I have an appt with a new psychiatrist today, any suggestions for meds to ask for?

I might have an SN source but if not/to combine with SN, I want to get psych meds tbh lollll. The system sucks so might as well play it. Which psych meds are the most likely to end in ctb?
I have major depressive disorder (so far untreatable), autism, ocd, and bad anxiety.

You just want fast acting benzos like Xanax, vallium but not necessary

Meto is important to stop your nausea and vomiting while taking sn, you don't want any other hard drugs for sn method

amitriptyline (overdose will give you a heart attack) + a benzo (so you're unconscious during it) would be ideal. i'm not sure if doctors readily prescribe amitriptyline anymore but it's worth a try, maybe say you've had no success with other antidepressants and/or it's helped someone in your family

Pretty much share the same diagnosis with you :) So far the only thing that worked for me was Parnate (MAOI) compared to the other countless medications.

Others mentioned diazepam, i would probably ask for domperidone which could come in handy as an antimetic with less possible side effects compared to meto.

exactly this. tricyclic antidepressants are the most dangerous. dont appear suicidal at all.

Sadly I think they know that I've been suicidal in the past

Would clonazepam be fine?
I wish there were more meds they readily gave out that causes damage. Is propranolol worth a try?

Only amitriptyline is lethal in high doses (8-10g), but other meds like benzos can be useful as sleep aids/ anxiety reducers.

Seroquel also can be useful as both a sleep aid and antiemetic.
