I'm on (for psych):

Strattera 100mg
Effexor XR 150mg

The only side effects I get is with the Strattera and that's only heartburn.

BTW, what does "abnormal ejaculation/orgasm" mean? I have an idea about that. When I was on Melaril as a teenager, I masturbated to the point of climax but I...shot blanks - nothing came out.

They only prescribed that as a leash.

45mg of Concerta for my ADD/Executive System Dysfunction (27mg on days I don't work or have classes)

20mg of Paxil for my OCD Anxiety, and Depression



Both work pretty well. I haven't had a single panic attack since I've been on Paxil, my mood has been better, and I'm doing compulsive checking behaviors a lot less; It's also made me harder to get sexually aroused, which I consider a good thing because I don't need to jerk off as much any more to help suppress obsessive sexual thoughts. Concerta is the same substance as Ritalin, just in a timed-release pill.

200mg of Zoloft a day for OCD/panic attacks (it cuts down on the panic attacks immensely)
240mg of Isoptin SR a day for AVNRT (it's also a mood stabilizer too, which is interesting)

2-10mg of Diazepam for anxiety as needed; .5mg of Xanax for the same.

37.5mg Effexor antidepressant (down from 150mg, which I took for a year after my last major depressive episode - Im getting better!)
5mg Abilify - antipsychotic, but taken in this really low dose it makes me much more sociable and hence happier (as I was getting unhappy due to social problems), and less 'in my own world'. I have even noticed that my eye contact is better than it was before taking the Abilify which is strange with people like my family who I have never looked much in the eyes, it makes me feel embarrassed to do so. It also stops me being so obsessive about things which is good because I am more relaxed but bad because I used to have very strong will power to do things and now I often just dont bother if I dont feel like it. My doctor wants me to stay on the Abilify for the medium term - at least another year. I think he thinks that will correct the problems in my brain and they will stay corrected, but methinks that I will go back to my normal personality after coming off them, however long I stay on them. (He has not diagnosed me as AS and we have not even discussed it because I dont feel like bringing it up with him as AS is not well known here in France). ANyway, I feel happy and as I havent felt this well for that long, I dont want to spoil it by coming off the drugs before I am told to.

Citalopram, 10mg. I was on 2mg of Risperidone, but I stopped that as I hate the sleepiness. Question sleep and all it's motives. :ninja:

They're up there. I think mostly my antianxiety meds. They sort of make me feel like a vegetable.

I take Invega 9mg, Zoloft 100mg, Lamictal 200mg, and Geodon 160mg. I'm just plain nuts! I take it for schizoaffective disorder, panic attacks, and depression/ anxiety.

I thought according to the DSM-IV one can't have both an Autism Spectrum Disorder and a Schizophrenic Spectrum Disorder. :? I'd get a second or third opinion on that Schizoaffective Disorder diagnosis.

I think that someone with Asperger's can still have non-specific delusional ideation but not full-blown schizophrenia.
