Pills Pills Pills Every Day of the Week

My regular dinner a few years back.

I’m thinking of switching my meds. I’ve been mostly stable for about 6 years, since I went to McLean hospital in Boston and they got my meds right for the first time.

But I feel like things aren’t working anymore. As I said before I can’t read or understand things, I’m gaining weight at an incredible rate, and Abilify is making my blood sugar skyrocket.

The only thing is, I’m afraid of all other meds. I’ve had some bad experiences. When I took Lamotrigine I blacked out completely, fell on my coffee table, and bruised the inside of my leg so bad I could barely walk. Wellbutrin made me hallucinate and throw up, which is a fun experience. Seroquel made me eat myself out of house and home. Lithium did nothing but make my skin bad. And none of them made me stable.

I’m going to make an appointment tomorrow to talk to a doctor about it, but if anyone knows of any miracle drugs I’d be happy to hear.
