thank god its bed time

i say that same thing to myself everynight.  i am on the same medications but i am reducing from 30 to 22.5 because i am experiencing so much anxiety. hope my mood won't be affected negatively.  hope you sleep well and feel better

Bozzer, I am not familiar with plegalin, its use, dosing, and possible side effects. But I can tell you this for certain from experience, you will not have your life back, and I assume you mean who you were before the first pill, as long as mirtazapine is on the scene! I say this with a thought as to why you were prescribed the stuff to begin with, which would be your life prior to the medicine. So, is that the life you want back, or your life minus whatever problem that sent you to the doctor to begin with. If you don't mind, I would like to add this for those who aren't aware:

Clinical Depression - being depressed because for what ever reason, your body isn't in harmony with the making, distributing, and reabsorbtion of seratonin and norepinephrine. Too much = manic, Not enough = depression.

Situational Depression - Depressed because something in your life is making you sad, and you have no control over the outcome. And, when things change, because of time or resolution of the problem, the depression gradually resolves.

You really have to take a hard look at why you are depressed before letting a doctor start handing you powerful psychotropic drugs, Bozzer, I don't know your problem, and it is your private medical info and not my business to know. I just saw your close with needing your life back, and I have written that myself more than once, so I am with you and wish you well. I just thought I would use this opportunity to define the difference. Godspeed my friend, David

pregalin is really a medication for nerve pain, but it is also used to treat anxiety ...as i learned after yelling at a pharmacist that i did not have pain, imhad anxiety.  i never saw the pharmacist again!
