FeralCatman Posted December 13, 2024 Posted December 13, 2024 Apparently scientists are now learning that the brain of the mouse is actually not a very good analog for a human brain and in this article one of the scientists is even quoted as saying I guess we don't know the human brain as well as we thought. 😳 After reading a ton of drug studies over the years and seeing how much of the initial data was obtained from experiments on mice and rats and rabbits instead of humans it helps me to understand even further why this stuff is so unpredictable and dangerous. It seems that recently more and more researchers and doctors are speaking out against the use of non-human subjects as a means of developing and testing drugs for human use because there are way too many differences. Duh 🤔🙄 Turns out where all the victims of a bunch of know nothing bozos who thought they knew more than they really did. https://studyfinds.org/unlocking-brains-black-box/ 1 Current Psychiatric Medications Paxil 10mg daily (a.m.) 2017 - Present Carbamazepine IR 150 mg twice daily (300mg Daily) 2011 - Present (Currently Tapering) Past Psychiatric Medications From 1994 to August 2021 Seroquel (in Recovery since August 2021 final dose 6.25mg), Depakote, Lithium, Risperidone, Xanax, Lamotrigene, Olanzapine, Lorazepam, Welbutrin, Trazodone, Oxazepam, Gabapentin, Abilify, Topiramate, Prazosin, Ambien (See Attached Spreadsheet And Seroquel Tapering And WIthdrawal Summary) Current Non Psychiatric Medications - Levothyroxine 88mcg (a.m.)-Vitamin D3 1000 IU (p.m.)-Fexofenadine 180 mg twice daily - Azelastine / Ipratropium / Nasacort Nasal Sprays - 0.1mg clonidine nightly Other - Fish Oil Twice Daily-Multi-Vitamin (a.m.)-Vitamin C 1000mg Daily (a.m.)-Saline Nasal Spray-Salsalate 750mg twice daily PRN, Diclofenac Gel on affected joint PRN-Magnesium Citrate 250mg twice daily Quitting Seroquel_A Vacation In Hell_Redacted.pdf Other Documents https://www.survivingantidepressants.org/topic/26099-feralcatman-recovering-from-seroquel/?do=findComment&comment=633907 I AM NO LONGER ACCEPTING PRIVATE MESSAGES.

Yup, that about sums it up. 1 Disclaimer: This is not professional medical advice but is based on personal experience only. 1994 - 2017: Prozac, Cymbalta, Celexa, Paxil, Wellbutrin, Zoloft, Seroquel, Buspar, Lorazepam, Xanax, Ambien 2005-present: Trazodone 50 mg 2017: Effexor XR 37.5 >> 75 mg 2020 (March) - Began 10% monthly taper of 75 mg Effexor XR (in hindsight this was much too fast) 2021 (Sept) - Completely crashed at 12 mg with horrific symptoms. Went back up to 37.5 mg but kindled myself (held for two years) 2024 (Avg. # of beads per 37.5 mg capsule = 117) - 1/1: -6 (111) | 2/1: -5 (106) | 3/1: -5 (101) | 4/1: -2 (99) | 5/1: -3 (96) | 6/1: -4 (92) | 7/1: HOLD | 8/1 -4 (88) | 9/7 -4 (84) | Oct. HOLD | Nov. HOLD | 12/1 : -1 (83) 2025 1/1: -1 (82) Other medications: Levothyroxine 50 mcg 🔑 A Key to Survival: Turn outward, not inward. Use the art of distraction to focus on anything but how you're feeling inside. Never give up hope that you'll make it through and heal.
