> Hi Scott, I am trying to take in what I think you might be saying (with half flying over my head) to figure out if there are palltive measures to take in order to ease my withdrawal off pristiq. I also take klopopin, which, I hope to keep taking, and Dexedrine MAYBE in small does....as quickly as possible, Lets say the strong shock over the usually over atteuanted i experienced before.

Using an anticovulsant might help. Trileptal was mentioned on the Withdrawal board as being effective. It is low on side effects. Someone else mentioned Depakote. Of the two, I can't guess which one would work best. My first reaction was to say Depakote, but the account given of Trileptal was compelling. Both drugs reduce glutamate excitability by inhibiting sodium channels and promoting GABA activity, although I would guess Depakote would be better at accomplishing the latter.
Morganpmiller has just posted that Depakote helped him with SRI withdwawal. Your taking Klonopin is not a problem given that it might mitigate withdawal somewhat.
