Medications you take for Asperger's syndrome

I take Meds for my behavior,do you?

Currently on:

Prozac 30mg daily (i guess it makes me feel so good i dont care if my pants are itchy or the toothpaste tastes bad LOL)

Topamax50mg 2x daily (now advertized on tv as a migrain pill?!?)

Inopran 50mg daily (not AS related)

I have been on this medicine for over 7 years and it has been along time since i've had any incident,I personally wanna ween myself off and see how ill do,if something bad happens (murder or the like :O ) i can always start them again

thoughts?

personal experiences with meds?

limmericks?

I was on Remeron for depression and insomnia at one time, but have successfully weaned myself off it and have been drug-free for three years now.

I am currently worried about regressing into a depressive state, though.

Does this really help with insomnia? If so can I get my GP to proscribe this or does it have to be a phycologist?

I have suffered with it since I was 13 and have tried alot of prescription meds for it but they either leave me groggy the next day are habit forming that is if they work at all.

What are you taking for anxiety and uncontrolled aggression? How well are the meds working for you?

about six months ago i was put into a mental hospital for a week, because i had some kind of a break down. and was not myself, this was almost right before i left for four months. they put me on respirdal and almost immeadiatley i had an allergic reaction to it. then they tried seroquel. i slept for almost three days straight i was so tired, im not kidding. i couldn't even stay awake long enough to keep my eyes open without falling asleep. as soon as i was discharged i stopped taking seroquel. it just made me too tired, besides if i ever have a breakdown like that i'll be smarter than to get myself into a mental hospital again.
