Should The Psychiatrist Be Informed Of The Self Dosage Change?
I have suffered from severe agoraphobia since I was 17. I am adhd and take adderall. I have PTSD which caused the agoraphobia to go out of remission and return , now I take 8 mg klonopin, 60 mg adderall, 600 mg seroquel. I am physically extremely healthy, my blood pressure is low, it s now 100/80. I was having severe panic to the point of things looking unreal, I was terrified to get off my bed, my brain was going a mile a minute. Out of desperation I took an extra 20 mg adderall, it worked so well I forgot my 4 mg nightly klonopin, and only needed half my dose of seroquel, I tried it the next day with same results, I m afraid to tell my psychiastrists, what do you think I should do

if you have changed dose than it will not produce any immediate effect
because that drug concentrations are present in body for a long time
so initially u feel good and than gradually it might be worsen
but best advise is given to you by your psychiatrist
if your symptoms and body needs that much of dose than no need to change
so please take help from your psychiatrist and follow his advise
take care
thank you
