Just curious if anyone else feels like I do, that the meds made me crazier. I was pretty irresponsible and manic all the time, but after meds came into the picture I became really paranoid and all sorts of other nasty side effects.

I was way more unstable before meds. But I do get bad anxiety and from time to time paranoia -- side affects from meds.

Yep, far more crazy before meds and like Nicki I've had some in the past that have triggered more problems than they sorted.  The only weird thing with me is its so varied on how effective my meds are.  Some days it'll take an hour or so before I start to level out in some shape, other days I don't seem to be leveled out for hours.
