I hear many people here talk about what type of medication they take. I was wondering how many people don't take any medication at all. I am not on any medication.
Aw man, the "more than 3" choice didn't show up

I don't take any medication either, and haven't done so for quite a while now.

Two.

One for anxiety. One for high cholesterol.

I have so many meds in the medicine cabinet that I can't even keep track of how many is there. They're mainly for anxiety, but I haven't really taken them in a while because I haven't really felt a need for them and I tend to forget that it's there. :lol:

I've managed to wing myself off a few.

The anti-depressants I can't seem to go without and I was without them for several months. :(

So I take like 2, I'm hoping one day I'll be able to get off Celexa and Effexor one day... /:

I counted all my medication so I had to say three but two of them I dont take for any symptoms of my Asperger's. I have to take pain medication because I have a twisted pelvis and am in so much pain that without the medication I would not be able to function at all. I also have a tens unit and lot of heat pads that help. I am going to see a new doctor and I have high hopes that he can help me and get me off this crap. Ive been through surgery (I also had a ruptured disk) and lots of Physical therapy and steroid injections in my back that did nothing, this has been going on for a year and it really sucks. I really dont like taking something every day but for my pain meds I have no choice. I also have valium that I use for my panic attacks but I have control over that....I only take them when I need them. I use to use ativan too for when I was anxious but I stopped taking that and used more natural methods to calm myself (like stimming).

On a lighter note...does anyone like my new Avatar?....I have Avatar for my Avatar...har!

:lol: I counted them this morning and thought the same thing. It's only 4 different things (vitamins and supplements) but they add up when you're supposed to take more than one of each.

None, though an anti-depressant would probably be a good idea.
