About my Medicene

[schrei jess]

Okay I have three prescriptions treating my depression: Welbutrin, Effexor, and Zoloft (I actually was just taken off on thrusday).

Lately, I have been falling asleep before taking my medicene and like sometimes, I will feel amazing with not taking it. Last night I forgot again, and I felt pretty weird - like the day wasnt real or I wasnt there, it didnt feel right.

Why is it that sometimes I can feel manic off of it, and other times like the day never happened? What makes it do that?

And also, this week, I forgot like three times in a row and it felt like I was detoxing from hardcore drugs - is it supposed to be like that? I had trouble focusing my eyes, very much trouble walking or supporting myself, lots of trouble sitting up, trouble moving my arms or legs, I felt extremely weak, and hungry like I hadnt eaten in a while.

Is it like REALLY bad to forget to take medicene like that, should I be way more careful?

You should try and be more careful. I've heard welbutrin messes with people.

Well if your doctor gave you that prescription, I think you should follow it... I think you should just take your meds and see what happens... if it still messes you up, then go to the doctor again and tell him what happening, because meds can react different in each bodie ;)

I remember my medicine just made me a bit stupid.. And well hazy. But yeah what mRojas said, well the part about talking to the doc about it

Actually, the really bad thing is - I havent taken the welbutrin in maybe a month or more. It smells REALLY bad because of the sulfur content. It reeks, like seriously, I just dont want to take something that smells that bad. So I believe it's just the effexor screwing me up.

And it isnt like I am trying to not take the pills, I would take them its just two problems 1.) the smell, and 2.) I have to take it twice a day, once in the morning, and once during lunch (or after school). It is really hard to remember doing that, sicnce I was taking the other medicene before I went to bed - that is just what I am used to, it takes a while to get used to new things!

well if you think you can do better without the drugs then you should stop taking them, because thats exactly what they are ..drugs. they arent good for you but sometimes there better then the alternative.

If it really makes you feel a lot better when you don't take it, continue to take it and talk to your doctor about how you feel.

Could turn messy if you decide to stop without talking to your doctor.
