Do you take medication?

Post Reply New Topic

I do - I take aripiprazole for anxiety (mainly used for schizophrenics), melatonin to sleep, certain asthma medications, and sertraline (anti-depressants).

I take a few others as well, but they're mostly homeopathic.

i used to be on ADDerall...I am currently missing it. I self-medicate a lot of different herbs but they don't help too much with my executive dysfunction.. Adderall did, but the long term side effects were awful.

i was on adderall for 3 months but i got off of it since i felt like crap on it.
and on lexapro and invega for a week and didnt like it.
i dont like medication at all.
and i went to a psychologist who suggested me to go on medication for anxiety but i dont want to anymore.

Yes. I take Anafranil for my OCD/anxiety, Lamictal for my AS mood swings, and Klonopin (as needed) for panic attacks.

I was on SSRI's for twelve years and went off them 5 months ago. I am doing ok. THis five month period is the first time since age 13 i am completely free from any medications or drugs or alcohol.
It has been very hard but I am doing ok. I am exercising, eating well, and basically building a meaningful and cosy rut to live in which revolves around my special interest. (always my special interest....) I am even seeing people now - who come to visit.

Im on CELEXA for anxiety

STRATERRA for attention issues

small dosage of ADDERALL on school days

Melatonin for sleep


oh and Nasonex and Singulair for allergies

I take Chlorpromazine for schizophrenia and imipramine for depression, i hate SSRIs.

i dont take any meds. im a stong advocate for being mental/whatever and choosing to be med free

Zoloft for depression and anxiety? It also helps calm me down and I do not get as sensory

So people can tell when I didnt take meds cause I am grumpy and get bothered at everything. I am sometimes hyper too

We just increasede my dose from 50 to 75 mg

I was on paroxetine for about 8 months once. I had an initial affect, got me out of that particularly bad state but since it's ment to take a while to work I guess it was just a placebo affect. After that, no obvious improvement. However, it did have some strong psychological side affects so I stopped eventually.

I sometimes think I should give them another go but I'd have to be particularly careful.

I'm on loxapine and it doesn't do anything to me. Maybe it takes away my "black holes"... a psychotic depressive anxious thing... but now that I prayed for everyone and know that everyone is saved, I don't need it anymore, though it's still nice to have it. I also take Prozac, even though I'm supposed to be just taking the loxapine. The shrink says he wants me to keep taking the loxapine even though it doesn't do anything to me, good or bad.

I don't take anything but I used to take cod liver oil capsuals for concentration.

I used to take tablets to help me sleep and medication for my OCD was once kinda recommended, but that's it.

Become so ill from psychotropic med.

No meds for me.

I take Co-enzyme Q10, Brahmi ginko, Pharmaceutical grade fish oil, selenium and folate supplements. The occassional green tea.

Nope, I never did. I'm fine without it.

I take paroxetine for anxiety/depression.
