Have meds ever made you even worse off

When I was on it I was having severe panic and anxiety attacks. I felt like I was stuck in a bus with no escape. I had delusions and felt so crappy the whole time mentally and physically.

Don’t worry I promise u will come back to normal mate. Just know that

my only complaint is ever since I quit smoking several days ago i have been more tired than usual. not good considering i just woke up and barely felt like I got a hint of sleep.

I understand where you’re coming from and I’m so sorry you’re going through it. I’ve been there. I hope you find some solution that works, whatever that may be.

Edited to Add: As in different meds or no meds. I realized that might sound ominous and I did not mean to sound that way at all so I edited. LOL

I’m so out of it i forgot to mention i just called my local clinic and reported my symptom to the front desk and the nurse should be contacting me soon. fingers crossed for something good.

I quit smoking a couple months ago. I had tried numerous times before but each time I couldn’t do it because my meds were making me feel bad. I highly recommend feeling stable on your meds for at least two weeks before trying to quit.

since i stopped taking it ive felt like that all the time
how long did u feel like that after u stopped taking it?
and do you feel now as you did before taking it? or did you learn to live with the changes
sorrryyyy again to bother you !!! i just dont know who to ask

After 1.5 months I started feeling better emotionally and physically and after 3 months I felt almost normal again and after 4.5 months I felt normal again

I got worse on Abilify. I had continuous, nonstop paranoid thoughts. It was so bad that I was in tears. I wasn’t depressed. I was distraught.

Meds always made me worse by bad side effects. At least some of them did make me feel better though or so it seemed.

one dose of abilify and i asked for an antidote, was crawling out of my skin and it was a low starter dose.

I don’t think it’s an AP, but I was put on Zoloft for what my doctor thought was postpartum depression about a year after I had my son. I started cutting really bad, started yelling and screaming at my husband all the time, was short-tempered with my daughter, didn’t do as well in school (and I’m normally the perfect student), and then it all culminated to me taking the whole bottle of Zoloft one night when my husband wouldn’t pay attention to me. I was taken off Zoloft, but no one put me on anything else or recommended I see a pdoc, so I went without help for another five years.

so… you think ill go back to being who i was in terms of aspirations and motivation etc, attitude ??
you got your “old-self” back? thats great to hear but hard to believe i feel like who i was has been erased
my happy nature replaced by an all-consuming angst… did you also feel uneasy by yourself? like u needed company, like did the xeplion cause that in you?

Hey mate,

Yes i had days i was fine maybe after 2 weeks of stopping the injection, they were brief periods.

I ended up in hospital when i took xeplion as it just built up and made me completely paranoid and delusional.

But yes, there were days when i felt fine.

P.s. You will come right you not stuck!! I thought i was but with time u will heal :slight_smile:

thank you so much… wish you the best
long live Wallafish

Seroquel and Paxil made me worse. I tried each of them only one time. Never again.

No they not made me worse
