Used to take a cocktail of antipsychotics until I realized I wasn't psychotic and quit everything.
I used to but don't anymore. I'm diagnosed with schizoaffective, aspergers and adhd. I just deal with it without drugs now.
How?
I sometimes wonder what I would be like if I didnt have my adhd meds, then I think about all the potential talent wasted because I would never finish anything...
It is and today I am thinking it was a bad idea to quit taking them. I decide to quit taking them at some time usually every year when I determine I am not mentally ill, but apparently I probably am.
I quit taking them a couple months ago and was doing really good. Seems my life has gone to shit since then and I am hardly aware of it other than people are now avoiding me and wanting nothing to do with me because of their judgments on my behavior. I am probably not self aware but am able to determine there is something going on when everyone around me comments on it. Personally it makes me feel persecuted and that I should destroy them for their accusations, but I question if that is also a crazy thing to think and notice other people are not having these problems, so perhaps it is me. Really sucks because my gut instinct is that I am right and it is the rest of the world that has it out for me, but I should probably start taking them regardless before I do something horrible, which I have been considering.
used to be, setraline for OCD, but not any more. Medication only relieves ppl temporarily, I took up behavioral therapy and had a wonderful supporting gf, and now am a free man, free from ocd and the dreadful medication...
I took medications for my limp cock, but they didn't work. I wish I wasn't pathetic.
Nikkiclaire knows how to be a naughty nurse. She would enjoy sliding a finger up your bum. At least you would be helping her finger, and enabling medical naughtiness.
From the depths of my mind that is arguably as equally dirty as yours. *smile*. I doubt I am far from the mark. But, I'll let you speak for yourself. We are all looking forward to some inspirational anti-prudish remarks.
PS. I can neither confirm nor deny that I am McBean, charli.m, LGRAS, or anybody else.
I take meds. Still waiting on a referral for a therapist that specializes in the therapy I need because meds can't fix everything all by themselves...18 months and counting lol. Free health care has it's pros and cons haha.
Awwwwwwww, undress your boyfriend and hold him close so that you feel his heart beating. Isn't love wonderful?
I was diagnosed at age 23 with chronic severe depression, anxiety and ADHD. I was given welbutrin for depression, and it made it worse, so I never tried anything for depression again. I never took anything for anxiety, but tried a couple of things for the adhd, only one of which worked, straterra, which was taken off the market not long after it came out. Today I take absolutely nothing and no longer have depression or anxiety. I still deal with the adhd, but it's just not that big if a deal.
I've been on different medications since 15. Turning 20 soon. Right now eating anti-psychotics for hallucinations, paranoia, anxiety and to balance mood swings. I have very high "risk" for bipolar or may have it already, so doctors say.
I was on stuff for my anxiety, depression and bulimia but they just made me feel worse so I just stopped taking them (wouldn't recommend because the withdrawal is shit). Therapy hasn't helped either, so I'm waiting on a reassessment
Not for a psychological condition but I do for a physical condition. I've had a kidney transplant so I need to take meds and (metabolic) steroids to keep the transplanted kidney from rejecting. I'm getting really fat too...
Quite a lot if people here so far seem to be on some sort of medication. I'm
actually surprised by that.
