I'm currently taking 225 mg Venlafaxine 100 mg Sertraline 40 mg Latuda and 25 mg Trazadone.

I notice that often my eyes have a "tired" feeling on movement, as if it takes more mental effort to move my eyeballs. If I move my eyes over a large angle (even without turning my head) I get a pulsing sensation inside my head that is accompanied by very brief rushing sound in my ears. There are usually ...

Since June, I have been taking St. John's Wort 3x a day. For the first month or so, it worked great. I had felt happier and less blank than I had in at least a few years. I thought it was great because it worked and had so few side effects, compared to prescription antidepressants I've taken. But after that, I've pretty much gone back to how I was before. Recently I have stared to ...

I haven't started taking this medication yet but I just recalled hearing about this causes men to grow breast. I'd rather absolutely lose my mind than to grow abnormally large breast, anyone know the level of risk involved with this?

I have tried 6 different antidepressants, and am now on Lamictal for my 2nd time. My last psychiatrist was leaning towards Bipolar 2 instead of Major Depressive Disorder, my previous diagnosis, hence the Lamictal. Its been about 6 months now and nothing has really changed in terms of moods. I'm usually a constant low, with a prevalent dip of the lowest of lows on the spectrum.

So I wanted to take more than just Beta-Carotene. I started taking Asaxanthin too. Both ...

Before I go any further before you try stuff at home please seek professional advice especially on stuff that your not sure about if you can talk to a pharmacist they also maybe able to at least tell you what interactions to avoid. The list of stuff I'm about to tell you about is what I use or will be using for general health and to deal with the side effects of any given antipsychotic. ...

I have been taking seroquel for only three days now at a low dose of 25mg and I want to stop. I don't like the side effects of constant fatigue and malaise. Would it be safe to stop completely now considering I haven't taken it for long and it is a low dose? Can I avoid withdrawal symptoms this way? Or would it be best to taper down?
Thanks ...

My psychologist is recommending I ask for propranolol from my pdoc, cause of triggers that keep triggering anxiety attacks and crap - which is obviously a hinderance to therapy. :roll:

I did a search for it and doctor wikipedia says it's commonly used by performers for stage fright, and in treating hypertension, anxiety and panic. So it seems like it's right up my alley.

Does anyone ...

Ok I am a high functioning paranoid schizophrenic I've always liked the effects and thought they helped me when I took adderall before I was diagnosed and started taking antipsychotics but I was also able to function without it for the most part.
Now that I'm on antipsychotics I feel I have to have my vyvanse in order to function and be alive but I've come to a point where I been taking a second ...
