I take baclofen with my neurontin too. Helps a lot - so does the Zoloft!

Janice I have been taking ativan for depression. Just half of a mg 2 times
a day.
taking more baclofen than drug company says to take but it goes well with
the neuronton and hydrocodone.
im afraid if i stop taking this stuff all at once i would look like one of
those fish you see on the cartoons with the great big eyes!

My only experience with
antidepressants is using Zoloft. I
have not gone off of it, so I am really not much help to
you.
I don't go to my neuro any more. I see my
family doctor-who was with me from the beginning of TM in
ER-and my pain
management doc. Both serve me
well. I get all my meds from the 2 of them
also. Right now we are only treating
the
aftermath of TM and they seem to know more than my neuro.
Have your doc's prescribed a med for depression
that does not have withdrawals?
Wish you much luck.

Wishing all of my tm family a warm,

I had such a bad experience with
antidepressents did fine on It (effexor)until
withdrawals came - when I first got diagnosed tm and then on
cobra, but When ins ran out and so did my pills I got so
sick from not titrating the dose down appropriately and have
been afraid of getting back on them. I know I am getting
more Depressed and a new dr ordered presiq .??. But am
afraid of having same prob again. I know this time of year
hits me hardest - pain cold & wet weather
exacerbates my painful symptoms. Any feedback on meds
> (4 depression) that seem to help without causing more
fatigue or addiction feelings when u stop) Or on the new
prestiq 4 depression. I know I need something. Also from
reading ur emails .. Do you ALL go to RA dr's as well as
nero ? I go
> to a nero dr in memphis tn. But he only gives baclefen
80 and topomax 100 I hurt all nite long!!! Up and
down.miserable : I'm open 2 any feedback. Thanks for
help Preparing for blues! Jacduv
