[QUOTE="ML, post: 211342"] Thank you so much for asking. It went ok. She suggested we completely ween off the Celexa from the 7mg and see if the Tenex helps the anxiety on its own. (keeping fingers crossed). On another front she and I got into a verbal spat . I guess I was defensive. She suggested that I look for alternatives to my 1mg of ativan I take each night. (DON'T TAKE MY LITTLE WHITE PILL AWAY from me, it's all I have LOL). I guess maybe I am dependent upon it, maybe even addicted depending upon how you use the term, except I've been on this dose for years and I don't feel that I need a higher dose. It's funny because I'm in a 12 step program (alanon) as I am surrounded by addicted people in my life (boss and husband alcohol, son sugar/food) and mostly my addiction is other people, not substances, except occasional sugar cravings myself. Just don't take away my little white pill. Hmmm. So now I think maybe I should consider withdrawing from it. Maybe I should let go of the dependence upon the Celexa too. I guess I could learn other coping strategies. I've been on ADs a long time too. I'm afraid to come off medications but maybe it is time? How do you know? Thanks again for asking WG. ML [/QUOTE]
