Rj,
As everyone knows, psych meds don't actually work. You're not saying what "works" means for you. I think I recall you said amphetamines work for you still. Well, the only psychotropic that works is amphetamine, so there you go.
You have a classic case of a failure of expectations. It's not the drugs not working so much as you having too much of an expectation for what "works" means. Over time, you will come to accept that medications are not cures for mental illness, and have their limits, and meds only work when you combine them with therapy, surrounding yourself with a positive support system of people, and engaging yourself in exercise and throwing yourself into work and volunteering 24/7 so much that you cease to have the free time required to worry about whether a med is "working" or not.
You have too much free time, and that's compiusing your problems.
If you have psychosis, and experience positive symptoms despite taking an antipsychotic, you can try Clozaril, but again, I can't help you if you don't define what "works" means to you, so i don't know your symptoms.
> i've asked this before and you know I could just go back to the post where I first posted this. But like I have said the resistance to medications, there's got to be a awnser why these medication take little or no effect at all. I take them every night and everyday and its like my body doesnt at all respond to them, sometimes it may have a small effect but it doesnt last and I think its a placebo effect.

> its hard to understand because there are some babblers here that may have an effect from a medication but they don't do well with it. It's not working at all in this case.

> Does anyone know like someone who specializes maybe in this. Like the body system, where they could like do some tests? bloodwork...salvia test, anything that would detect that these absorbed, then after that's been figured out, i've gotta find more reasons.

> Just anything...SLS, Jedi, Dr-Bob?? Phillipa? anyone here that knows maybe some aspects of why this is happening.

> Much Apprication to all babblers who have posted to my posts. Thank you, and much reguards.
