A place to vent my frustrations about living in a effed up white male dominated, ableist, capitalistic society. And if you're mean, misogynistic, or in any other way effed up I will delete you. And yes, it is at my discretion. Whine about it elsewhere.

Wine, 50 mg of Topomax, and 25 mg of Seroquel.
I can't wait to get to the doc as this is not a promising long term solution.
That sucks. Have you tried combining therapy and/or alternative medicine with the drugs? I'm just asking because the traditional route doesn't seem to be working. I took anti-depressants for a number of years, so I'm not opposed to drugs, it's just that other things can help too. And I realize it can be difficult to get help beyond a prescription. I have been really lucky in finding a good therapist and having good coverage.

ReplyDeleteI do acupuncture and I've been in therapy since before the medication. I can't do the herbs with the drugs b/c of possible bad interactions. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI'm bipolar, and could never sleep until I started on Ambien. No hangover, either, the way there is with seroquel.

Ambien doesn't work AT ALL. Neither does trazadone. They treid those long before they tried seroquel, which worked for awhile.
