The worst med for you

Seroquel.

I gained weight and just felt disgusting. Totally out of it. Like I had filthy chemicals running through my veins. Drugged.

And Lexapro. Omg… I gained 60 POUNDS on this drug, and it took me down so low, I made one of my suicide attempts on it. It just made me feel like there was nothing left.

Imipramine
Its a powerful old school tricyclic antidepressant.

It made me high and psychotic for years.

Abilify and Olanzapine. Abilify made me impulsive, compulsive shop and hypersexual. Olanzapine never worked for my psychosis, lots of weight gain, high cholesterol, prediabetes, high blood pressure and high liver enzymes. I am on Risperdal now, only issue is negative symptoms so I am going to try a low moderate dose of Clozapine.

The worst med I was on was Sertindole. It did eliminate my positive symptoms though but the side effects were horrific.

Clozapine and Seroquel. Super sedating and the Seroquel gave me severe akathisia and palpitations. Couldn’t bear it.

Without a doubt, Effexor has been the worst Med for me. Not only did it not improve my depression, it made it worse by making me feel dead inside. Wish I never took it

Worst med was Rexulti. :frowning: It made my cervical dystonia way worse. It was so painful and I couldn’t stop the neck/head movements.

I’m better now, somewhat. I still have dystonia, but it’s not as bad.

Haha - I knew Quetiapine would crop up. Its like marmite - you either love it or hate it.

That stuffs suited me for years.

Melloril (Thoridazine) was a nasty drug the group home owner used to drug me up on - cos i was shagging his wife. I used to cheek them.

Wellbutrin. Was prescribed it for depression before I was diagnosed SZA.

I ended up naked in my backyard chasing imaginary bunnies, thinking I had to use them to nuke the sun and save the souls of everyone on the planet.

I quit that real quick.

It was seroquel. I gained a lot of weight, made me drowsy, I wouldn’t do anything all day, I would be walking and just fall, even in the middle of the road once. I fainted twice and the last time I fainted I fractured my jaw.
