I'm wondering which meds I need to cope with life. What meds are you on?

Singulair/Montelukast & Xyzal/Levocetirizine~ for allergy & sinus problems.
Buspar/Buspirone~ for anxiety.
Neurontin/Gabapentin~ for OCD.
Trazodone~ to help with sleep & minor depression.
Pepcid/Famotidine~ for GERD(Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease)
Haldol/Haloperidol~ for possible Delusional Disorder.
Oxybutynin~ for frequent urination.
Klonopin/Clonazepam~ mostly only take before ridding possibly crowded buses because I feel claustrophobic like.
I know it's alot & some may think they're interfering with each other & I'd have less problems on fewer meds but I had all those problems when I wasn't on any medication except for the frequent urination.
I also take a couple other meds for maie-pattern baldness, to reduce my body & facial hair, & decrease my sex drive.

That's between you and your doctor(s) to determine.

Me? Pharmaceuticals? None. Recreationally & for minor anxiety, aches, and pains? Marijuana. Sometimes a bit of alcohol, sometimes a bit of caffeine.

Currently
Zoloft/Sertaline 100mg
Vyvanse 40mg (for co-morbid ADHD)
Adderall 20mg

Previously taken
Prozac/Fluoxetine
Olanzapine - this made me sleep entire weekends
Symbyax - a combined form of the above two meds
Cymbalta
Lithium
Lorazepam

Is there anything you've taken that you would say was particularly helpful?

Mirtazapine and valium as needed, still have a prescription for trazodone to help me sleep as well which I don't take that often, now even less since the mirtazapine causes sedation so I take it in the evening, but yeah it is supposed to help with depression, cannot really tell if it is doing that or not at this point but also sort of helps me sleep.

Aside from that I like to smoke cannabis for medicinal reasons and admittedly I enjoy the feeling.
