we all have personal stories about our meds .....what we have taken.....what works and what doesnt.......
i just wondered what has been the worst one that you have been perscribed for whatever reason.....either it did nothing ,made you worse or had horrendous side effects

Hmmmm.... Most of the meds I have been on and no longer take is because they stopped working for me.. Trileptal, Ambien, Rozerem, Zoloft, Lexapro... and back in the day Prozac. Luckily I have never had any adverse reactions to anything I have taken, so no realy horror stories to tell. I just take things for awhile and bam! They stop working. So far so good with my current cocktail though.

Lithium was the worst for me. It worked good until I reached the desired dose, then seizures began severely and I constantly tremored. I broke out all over in what the doc called "acne" lol. That was sure as hell the worst acne I've ever seen. I was a wreck until it was discontinued, then poof, all my swelling went away too.

worst thing i had was the intro to zoloft,i think it was because i had been pumped full of diazapam for about a week i missed a week of my life almost in a coma it was like a psych ward from a horror film,then the zoloft had me so anxious i was always tense and i broke one of my teeth clenching my jaw i thought aliens were coming to take me away i wouldn't turn out the lights and i couldn't sleep it really was very scary,i have the type of hallucinations that you feel,it still happens sometimes but that week it was almost constant,it feels like lightning inside your veins or electrical charges going through your whole body under the skin.i try to block those whole 2 weeks from my mind,it makes me start to panic in fact i will shut up now
