That's why I stopped all prescription medications. I felt worse on the medications and I was getting sicker from the side effects. I was tired of one medication being added to treat the side effects from the first. In addition I was becoming concerned about the long term use of these medications. I won't go back on prescription ADs unless it absolutely can't be avoided. I agree with you prescribing of ADs is trial and error.
I've been off all prescription meds for a year now, and I feel better since I stopped them.

> OK, so after the weekend from hell, and still no damned sleep, I feel lousy. I saw my GP this morning, an dfater bursting into floods of tears, she has given me a few sleeping pills to get me through the next few days in one peice. Just to make matters worse, I've also got a severe ear infection which has spread to my jaw, so that all hurts like hell. And as it was a holiday weekend, I was in the surgery 3 hours!

> Anway, I digress. Meds... I feel like sh*t, dizzy etc etc etc, and I swear that I actually feel worse on all the medication. My moods ~can~ be better, and I ~can~ be calmer, but I can be alot worse, my mood swings worse etc. I know there is probably a drug out there that will be good for me, will make me feel normal again, will make me kinda happy again... But I don't think I can face all the trial and error until that day any more.
