1200mg Magnesium, B-Complex, Flaxseed Oil, L-Theanine, Digestive aide, Acidophilus and Ginger. The anxiety is gone, but the depression and spacey feeling are still lingering...
