Methadone & Anti Depressant interacting?
First, I have Bipolar Type 1. My disorder has been managed with a combo of Lexapro, Lamictal, Gabapentin as needed, and occasional use of Trazadone. I have been on the same combo for about 5 years.
Second, I am a recovering heroin addict & started the methadone clinic 2 weeks ago, and have all but quit doing daily heroin. For the first time in 5 years, I have begun cutting myself like I did as a teenager up until I got on the right meds. Is there a link between stopping heroin & depression?
