> you people don't know how many meds I tried to treat my depression. lithium is no exception. now, getting rid off all meds because none offers relief i am with benzos. of course huuuuge dose. a dose equivalent 12mg of xanax. none in this board should have taken such an amount. but for me to function this much is required. two weeks so far on the combo. 6mg of xanax and same amount of ativan.

Rocky, I hear that you're saying that the benzos keep you going but not sure if you'll like how you feel once off? You say you've tried every med so I won't ask about that. How many Doctors have you seen? Just one PDoc? Have you been to the hospital?I hope you will post back to me. I'm sure there must be some options not thought through yet. Do you have family?
Hope to hear from you~Jade
