OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there a reason that you are considering it? There is a contraindication as 5htp converts to seratonin and you are also taking a seratonin reuptake inhibitor, giving your system very little say in its own feedback measures.
Well I use to take 5htp and L-Tyrosine and now I got Klonopin. Klonopin helps the most, but I was just wondering if I could take either of the other two with it, or if I should just stop taking those and take a higher dose of Klonopin if i need to?
your doctor should help you determine your Klonopin dosing. I don't think that using 5-HTP or l-tyrosine are necessary, or even beneficial. I'd assume that your doctor would forbid it (but i don't listen to doctors anyways). If Klonopin isn't working for you, I think you should try using a different medication. Most people go through quite a few SSRI's before they find one that works for them.
Well Klonopin helped me alot at the lowest dose just .5mgs. However my anxiety symptoms are still just as bad as before, so I think that i may need a higher dose, or to switch meds that will have an effect on anxiety symptoms, but i havent found anything yet that helps to well with anxiety symptoms. Maybe ill call my doctor and get a higher dose of Klonopin to see if it will help with anxiety symptoms at higher doses. I get great anxiety with eye contact, I sweat and blush and crap like that, these are all my anxiety symptoms that I am looking to eliminate.
