Med Changes
Since this blog is both about my art and my psychiatric condition, I feel compelled to tell the world about my medication changes. As of Friday (with medical advice) I increased my Geodon to 80 mg (I've been on this dose before) and changed my anti-anxiety medication from Lorazapam to Klonapin. I feel much better. I actually take LESS Klonopin than I did Lorazapam. It works better. I may be switching from a low dose of Lexapro (antidepressant) to a low dose of Wellubtrin (a different class of antidepressant). I do think I'm not getting much benefit from Lexapro since I've been on it since Sept 04. I'm actually eager to make this change, but it will take weaning off the Lexapro. I feel fantastic now, so I'm actually not moaning about my mental state. I just want to keep the public notified. Any one who knows about these psych meds can feel free to comment.

Interesting comparing your meds combo to that of a friend also trying to figure out the right balance for her brain. But more importantly I am glad your current mix lets you write that you feel fantastic.
