Zero except some vitamin and mineral tablets.

I have found them all to be a waste of time, they just numb the mind and mask the problem.

You're not wrong. But for some they are life-saving though. Sadly, I am not one of them

Used to be 5, now its 3.

How are you feeling?

No Longer Human is one of my favourite books of all time I still have yet to read any more of his works, though.

 

[Whole-Ad]

Cariprazine, Vortioxetine, Promethazine, Trazadone and occasionally Zopiclone. And on top of that I'm day 3 of staggered paracetamol overdose.

its suchh a good book man! i think ive read about 30 haha

 

[AbsurdCapybara]

Bipolar?

Not that I'm aware of, but depression & anxiety.

 

[AerialBoundaries]

0. I'll never touch another SSRI, or any antidepressant in general.

Sometimes the 'cure' is worse than the illness.

 

[NancyVicious]

Used to take 6 different meds. I don't take any now. Sertraline did save me for a while a few years back but my brain was always fuzzy. I've declined to go back on any anti depressants or anxiety meds because I do a fast paced job where I need to be sharp. I don't notice what I need to if I take anything

 

[Harrow]

2 but I'm bad about taking them

 

[Anna.]

Two, but 4 if you count vitamins. Olanzapine and lamictal:/ they dont seem to be working

 

[Sweet Tart]

3 psych meds plus others for physical conditions. Getting ready to try TMS since meds haven't helped in years.

 

[sensenmann]

5, four of them are due to a heart condition.

 

[vitbar]

Three. One isn't for mental health.

 

[ultrasharpy123456]

none I ran out. But I'm supposed to be taking fluoxetine and olanzapine.

 

[waningmoth]

4: fluoxetine, mirtazapine, olanzapine and because im in the middle of a crisis lorazepam as a prn

i know people hate on antipsychotics and i'd much much rather not be taking them but the olanzapine is honestly whats been keeping me alive for the last year and a half.

being permanently sedated sucks but until a couple of weeks ago had been working amazingly well at the cost of cognitive abilities like learning and memory as well as metabolism issues
