do meds do anything??

Posted by obsidian on March 11, 2008, at 22:11:56

about seroquel

I don't understand why this med works for me...
it's only 75mgs and it really makes a dent in my anxiety...but why?
perhaps it's simply the sedation and it giving me more than adequate sleep?
perhaps it is some type of placebo effect?
I remember ugottahavehope talking about seroquel, so I was curious about what they might have to say
I'd rather not take it if the only thing it's got going for it for me is the sedating(histamine?) thing
but there have been times when seroquel has made me feel pretty darn flat
would benadryl do something like that?
I don't get it.
I kind of get the feeling that seroquel couldn't really do much except at fairly high doses.
I am afraid that I simply want to believe in this med without any real concrete reason

the thing is...I'm not sure I believe in any of my meds....
effexor- well I know when I feel withdrawal effects, but does it do anything otherwise??
who knows?
lamictal- eh, I haven't got a clue on this one, I take it for the hell of it I guess, I don't know if it does anything either

I keep wondering if I have psyched myself into thinking I need these meds? how can I know that?
go off all of them I suppose?

klonopin is the only one that's freaking obvious you know?

is there anyone out there with any confidence in psychiatric meds for people with things other than obvious psychosis, bipolar I?

maybe I am just one characterologically screwed up chick hanging on to pills instead of a teddy bear?
maybe pez would do the trick if you called it something that sounded psychopharmacological, like..... let's see
getupandgoafy
ezybreezypro
feelinsupro

eh...I'd throw the whole lot of them out if I had the guts :-(
