Interesting picture. One in off antipsychotics I’m going to do my best to stay away from meds. Supplements are the way to go though.

latuda made me feel like I was on cocaine. That â– â– â– â– went in the garbage.
Mine is Zyprexa. Made me feel foggy and hazy. And the weight gain…ugh.

clozaril. hypersalivation, orthostatic hypotension, my bloodwork started getting messed up, and i was down to one crap a week. it was a nightmare.
Haldol. It have me terrible veritgo and n made me feel like I was in hell.
I took an antibiotic medicine over an infection and its reaction was so awful that I took the risk with the infection rather than continued the antibiotic.
Seroquel not when you take it when you withdraw and abilify.

Risperdal for me. Ruined my life. I am now on prolixin.
I used to take prolixen tablets without water when I was out in public and couldn’t get to water or was to busy to get some liquid. I would just suck on it like it was a piece of candy. It was the foulest tasting medicine I ever took. When I was in the hospital we would get in line every night for our medication, they would give me a small cup of liquid prolixen and a small cup of orange drink to mix with it to mask the taste. I remember once they ran out of orange drink.I said,“That’s OK”. And I drank the prolixen straight. The girl behind me was impressed. She said, “Wow! How did you do that”? And went around telling everyone in admiration. I was digging the attention!
depecote for the weight gain (only took it for 3 weeks, and seroquel for the blinding headache it gave me that lasted longer than 24hours.
Venlafaxine (Effexor)…awful in doses not previously tested on humans…terrible withdrawal even if I took it an hour or two later than usual…and I’ve been told it could have triggered my psychosis to boot.
(I blame myself for this for the most part)

thorazine or mellaril. Thorazine put me to sleep all the time. Mellaril made me feel like a turd. I ebndured stellazine for a number of years. I welcomed the coming of the atypicals.
isnt that a good thing cocaine makes you confident lol
It’s a toss up between risperdal and Effexor .
A mothers love… “Oh you broke your leg!”…I’ll give it a kiss and it will be all better!
Mind you, Reboxetine pretty bad for me so much so I’ve been classed with a allergy with it on my medical file never mind psychic file.
Any of the typical anti-psych’s, but especially Haldol. I was totally demoralized when I was on that drug. They were the worst years of my life.
I had a bad reaction to a Prolixin injection once but I wouldn’t say it’s a bad drug. I do not like the sedation of Seroquel and if I had the option, I would choose a different one to use.
Won’t ever use respiradone or haloperidol again. Just awful.
