lol
Yeah Buspar is a joke. I concluded that when I worked in a vet's office and learned they give the same human doses to small dogs to calm them from separation anxiety. Seriously - how can that do anything for an adult?
Never did Klonopin. But I think that's addicting as well? I've heard stories but not everything you hear is true so I dunno. I really liked Lexapro. But like I said above, I couldn't swing it financially. And I'm also on Wellbutrin.
How horrible vomiting must have been. And I completely relate to knowing when your funk is coming. I can't always talk myself through it, but I know the best ways to cope with it all. Don't answer the phone unless it's Mom or a certain friend, and hide under my favorite blanket. Isolation actually works best once I've been triggered into a funk. I come out of it after a few days usually (but as mentioned in another thread, this bout has been going for a bit too long lol.)
So for me, it's... *clears throat*...
Celexa
Lithium
Wellbutrin
Risperdal
Depakote
Xanax as needed
Trazadone as needed for sleep
Yes I'm a walking pharmacy. But I promise you I'm no nut job............................as long as I take my meds regularly
. I've been on a lot of other meds since '93. Nothing has worked as well as this current cocktail. 'Bout f'ing time.
Red - do you see a psychiatrist? Do you mind if I ask who you see? We may share doctors lol.
And I'm just going to put it out there - if anyone has any questions about drugs or various conditions, I'll welcome pm's. I may not be able to help, but mental illness is so damn taboo that people are often too ashamed to mention anything to anyone about it, especially on a public forum. I've been through a lot - abuse, eating disorder, addiction, bipolar, depression, anxiety, anger issues, self esteem, etc. There's always a sort of bond between those who suffer from shit like this. I'm open if you are.
