Oh...I'm not really going through much. I am staying alone, i moved out of my families house after being released from, well...jail. I'm living on my own, I don't really like being around other people, I pretty much stick to my apartment and only go out to go to work. I wash dishes...so i don't have to see or talk to a lot of people. I've always been told I was depressed, I don't feel like I am. I guess, i just don't like doing or going around people. It makes me uncomfortable, I hate to say it but a lot of my time alone is thinking about what the next life will have in store for me, if it will be better. I guess i'm just lonely.... As to what i was prescribed, well i was taking Xanax as well as Thorazine. i stopped taking xanax because, well I was becoming dependent on them and using them more and more than was required. i hit some pretty low points while on Xanax. i switched over to taking Thorazine, it is typically given in psych wards from what i was told and is used as a tranquilizer..... i'm rambling...i'm sorry. Well, without saying too much, you've piqued my interst. Maybe it's the handle - 5hadow12ogue... That's unusual! How are you doing, 5hadow12ogue? haha thanks...i like it, i think it fits me.

5hadow12ogue Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 I lived with 54 other "roommates". It was hell. Sometimes I feel like I'm still in the holding cell in county...all my walls are bare in my apartment...that might be why I feel this way. 3800mg of Piracetam daily to help with my anxiety and memory issues.

Moderator Emeritus Rhiannon Posted February 4, 2012 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted February 4, 2012 Hey Rogue, welcome. Started on Prozac and Xanax in 1992 for PTSD after an assault. One drug led to more, the usual story. Got sicker and sicker, but believed I needed the drugs for my "underlying disease". Long story...lost everything. Life savings, home, physical and mental health, relationships, friendships, ability to work, everything. Amitryptiline, Prozac, bupropion, buspirone, flurazepam, diazepam, alprazolam, Paxil, citalopram, lamotrigine, gabapentin...probably more I've forgotten. Started multidrug taper in Feb 2010. Doing a very slow microtaper, down to low doses now and feeling SO much better, getting my old personality and my brain back! Able to work full time, have a full social life, and cope with stress better than ever. Not perfect, but much better. After 23 lost years. Big Pharma has a lot to answer for. And "medicine for profit" is just not a great idea.
